I am a depot co-ordinator for a sea freight company here in Australia. Every so often we get some cars from the states. The last few weeks we have had a lot. Here are some pics of the most recent arrivals
this one has a genuine 490 miles on the clock

AWSOM..... Roger is that l'ill sports car a Pantera? Something like that. The guy told me its a Italian body on Ford running gear. The motor is mounted just behind the seats. I think the badge on the back says Toranado |

It's a Pantera alright...don't know what the odd badge is about..... As for the others.... I have a few of them......  1968 Mustang coupe...pretty plain jane but factory bench seat...only a few built in 68. My son and I are doing a complete restore on a 66 2+2 Mustang 270 hp, top loader 4 speed. |

All of which will go next to be converted to right hand drive if I am correct?
I'm diggin' the Vette too Paul, but the Pantera would be nice. Don't see them too often these days......Of course, the things were notorious for overheating problems. The 351 Cleveland is a finicky big block anyways, and being mid-mounted lended to cooling problems. The pain-in-the-can reverse oiling system was troublesome too. I constantly had oiling problems in mine that was in my 72' Mustang. The oil tends to pool in the heads and gum up big time.

Sorry guys but its not my actual shed. Its one of the sheds at my work place that I supervise. I should have worded it a bit better.
The 62 Vette is the one with 490 mikes on the clock and is in original condition. According to the broker its worth more than all the rest put together twice
