Saw this in a driveway while I was walking my dogs and thought it was amazing, just saw it again while looking for another pic on my phone and thought I'd share and amaze others :D

If it was an A9X, Mick would be drooling but I don't think the 1900cc variant will blow his frock up. [smilebigeye]

I should clarify, I have no idea about the historical significance of this car, I just couldn't believe how much moss was on it.
I can say I used to own a 1967 XR wagon (289, bench seats, 3 speed column auto cruiseomatic) and a...drumroll...1971 XA Fairmont GS COUPE!!!! 351 4 speed top loader silver, real head turner that one!
However both too much work for something that drives like crap and gets rusty and it's only real trick is to turn heads...prefer a Land Rover that can take me to exciting and interesting places.

Well infected with the typical Torana C pillar tinworm!

I reckon the owner would have had plenty of knocks on the door asking if it's forsale.
Pretty sure a guy I know is building a replica A9X

Rusty old Sunbird with the starfire motor. Not exactly a ball of fire.
As far as A9Xs go, of the 100 ( 2 doors) they made there is only about 500 left. [biggrin]

Doesn't even have to be an A9X to get me drooling. I embarrassed myself in front of this on the weekend.
