Just put some fuel in it and get a transit slip from the rego mob, it looks ready to roll in the photos ;)

Just checked on google maps, it's only 726km and all down hill, best check the brakes work before you start off 8-)

I have a spare 5 bolt 260 Ford V8 with toploader transmission that may be available when I decide to use the 289 or the 260 in my Tiger project. :twisted: :twisted:

What, like 460kW turbo 6 you mean :lol:
What sort of 6 cyl? I have a few 4.1 alloy head 6 cyl engines and a wicked turbo set up, sans turbo, of the original set up when we were campaigning the TC Cortina, even an orginal AIT turbo manifold, the one that came out on the XE turbo ESP
