The car originated in Sydney as a demo model. A family man bought the car but soon realized it wasn't family orientated. A lady at the Gold Coast then owned the car for 20 years. I am the 3rd owner and have owned her for 15 years.
I have changed the 6cyl to a V8 289 Windsor with 600 Holley, 4 Barrel Edelbrock inlet manifold, dual point Autolite Distributor bored and shaved 30 thou, dual 2" exhausts, C4 Auto 2,500 stall,8 3/4 mustang diff, brake upgrade front and rear to XY V8 standard and to top her off she has Dunlop 70 spoke wire wheels. Her paint work is Black Jade. She only ever had one re-spray and that was 30 years ago. She has stood the test of time well.
