As an Aussie I have to say I’m disappointed there hasn’t been an up to speed episode on the Ford Falcon yet. An absolute icon in Australia and the bread and butter of young car guys/gals all over the country. $500 AU falcon with a welded diff and stockies anyone?

The E49 Charger R/T with the 265 Hemi is the Valiant I want ;-) . The Phase 3 GTHO was reportedly the fastest 4-door in the world at the time, good for 140mph from a 4-speed, and those power figures are said to be more like 385hp, but they downplayed it for "social and political responsibility". So much history.

@mitchellbaker4847 3 года назад

Story rates 8/10, gets higher if you mention: -Chrysler Aus did it behind ma mopars back by squirreling away 1/7th the budget (approx 1m) -the development of the 215 from its humble beginnings through the 245 all the way to the 265 all through boring it out on a block with already thin cylinder walls and having to re-tool to allow this. -the engine failures on the engine dyno (the Aussies went full send for 10 hours with standard plugs) (when the yanks said 10 hour test) -getting the Italians involved to fix the lean issues on the mixtures on one and 6 especially. The Charger has a heck of a story.

I have to say I love the look of the montana, definitely similar to a 2012 Holden Colorado with the curves etc, since its based off of a hatchback it certainly is a ute, although with front wheel drive its essentially a Jumbuck...Which means its the last of the utes.

Not one of those options contained the folding mirrors. Seems the only models that had this feature were only available in Canada. Not only that, but the wiring harness was so different between the two countries that it could not be easily retrofitted.

The Chev Montana was also sold in South Africa and was a continuation of the Opel Corsa Bakkie (Bakkie = Truck out here). Corsa's were a line of small hatchbacks and sedans which included a small bakkie, load 750kg's. In 2011 Chev took over and re-badged it as the Chev Utility for a year or so using the original Opel styling and the following year brought out the Montana calling it the Chev Utility. The indicator/wiper levers are repurposed from the local favourite, the Opel Kadett. I owed a '94 Kadett for 14 years, 1.6is, Short range gearbox, 4-1 branch, 50mm freeflow, 272 cam, Unichip, Vernier gear, Dropped, TSW EVO-R rims, punching out a whopping 78KW at the wheels and 160nm twerks. Now I own a Chevy Ute/Chevy Montana, standard but with my old rims, warranty is up soon. Reliable and trustworthy, I miss my Kadett but I do appreciate being able to cart shit around in my small bakkie. Unfortunately GM pulled out of South Africa a few years ago but parts are cheap and there were well over a million sold here, unlike the next cars. If you read this, please have a look at some of the hottest, unique to South Africa cars, check out the Opel Kadett SuperBoss, 2L 16V, N/A 168BHP, the local BMW 325is killer and the Opel Kadett 200TS Golf GTI killer. The Superboss was designed for '91/'92 Group N racing with a Cossy head and upgraded internals along with a locally designed LSD, all attached to the Opel C20XE 2.0 16v, specifically built to beat the BMW 325is. Won on sunday, sold on monday boys. in '93 Opel went a different route and focused more on safety and luxury than performance. Delta who distributed GM was still into racing and wasn't happy, they imported 2.0L turbo engines usually used in the Opel Calibra, all wheel drive, and mated them to a version of the locally designed front wheel drive LSD and a 6 speed gearbox, this is 1994. Not many of these machines survived due to the unruly behaviour of the 203bhp front wheel drive monster, torque steer and understeer being the main culprits to squirly drivers.

Those engines produced 370 brake horsepower at 6000rpm." These engines had the $250 QC (quality control) option. This meant your engine was blue printed by Ford Works Race Team mechanics.
