It's too long to be a two door I reckon is this the same one that was at MMS back in the day? (maybe 2003)

Looks ok, but not something I'd waste 80k on.

Hilliers, at it again?
Roofline doesn't flow at the rear very well but it would get some looks.

Ah, no thanks. I can think of much better things to spend that sort of money on.

I doubt Ford Aus will ever make a Falcon coupe again. Monaro sales aren't that strong as they first were and last time we did it we had to whack blue stripes on them to get them out the door.
It's a shame really. Quote:

Nice, but I think the roof needs to be 2" lower and the front seats need to be 3-4" lower.

I'm pretty sure the conversions will set you back $30k from Hillier Brothers, so thats about worth it.. if thats your thing. I'd rather invest into a GT with money to do it up.
