Ford Fairlane, which in itself is a LWB version of the Falcon, however in this case been made into a limo.

It will probably have the Windsor 5.0lt V8 or 4lt straight six

Indeed. Looks like a Falcon Ute tray on the trailer too?

I’ll take that over the sea of bro-dozers that has infested the land.

Edit: Got an opportunity to actually watch the whole thing, and that’s a nice build. He went to some effort to get all the ‘97 stock stuff in and working.
And I’ll have you know I painted the driveshaft one my Crown Vic when I had it out for a u-joint. Black, but still.

Found out my brother in law's friend *works for a tuner shop and designed* a popular G-wagen conversion for the Suzuki Jimny.
So I looked it up and found the also do this:

And this for the Wagon R:

And omg I haven't even scratched the surface of this amazing rabbit hole yet!

There are a few companies that do cool poo poo like that.

Check out dream factory blow http://www.blow-net.co.jp/



It has always kind of irked me that all the tuner full body kits for cars still kept the basic shape of the original. Like roush and saleen mustangs swap the entire front end but it still looks like a mustang when they could have gone nuts and made something unique.

For those that might be interested, the Feb 2020 issue of Hemmings Classic car has a bunch of articles on 80s piles of poo poo. I haven't been through the whole issue yet, but I just read some poo poo about the Ford EXP for example. And a small blurb about the 1990 Fiero.

Also, apparently Henry Ford's car got jacked in 1922, so like a straight baller, he just goes the gently caress to one of his factories and takes another from the store room.
