Not sure if it is the real deal but it had all the right bits.
Looks like it has been around the place a bit.
Cheers Paul.

I find the above pic disturbing. Just can't understand the logic.."if there is any"..in burying an HQ SS under all that rubbish.

Thats really sad that pple let classics go to waste like that, would be interesting to see what the body is like under all that mess and how it come to be sitting in that state perhaps another "I 'm gunna do it up one day" love the Q's actually looked at doing a SS or a Sandman before I bought my van . hopefully someone will save it.

Yep Craig,

My cousin has bought it and is going to rebuild it to 'fairly' original.

Hi Mark.
Thanks for thinking of me.
Did your cousin find the car or the picture.
The reason I ask is that I have seen the picture in a few places now but know one seems to have any information on it at all.
Here is another SS that is just sitting there.

It is a very original car right down to the master cylinder etc.
The owner is a ford guy and he is leaving it there to rust just to pee off the Holden owners.
Cheers Paul.

Bit slow on my post.
So its good to see that it has been rescued, if he needs any info re the SS tell him to feel free to contact me.
Cheers Paul.

That just proves how smart Ford people are and just how used to throwing away money they really are. There's no better way of throwing away money than buying a Ford.
