Joe polite was my favourite back in castlereagh days in his xw and xy ...will never forget the time he smashed the 9inch housing and the pinion was on the floor still connected to the tail shaft

I remember cruising Parra Rd. I was a bit too young for a licence but my uncle had a big bock Phoenix that went decent. He had a Windsor powered Model A roadster in later years, he got me my XM Coupe and we put a hot Windsor and top loader in it as my first car! Went decent for the day, man the old XT non vented discs worked hard! Back then the fuel prices didn’t hurt, but tyres kept me poor! R.I.P. Billy Boy, I miss ya.
