Pretty sure the GTU was either a project done by Deakin Uni students, or Ford/Tickford apprentices. The same way the Sandfire ute came about I think.

The rear shot showed all the back cut out (no roof or tailgate) behind the rear seats and it had a mini bike standing up. I think it was a Peter Ardcipane (spelling?) modification. |

Good thread indeed, I remember drooling over the Sandfire ute as a kid. Anything with sidepipes is a winner.
Was the T series ever shown as a concept or was that awesome black T1 TS50 at the MMS just where it debuted? While at Ford I recall trying to ask about a EL GT prototype that was sitting out back rusting away, im sure its been crushed by now when the office moved across the road :(
