A great effort! I see everything really is upsidedown down under!

It is built on a chassis that is mostly the same as the one on the 8448,
the main change was to move the steering wheel to the other side of the
car.

It features a V8 engine, 6 speed manual transmission, independent rear
suspention, air conditioning, alloy wheels, sports tyres and more.

The only thing I would change if I had more lego would be the length of
the wheelbase and especially the tray on the back (which is hard to see
in the pics). I accually saw (after building this model) a ute that
looked just like my model.

Please let me know what you think of my first model & my first attempt
at photographing the model & scanning the photos.

[1] a UTE is similar to a pickup truck, they were both offshoots of the
same vechicle which was created by ford motor company australia back in
the 50s or something.
