Default vehicles required

Can anyone that owns one of these vehicles below and is available this Sunday all day contact me by tonight please. Vehicle must be clean and original inside & out ie. no mags, no big sound systems and no lowering( or noticable lowering). I'm sure that there will not be any under bonnet shots so mods there will be irrelevant. Must be in a condition suitable for a photo shoot. Doesn't have to be a show car, just a clean, undamaged original example. May be your mum or dad have one?

EA Falcon sedan - base model
AU Falcon sedan - base model

There is no payment involved for your time and no one will be getting into the car other than yourself to position it for the photos. You will however receive a CD of the photos and the publication it will be in. Photos will be taken by professional photographers.

Sorry I can't give you more details other than when I speak to you.

Send email to ams77falcon@hotmail.com including your name & phone contact details. First in best dressed
Thanks
Sam

no one? There must be someone with a factory standard car. How often do you get the opportunity to have your car in a mag?

The location is out towards Geelong way between 9am to 5-5.30pm

Let me guess, the history of the Falcon series that's running in Street Machine?

I put the owner of the XA GT on our shirt in contact and he's appearing in that issue... which reminds me, is it out yet?

Yet the mags are happy to make money off the use of the cars? Hardly seems fair does it...

The owners are happy to have their cars featured and usually see it as a great achievement to have a car featured in a magazine.
