Aussie cars what we Aussies don't see in the styling

[rpmcarter]

Chrysler Australia took a different tack on the Aus muscle car stage by going with a triple webbered straight 6. Chargers where the top dog but there was a 4dr option in the pacer. These 6cyl cars where actually quicker over the 1/4 than the GTHOs. GTHO think 4dr Boss same spec engine in a falcon that slightly lighter than a Boss 351 Mustang

Ford Australia took many design cues from American cars.

I found a picture of Falcon Coupe with the front clip from a P6 LTD. This coupe has had minor rear wheel arch flares done so as to match the flares on the LTD guards. When I saw one in person like this many many years ago in my home town I thought it was the most awesome thing ever.....and still do!
