Hey Hey Birdo Gang! Thank you so much for watching and supporting us unlike that pesky Shannon’s! 🤣 In a couple weeks we’ll be in Maryborough Victoria for the Max Max 45th Celebration then we’ll be in Albury for the Van Inn Show and Shine Hovell at Tree Park Hume Dam

[@daveamies5031]

See the difference between those insurance companies was obvious Enthusiast, are actual car Enthusiast's so much so that they actually knew who you are, the Shannon's people clearly didn't so clearly they are not real car enthusiasts.

[@madskelli]

@@daveamies5031 and most off all we appreciate the support the viewers of the channel! ❤️

[@judgedread-q4t]

Go Wastie and Skelli! Love seeing all the rare cars.

[@SpecialTBK]

While I love the Car Shows. After this episode I think you should try doing some more one on one’s and interviews with the cars and owners. Love your work team Wasties.

Congratulations on finally finding a ford Falcon 1969 surfer Roo Ute well done mate🍻

[@WastelandFirebird]

Thanks mate! It was on the list for a long time.

17:32 its like Dodge Chargers and Mercury Cougars - they're watching from behind wearing sunglasses.

[@BradGryphonn]

Mad Skelli smashes the camera work once again! Any Tickford cars in amongst all of those Fords.

[@arkhsm]

YES !!

[@WastelandFirebird]

A Tickford at the end!

[@noelgibson5956]

In the late 80's and early 90's, there was some model sharing between different manufacturers in Australia. Ford and Nissan rebadged each other's models, as did Holden and Toyota. That Nissan Patrol you saw was likely rebadged as a Ford Maverick.

[@brancomarcina5740]

My favourite channel on KZbin!!!

[@NoName-t7e]

Oh man this is hard to watch! I live in the cold north of Europe but I lived in Queensland for a while. Its my favorite place in the world. Would love to have made it my permanent home. I can just feel the sun!

[@WastelandFirebird]

Yeah Brisbane, Surfer's Paradise, Byron Bay, are all AMAZING.

[@Teriyaki_Emu]

G'day Firebird... "Mate" congratulation on finally finding the mysterious Surferroo ute... Hopefully one day I too will get to see the majestic beast with my own eye's.... Thanks for sharing....Cheers.

I think I've seen you , but I did some research and found this account and now I enjoy watching your videos - are you postings a video from Barossa in South Australia

[@madskelli]

Yes, it should be out in the next four weeks.

Year: 1969 Price New: $3000 Price Now: $70-$80,000 Engine: five-litre V8 Body: two-seater utility Trans: four-speed

[@WastelandFirebird]

If that's all it costs I'll take it.

[@russellmcdowell1193]

Really, you think it's worth $70to $80k. You have to be kidding. It is No.1 off the line, it is the only original one left of 5. Even a good ute turned into a GT ute is worth $100k. Get a grip mate.

[@JosephCowen-fz8vj]

Yeah that might be 4.9 litre V8 , in Australia 302,s are 4.9 litre .

[@JosephCowen-fz8vj]

Ha i got the Burt Reynolds comment ! " I only take my hat off for one reason " but Sally Field isnt there ????

[@WastelandFirebird]

Exactly!

[@andymills2985]

Great video 😊

[@jamesgovett3225]

The “Ford” Nissan Patrol was built by Nissan and badged as a Ford Maverick in return Ford built the Falcon ute badged as a Nissan, this was back when in the 80’s into early nineties when the remnants of what they called the “Button Plan” named after a Labor politician who tried to get rid of too many auto manufacturers here in Australia, well it worked too well as now we don’t have any! but this particular era was when Toyota gave GM-Holden one of their cars and Holden built the VN Commodore badged as a Toyota “Lexon” after the dude that built the “Winged Keel” in secret that went on to win the “American Cup” Yacht race, Ben Lexon, Holden also supplied their Starfire four cylinder engine, a cut down down Holden six with a trimatic auto trans to Toyota that powered the Australian built Toyota Corona which turned out quite ordinary to say the least and should be forgotten about!

[@Lee_Adamson_OCF]

Man I wish we'd gotten utes in the states.

Especially this one. Wowza!

You found a Ford Falcon Surfaroo another ute ticked off and the only Australian ute left is the Valiant Town and Country ute and they were more than 5 made my brother had one back in the 1970s

That one is on my list! I just hope I don't walk right by it....

Go to Bathurst this year. Would be a great video

I was planning on that but I don't know if we're allowed to shoot footage during the event!

[@theveeman]

Hey Firebird, now that you have found the last car you been looking for and it will be the end of your show, "here is a plan"!! start your own insurance company. Firebird's insurance you can trust. and insure the cars you been looking at.🤔

[@WastelandFirebird]

I like it.

Here's a challenge for you, find the first car to do the big lap

[@daniellebcooper7160]

Was that the car that came out of South Australia in the early 90's?. I think they wanted 6500$ from memory.

[@nathanspeed9683]

Noooo! This can't be it! haha

[@icascone]

22:16, just out of Memory (so not very good info here), but I know for Corsair was made few years and wasn't really replaced by anything... They say the Mark 3 Cortina but was the Corsair was also a bit controversial by it's "funky" looks...

[@stevedavis2473]

Find a giocattelo. There were only 15 made.

[@WastelandFirebird]

I actually saw one a few months ago! But Mad Skelli wasn't there and I had no idea what it was or how rare it was. If I see it again I will get it! kzbin.infoUgkxwOUum5t6pKKTko7_FV1QI2n2yUuxhk9q

@WastelandFirebird nice. I think there are only 14 left. I know the yellow one was destroyed in a fatal crash at the sundown raceway during a test day.

You haven't really explored the world of French cars yet and since as an American you've been deprived of them, it's something your should explore.
