Sweet! My old 4 dr Aus Val was in Hornchurch. 11.72 in the 1/4. Great street/strip car on a budget. Not proper American Mopar, but quicker than old mate's 'Stang!

A mate of mine from Ilford bought his first "Yank", it was an Aussie Fairlane with a cleveland[he always mentioned the cleveland].
We were looking under the bonnet when he went to see it, we rode[motor bike]
200 miles to see it, and I asked something about the vin plate, it probably had Ford
Australia on it or made in WooWoo or some other aussie sounding name, bloke said
that's a place in America;-)

a lot of our older ford pickup trucks were made in Canada in right hand drive (they switched to LHD as there neighbour is)

My best mate lives in Thornlands, small world.

I know 2 blokes in Thornlands, Hugh and Tugger, guess the Jock, guess the Aussie! Have a Pom mate up the road from there, Ashley.
