    Yeh - pity about the music, is the car at 7.44 a Studebaker?
    and what is the red fastback at 1.08?

    More XA,B,C's


    Sorry for the quality of these from old VHS. George Sheweiry's Cobra stars in the first clip then followed by Kirk Benge's Torino in the second. Gas pedal seems to have only one position in both cases....

    The red XB coupe in the second video I believe to be John Pope's car - wonder what became of it. Remember the Jewel Green XA 4 door, saw it race a couple of times, a nice car, but havent seen it for years. The blue XA 4 door was apparently a genuine RPO83 - at least according to its then owner, many, many years ago when I spoke to him. Unfortunately, I dont know who either of the XA's were owned by, but nice cars.

    For those who don't want that bloody song playing over and over in your head long after you've finished watching the video, here it is without the music. Ford V8 makes for a much better soundtrack.

    No Its not the Pope car as we sold that back in 1991 to be driven on the road to a guy in Thames, but the car has not been seen since. Jewel Green xa will be Greg Deach which he still has but now also has a red XA coupe race car

    Hey Paul, that video is awesome! Thanks for posting. Man those things look a REAL handful! Thats how muscle cars should be.

    Yes 7.44 is a Studebaker but 1.08 has me thinking I thought it was a Broadspeed Mini but it looks too long in the bonnet. Perhaps it is a low volume Aussie car like an early Bolwell.
