out for my saturday morning long distance grocery walk.
........lo and behold.  1973 ford falcon XA. pepper red. GT. 351 cleveland. (aussie ford that is). however ......styled in detroit. last of the aussie fords styled in the USA. put me in a good mood all day. owner was standing nearby and i had a quick chat. freshly restored by him. cracked a joke about it having its nose up like a 914. ......he knew what a 914 was and asked me why i said that. told him i had one that was one shade of orange off his pepper red. or was that pepper orange? ie phoenix red. or is that phoenix orange. he knew what phoenix red was. car blokes. top blokes.  70s. top era. go fast stripes. wild colors. emotionally crippled cars suffering from epa strangulation pillow suffocation. sure beats the 21st century. what shade of grey is that again. oh yeah. mirage grey. ah i thought it was saharan grey. nice polar silver SUV there mate. its not silver. its uber unsaturated black. tops. beaudiful touch screen you got there where the gear lever used to be. yeah. gear levers are for pensioners.
