Just looks a bit worn to me.

Looks like the real deal: Brock wheels, kit, plate, seats, and I can sort of make out the extractors.

They didn't all come with a 9" did they?

First impression I was thinking genuine. Can't see any Brock badging on the back though. Nearly mint? hmm..

An EA Brock wouldn't have the power to turn a 9"...

I dont think there has ever been a good reliable ford..EA's are just a little worse, everyone knows it so whats the point in going over it all the time? Just gets a little repeatitive.

I was having a stab at the marquis GM; dont fret though, I learnt to drive in a 351 Marquis...I have fond memories..

Anyway...while it might be a brock, the cert plate is still cheap looking. Its liek the 007 was scribed my a 2 year old!

Your 2 year old worked for Brocky? Cool!

Pension section would be for Camry drivers though?

I've been telling people for years - Fords are sh#t!

But EA's are more . They hold a fond place in my heart because I crashed mine so often. I feel a bit guilty towards the model, perhaps.
