There is history behind this car and the owner and some of the people that have been around the club of a while will pick it and work it out.

its a genuine brock.
brocks had a leather option.
it doesn't have the brock wheels because they were sold ages ago, the owner we knew tried to find a set but everyone wanted too much for em.

100 points to Dan! it was brockfordsrule. The auscar mags are a bit of a give away. The car was owned by his dad and he swaped him for his AU falcon wagon, and he drove it from NSW to Melbourne and had it down here for a couple of years, before his dad wanted it back. So the car went back to NSW and so did he a short while later. It was a nice car and the first Brock Falcon that I had seen.

Now I remember him. lol. The Chad!

He was going to fit a crate motor into the brock, thats why he wasnt spending money on the 6. 400kw straight out the box, direct fit etc etc.
