Hi guys,
if we each had a crystal ball all those years ago!
For the guys in my age group or older will remember in 1971 you could buy a RT Valiant E38 charger for $3975.00.

That was a lot of money back then because our dads who worked then got no Superannuation and the wage in 1971 was $6,497.08 a year.

I have a Wheels Magazine dated January 1979.

A Ferrari 308GT4 was $46,418.
A Fairmont GXL was $9030.
A Holden Monaro GTS Hz Model was $9192.
Even in 1979 still lots of money then. If i did have a Crystal ball back then i would have asked my parents for a loan and brought a Ford Cobra.
