My passion has always been for motor cars of any type.
As my employment had always provided me with company cars, I had the ability to have project cars also. These cars varied over the years from 240Z Datsuns, Jaguars, Holdens, Fords, Mini Coopers, etc, in fact around 70 cars over the past 50 years.
Recently, Gary, a great friend of mine offered me a unique Ford Capri from Victoria that had sat on a Ford dealer's showroom (Highway Ford, Maitland) floor for nearly 22 years and was then put in to storage when the dealership was sold. Gary purchased the car with less than 100km on the clock, as he saw the value in it. When it came time for Gary to sell it, he thought of me straight away and knew I would love it.
