Default Look what showed up in Bendigo..







Sure gets around doesnt it!

Its here at a ford dismantlers in Bendigo of all places. Apparently the guy says hes going to fix it up but I dunno.

Bad luck Ben! Was an awesome car. He told me he bought it for around the 3k mark which was a good pickup considering the work thats been done to it.

I wonder if the guy wants $200 for the 5th FTR!! LOL. Still cant believe how cheap you sold Mick those 4 FTR's!!

I wouldnt be surprised if this guy gets the car looking brand new again, he's always buying wreaked cars and fixing them up.

He told me he always go's to the auctions down Melbourne and only really buys XR's,Fairmont's and anything with Tickford stuff on them.
Anybody want an EL Tickford bodykit, he'll have a few kits there for sure!
