Hey Paul congrats. You could have gotten rotw on the engine compartment alone. Nice work. beautiful truck.

Congrats on ROTW!

That is a very nice truck. Congrats on ROTW.

Nice truck bro! i really like it!.

Congrats! Very clean looking truck.

Congrats on ROTW, but the engine bay??
 

Yep, definitely a nice 53 Efy, but the engine bay is not kosher.

As xran has already said, it's a pic of a Ford XY GT engine bay, but I think it's a 71 not a 70 model. About mid 1970, Ford Australia went from Windsor to Cleveland 351s, so as that is a clevo, I'd say it's odds on a 71. But why was it used to determine ROTW? Definitely the wrong bay.
The shock/spring towers and engine bay shape, should have been a dead getaway that it wasn't a 53 Efy.

Having said all that though,,, it really is a nice truck. Lottsa work, skun knuckles and dough too Ill bet.

As a past winner, I welcome Paul to the Aussie ROTW club,,,lol.

Hope to catch up with you somewhere.

Cheers, Ron.

Sweet looking truck!

Well deserving ROTW; Very Impressive work! Love the two tone interior.
