Another Aussie car on it's way to the States

Post by **OzHemi** » Sat Aug 30, 2003 11:58 pm

I know this is not a Falcon, but thought some of you might get a kick out of seeing an Aussie Charger getting a little bit of a resto before it's trip over here by my mate Shane at Californian Image in QLD....... Car is about done now and should be leaving with a couple of others in about a week.. Instead of posting a ton of pics here, just take a peek on a Mopar board I frequent and check out this link when you get a chance..

So what do you think ?

CHARGER's are the sh*t, if i wern't a FORD man, i'd be a CHRYSLER man.

Actually, Shane is a Ford man first off ! Here is a pic of his genuine '73 XB GT that he has decided to send over in the container with the charger... talk about clean

i thought you were a Bluebird man Rocka !!!

Hemi's are the pick of the bunch. Keith Black didn't base his big-block on a Hemi for no good reason. I know we have gone over this before, but really, what else has there been since the MaxWedge 440 that really pushed the envelope ??

btw did almost 300kmh the other week on a test ride - 2003 ZX12R Kawasaki. This thing motors like you would not believe. I was in heaven. You too can have this performance for less than 20 grand. Thankyou Mr K

You guys must have seen Ghost rider, if not so do so.

it is actually quite unbelievable, but true. That guy in Ghost Rider is fully loopy. I only do the fast stuff on long deserted back-roads (also known as the Hume Highway 1/2 way between known radar hot-spots), not through city streets !!!! he must have the largest cojones in the known universe.....

, i guess anything over 240 is quick enough, but you just don't seem to notice it until you glance at the speedo for 1/100th of a millisecond.......wish I had the $$$ to get a ZX12R, would be without a licence inside a month

ps Gordon - will have an order over to you shortly for that video.
