Not yet but I plan to as soon as possible.

BTW: I've heard they've built as a LHD in the US then shipped to Australia, then converted to RHD by Ford.

How that makes any financial sense is beyond me.

That makes as much sense as placing a milk bucket under a bull. But I'm sure Ford has their reasons?

Ahhh, Gina. Proof that some attractions span generations. Bless those hot females of every age.

Then to insure the cars turn the correct direction, they have to ship all those Left Hand steering wheels back to North America where they put them into new cars.

In a world where the CHP pulls me over for a burnt out tail light how the heck is it legal to drive those on public roads?

Easy, just like in Florida where they removed the sound ordinances, because so many minorities break em, they concider it "Racist" to enforce certain laws

Will soon be home to that bad boy, and Epic Jet, two T-6's, and a Hawker Sea Furry. Oh yeah, a R-44 too plus misc other flying stuff.

And..... looking over the left wing is the famous "Knee Deep Brewery"

The lesson today class is that "petroleum pays"
