Hey,

Funny you say that the F**d guy was pretty taken back when I said something similar on Sunday.

I was asking why they had a boring stand,let's face it the old mustang was nothing compared to the guys next door,the new car( they have one here)? well has all the switch gear the red fusion has ,his response was "its about the family feel" and I must say I was riveted to the spot over the self park demo and the poster signing

Everyone please raise your hand for the Ford team wasting their time worrying about snippets like we have here.

Waves at the usual management losers *wave*.

It's just as ridiculous as councils fighting a $100 fine, but spending $1000s in legal fees.

Nikked update your pics with the escort grille,turn the indicator up like FG from the side and I think thin the lower air intake and you have the front pretty much

On the rear take out the curves to the chrome in the boot cut it in half with colour on top, the bumper curves down and across the boot and put the current pipe area off GS and you can sell it to the mags for a grand

Top work

With regards to the grill, is it overall shape, or will we get the chrome slots?

Hey,

Do the escorts grille but with a thick chrome edge like the Sydney show flash

I've review your work leave the lower intake until you change the grille and resize to match

And again top work wished you could have worked for me some years ago

Just like escort don't change the bumper ends just turn the line up like escort

I'm enjoying seeing all of these photos but you've got to be sensible about this. If some of Ford Aus's employees are somewhat morally dubious, they're completely right in seeking them out. Do you think Detroit is going to give Ford Aus projects if the public (and their competitors) are seeing projects well ahead of their public debuts?

If you're going to ignore the part of your contract about secrecy, you may well ignore other parts of it (ie hours worked) and I wouldn't want you working for me.
PS I realize spyman doesn't work for Ford, but I dare say that he's being tipped off by people that do.

That looks more like it except the tail lights are a little deeper I think.

Also the rear bar has reflectors in it similar to the VE Commodore.

I always (and still do) hated the reflector strips on the back of Commodores. "Why wouldn't you black them out?" I always ask myself when I see one.
