Fords pre 80’s were awesome anything after the XB is shit and with Holden anything after the vk can fuck off as well.
Those front guards are mint
Fuck all rust in the girl bit in one front door n surface rust around front window
Front guards are the real deal not welded in and the back panels etc where cancer normally is no rust at all
Modified for fuel injected lot of time got spent braking system engine bay mods etc etc
She goes hard as Fuck for a six but I'd love to upgrade it to a small block

Thanks Ozy
Did you grow outside and did you encounter any problems during the hot wet months

Ron
Yes Ron, from late 70’s to late 80’s. I started in my mid teens. Had some old timers around and we did community grows. Always knew where each other were, and shared our seeds, n rotated our plots. We were in the good rich dark red dirt so didn’t have to add anything much, other than having to cart water in during a dry spell. Wild life n bugs/pests were our major concern. Yes, there were some issues, and that’s why I mentioned planning your grow so you’re not flowering and harvesting during the wet season. And only grow outdoor Sativa strains, they’re generally genetically ok with those conditions. You want the higher humidity when it’s hot anyway. If you’re only yard doing it, make sure none of your surrounding plants have powdery mildew or any signs of mould, otherwise treat them or get rid of them if you can.
Don’t dismiss the info on IPM and rezza’s advice. That OGS IPM also has Aloe, Kelp and AgSil, although don’t use it after the flower formation. Keep good soil ph also.

An they say peter brocks a legend? If i remember he fuckd his car then jumpd into his team mates car an still won the race slowin a cple cars seems less of a cheat the old brocky
I just googled his "cheating scandal" and found out my rose-tinted view of him was pretty ill-informed..
Seems he was much less than "Perfect" than I previously thought.
15 year affair with his wife's best friend doesn't look good no matter how you cut it.

...and yes as far as cheating goes, unfortunately racing has always been tainted by money and politics just like everything else.

ehh chill man. I’ve known guys who got their seed while the tracking still listed them as in the air. Most tracking hits a wall once it lands in Australia

In general I'm not really a car man to be honest
Like Holden I've owned hk,lj,vh slx,hz
Along with a killer TD cortina
Mazda 929 was the closest I got to jap crap and now I've just held onto the hz cos I know I won't get another old school car
But cars in general to me take a back seat to anything else I'm into in life
