Hi All,
Thanks for having me !
My name is Ivan and i live in Gisborne Victoria Australia and i am currently building a 1970 Ford Torino GT.
I thought this would be perfect place to get some info on this vehicle for there a very few here in Aus.
I hope i don't upset too many of the purists on this forum for i am having difficulties in finding parts here in Aus and i import most parts from the US.
I have always liked my American Muscle and the Torino is very close to one of our iconic Australian Ford Muscle cars XA XB series Falcon you can see where the Aussie makers got thier ideas from !!!.
I hope this note finds every one well and i will post some pics soon on where i am up to on the build.
Cheers and Thanks,
Ivan

Welcome to the forum!  I have upgraded you to a full members, so you have full forum privileges.  Post some pics of your '70 when you get a chance.  We are a pretty easy going group, so I don't think anyone will get upset, even "purists" here (not sure there are any).  Feel free to share pics of your Holden and Vette too!
