Hey guys, not sure which section to pop this in..
Basically im getting married at the start of December, and i thought i would try my luck on these forums to see if anyone has a really good example of a classic ford v8. I'd love to use a coupe, like an XA-XC but with a bride to be in the car, i think i have to settle for a sedan. If anyone in melbourne is happy to help out, please reply below or Private message me. Realistically, would only require a bit over an hour of your time and happy to work out payments in private. Thanks for your help in advance, Leigh

Coupe would not be too bad if bride in front, coupe's generally have huge doors. I know Chargers do not so sure of the Falcons.

pickup at yarra glen (Alowyn gardens), drop off is at kangaroo ground (inglewood estate, 20 min drive).
would do some photos etc at yarra glen and maybe somewhere on the way also. Id say a 2 hour window would cover it. Id love an XA-XB-XC GT if possible, but im open to differing offers. thanks guys

Can I ask a strange (but relevant) question?
How big is your wife's dress?? Xa/Xb/Xc coupes aren't the easiest cars to get in and out of - especially when you're wearing a bridal dress....... I have been a wedding chauffeur for 6 years now - and have driven various cars for weddings - so keep that in mind... Sure - the cars look good in the photos - but if your wife wrecks her dress, or has a hard time getting in and out of the car........ It will be your fault ........ (thats part of being the husband I suppose!) Just bear that in mind....... All i'm saying.........

I have no idea on her dress size, i dont imagine it being too big though. Its all secretive from me.
I figured a 4 door would be best for the simple fact of making her live easier with the dress. Considering that the 20 minute car ride is the only time we'll spend alone in the day to relax, it would be nice to sit together.

I can ask some of my coupe mates (Photo op's never turned down!!)
My XB has a roll cage, so it isn't the easiest thing to get in and out of, unless your misses ain't 6"4' Here are a few of our cars.  The XA would need to be soaked in Detol before your wife would jump in it though!!
