Thanks must go to Jesmol on the uteman.com.au website for directing me to this place. I LOVE IT! I have only just joined and there is so much to read and look at, I could be here all day or week :)

A little about myself. My name is Simon and I live in that small klingon island called Tassie. Many other Tassie people on here? I saw there is a guy from the Tas XR Club - heh, didnt know we had one! Has it got a website?

Anyway, Im 18 and have been a FORD man all my life. Following in the footsteps of my pop (oh and dad!). I drive a XB ute which is undergoing a heart transplant. It is getting a 96 (?) model XR6 and 5 speed shoved in. At the moment it is just running a Webber carb. Havent got it back from the mechanic yet as they got sent the wrong gearbox, so I have to wait a bit longer.

Im off to browse the forums, have a good one all..
Simon

Welcome, hope you enjoy it here.:s2:

The ute sounds good, I wouldn't mind putting an XR6 motor into an earlier model Falcon too.
