Boy with all these Fords being given away we better not let the Commodore guys find out, "See can't even sell 'em, have to give 'em away".

A free car is a free car - regardless of the Holden/Ford/whatever..
If you've got a use for it... or the initiative do something with it... then why would you say no!?? Well done, I'd have taken it too... You can't go wrong when the price is

Sorry, no sale Mr Nice Guy. It's great having a daily driver with AC, especially with the weather we're having, 38 yesterday, same today and 40 tomorrow.

Not having a go at your good work, but I find that armorall tends to leave an oily film on the windscreen after a while in the sun and makes surfaces look strange if not then kept up. I much prefer 303 which leaves a better, clean matt finish and doesn't seem to smeer the windscreen. Cheers |

How does that work for transfer of rego?
Do you need to pay stamp duty if the sale price was $0 ?

I wish I had the luck of getting a later model Falcon for nothing. I've already been lucky enough to get a Cortina for free, but I would also like a new daily drive car which is a little more contemporary as well.
