    Steve,
    That is my nephew Michael, who was born in 1967. There is a long story to this day that I will send by PM.
    I have been trying to identify that decal on the rear of the Fahey Mustang. Please let me know the answer.

    I agree with John, it looks to be a Boss Andy sticker.

    GD66- do you remember seeing these at the front of front guards of XW, XY Falcons?
    Was there a Kangaroo with similar pose spinning its tyres, vaguely remember something- Super Roo?
    During 70s, I am sure they added an extra 10 mph along with stripes.
    Escorts tended to have similar Ray Stone Superford sticker from John Andrews

    Youre looking at it......Lol
    Couldnt find one by googling also , eh Ken?
    I remember Barry McConnachies road MK2 Zephyr had them on when I was set to buy it in 72.
    So , look through NZ Hot Rod mags. or Motorman for this period.

    Were they part of the Super Ford promo back then. Had them on a Anglia way back and sure I got them from Andrews Super Ford. Amazing really things that were stuck on tool boxes, mirrors, lunchroom fridges, and all gone. if we had only kept 1.

    That Cambridge colour was the bees knees on this car.

    Good crop Steve- we can see rego here FH6867 same as the day when it collided with Uncle Jack.
    And you said waaaaay back-The End...never over for rivet counters....
    Rod- could be some stickers on your Escort under all the paint.

    GD66- well found mate , the Super Roo.
    Saw in Motorman today-
    1....a Kangaroo, similar wheel spinning-without Joey- with tail, as stylish exhaust- Rohd Runner, coming through- after ROH wheels.
    2...An Auckland company showing a Kiwi in similar pose with really wide wheels and a spoiler between his wingtips...I know, go figure.

    Here I go again off the topic but I found these stickers from the 1970s. Some are unused and bring back good memories of that era.
    (note; I did not paint over them !)

    .
    Is that the key in the rear "boot" lock ?
    Did I miss my chance to drive it away ?
    Would that key fit in the ignition ?
    I wait 45 years to ask these questions !

    Mustang Crash

    Not a great photograph, but I found this amongst my collection of PDL Mustang going off at Champion in 1976 after tangling with Jack Nazer.

    Wow, I've not seen this one before, or in fact any shots of the Mustang in its last big shunt. This effectively ended its career as the PDL teams front-line car. Thanks Ross.

    That off at Puke was with Paul Fahey in Cologne Capri (in behind Mustang)

    As normal Ross you in the right place again. You must have a big room full of photos.
