Greetings from Northern NSW

Post by Bruce »

Hi All,
My son and I purchased a 96 GR for $150 on Gumtree a few months back, in the hope of fixing it up and Son has first car. Up until that point we had not heard of FTOs. Gr needs front and rear glass....back to Gumtree.....hmmmm $350 for rear and $150 for front...hhmmmmmm, Silver FTO GPX $500. So, now the proud owners of 2 FTOs. One up and running sweet, the other....maybe for hillclimbs. Next job on GPX: Cam and crank seals.

Cheers all,

Bruce

Thanks for the welcome.

Won't be able to get there, broke as a digger after anzac day. Spent all the money on the FTOs.

We'll try for next year.

Cheers

Yep, welcome to the lighter wallet too! There's a few NSW guys about, I'm sure they'll get something together later in the year as well.
