i'm sick of ppl telling me to try him. already did. he was useless. they said to me just because they designed the car twenty years ago doesn't mean they have parts for them


well thats the thing.. mick web took the falcons and added his mods.. so if he dont have the parts no one will. afaik ford didnt stock any svo parts... thats what made them unique and limited, so if there was 200 svo,s made i bet there was only 200 garnish badges made, so good luck finding badges ect..
but in saying that i have seen them pop up from time to time on ebay..
maybe some reproduction ones might be around?? try rare spares??

I saw some on ebay just last week, search on there as they may still be up.

And Papa Smurf, do you think you could get me a price on a BA XR6T fuel reg? They should be 400KPA.

Cheers!
