All those Falcon's just look fantastic.

Must admit the AU's as a V8supercar always looked good.

Interestingly that the EL Falcon has the lowest stats out of all of the Ford cars of this era... even lower than the AU  :o

These are just great. Have you ever been contacted to edit/detail a book?
Surely you'd have a gig at Noonan's if one ever opened up.

You could potentially add Championship wins as both how many and what driver topped the count.
Surprising to see the VY and VZ era, I'd think back and say that Skaife won the most in both models, but Murphy, Tander and T. Kelly all played a hand.

Nah, have been in contact with the Sleuth team a few times though.

Somehow I didn't even think of adding championships won! I will get on that.
