    Another MKI nut joins the Calvary

    Howdy guys, didn't realise there were so many of us out there in Aust.

    To cut to the chase MKI's are all i've ever driven so i've had many. At present I'm trying to get a 2 door 76 with a 2L ABF running. It's been a year but hope to finish around late feb.

    I'm pretty supprised to see few of the guys on here taking on a 20V motor but that was only a matter of time i guess

    Just some pics for now.

    There are lots of us into Mk1s but we were isolated until now. This forum is one perpetual swopmeet, everything you could want turns up on here sooner or later.
