They don't build em like they used to. You hear of old falcons that where purchased new then given a life of hell on farms, thrashed and bashed and never serviced, then they get sold after sitting in sheds and so forth, then you kick it and it starts!! That's tough, and definetly proof that cars in those days where built solid, reliable and robust. I'll bet no customers complained their XY or whatever had diff clunk after 30,000klms. The clevo would have drowned it out regardless, but hey I doubt the reliability of the 9inch was only limited to 30k clicks!

76txcoupe, trust me when I say the Falcon XM/XP aint no tough car. I'll give it full marks for rigidity though.

I think this guy is from the 'Canadian Hell Drivers'. And their team actually drove EK Holdens! Anyone else wondering what those ball joints would look like upon return to mother earth?!
