This is our Van that my husband spent 3+ years restoring, RARE AS was its name when we were showing it at state and national titles. It won many awards and we are grateful now to finally see it again. Thank you for taking care and preserving it as it should be.
-
Incredible collection, great to see some people are still preserving these Aussie icons.
-
Holy crap that is THE BEST Sundowner I have ever seen..absolutely beautiful..I feel honored as an aussie to even witness such a thing..How many people in this country even realise that what they are looking at only exists downunder..don't take it for granted it is the most nothing compares.
-
I was so happy to see an NC Fairlane (and indeed many other Fairlane's) in the collection...everyone always preserves/restores/collects the Falcons, and the Fairlane's get forgotten. Cheers from a very happy '93 NC Fairlane Ghia Sportsman owner. Thanks for the video "Wastie".

It's so good that guys out there have these meticulously kept collections like this. It's easy to feel envy but instead, we should be grateful somebody does it at all.
-
Love what you are doing in Aus. You have more passion in finding the "special" ones than most others from here. Thanks so much for your efforts
-
Hey Wasties!!! Hope you’re having a great weekend! We just got back home from filming at Summernats! We had so much fun! It was great meeting those who came up for a chat!

Geez wouldn’t I just love that XD sundowner especially with its 4 barrel 351 Cleveland, I was caught up in the Panel Van craze in the 70’s as a young couta, and I had a special XB 351 4 speed with all the fruit Van that was one of the last XB’s made, I bought it new from Stilwell Ford in Melbourne and came with a lot of factory GT bits by Ford, Man I wish I still had that car! So much so that I cannot forget it even to this day, so much goog times in that beautiful Ford!
-
That Ed sprint is beautiful!!! I'm no ford fan but from memory they came with a 347 stroker and manual!!! Nice looking car too
-
That an insane collection.
-
I'm jealous of this collection!
-
Brilliant collection😳, and very cute vintage toy cars💝, and yay, bluey is back 👌🐦
-
So many rare and special cars in that one shed. I dont blame you for not knowing as mainly just us hardcore ford fans will notice. But RS2000, EB GT, FG Sprint, ED Sprint, XE ESP,, XA GS, XB GT, XW GT, XY GT... Instant nut busting for heavy Ford fans. Would have loved to see a shot of the XF as im guessing it was an anniversary Ghia although with rarity in that shed it could be something special like the factory turbo variant. Anyway what a beautiful collection.

Faaarrrk. Ford lovers dream shed. Well done mate. 👍
-
Haha that's Justin's old van. Beautiful example. Mines a S pac van and only a 6cyl 4spd but I love her just the same. Go the vans
-
Never seen a sundowner. Buetiful. Thanks
-
Great to see that XD Sundowner even has do it yourself gearbox.
-
awesome to see loads of good old falcons in 1 place👌
-
We had an 81 xd falcon. It was like going back in time when you showed the interior - thanks!
-
Show us some footage and give us some details on the XE ESP. Good to hear the views of an enthusiastic car car that didn’t grow up with the same cars we are casual about but still love.
