| G'day,
I'm John, yeah that's me in the wheelchair, and that's my
Father sitting on "The Bathurst Esky" which was
built by my brother Steve. The Esky was built specifically
to be towed behind my wheelchair so that we would have cold
drinks at arms reach while trackside at the big 1000 Kilometer
race on Mount Panorama, the esky proudly dons the Blue Cobra
Stripes.
The Cobra is my
dream machine, and has been since first setting eyes on
one of these "Blue & White Coupes" in a "Ford
Rules Supreme" magazine that was given to me for my
18th birthday, I'd always liked the XC Falcon, and was privileged
to actually drive my brothers 4 door sedan back in February
'89 (nine months before I started my new life in my wheelchair).
My passion for
Fords was bred in to me right from birth when Dad was the
proud owner of a white ZD Fairlane, V8 of course, this was
followed by that previously mentioned 4 door XC Falcon and
then an XF Fairmont.
Unfortunately,
being the owner of a Cobra is a far off dream for me, but
the passion I have for the "Blue & White Legend"
will be poured in to this Web Site until the dream becomes
reality.
As a reward for
my efforts, The "Falcon Cobra Club Of Australia (Vic)
Inc have made me an honorary club member, and presented
me membership number: 401. On the 7th November they made
my biggest dream come true when I was taken Cruising in
Cobra #376... Wow... What a grin that put on my face. It
is your ongoing support and encouragement as fans of my
web site that has given me this most fabulous thrill and
made my dream come true.
Thank You All,
your encouragement makes it a joy to bring you each and
every update, Happy Cruising Every One, Go Ford!!!
