With all the chat around the EV future, I felt the time was right to return to the Ford V8 fold (previously owned EB2 XR8 five-speed and an AU 220 five-speed).

It's a cruiser, the family calls it 'The Barge' which fits, but looking forward to giving it some subtle upgrades over time and surprising some people!

Original owner kept a full log of dates, costs and parts among a full stamped service history - it's been really nicely cared for and I intend to keep it that way... mostly ;)
Nice pickup lautista. Looks to be a mighty fine example. Welcome back.

Cheers
Stu
