For a while now we’ve all been hearing about the Shelby authorised GT500CR soon to be released by custom coachbuilders Classic Recreations. We’ve poured over the concept impressions, the specs and pricing but we haven’t heard anything about when these cars will be released or at least begin production but now we do. (Read more…)
I was recently contacted by a fellow Australian conducting a very intersting Mustang build and after seeing some photos, short videos and the the upcoming interest from the media I must say this looks to be something I am going to follow very closely. (Read more…)
So it’s about time I gave an update on Damian’s ‘Kimberly’ project. Last update Damian shared with us the fresh paint job but now lots more has been added and the car is on track for a April completion date. (Read more…)

It’s about time I had a holiday!
I hope you all have had a great NYE and are not nursing too big a hangover. I wish you all a great and prosperous new year. I look forward to sharing some great posts, images and mustang movies with you all.

I’d like to wish all of my readers a very merry Christmas. Where ever you are in the world I hope you have a joyus day. Thanks for taking the time to read my posts and follow my story. Hopefully Santa is good to you all.
