Craig or Pickmeup will probably know the answer to this one. Here in Perth there were a few Beddies that had XD Ford Falcon fronts grafted to them are they or the guy that did them still about?

I like that black and white one, the front end seems narrow or is that how they are?
make it reliable, or smash it with a big hammer

The black and white one is a 4x4 beddy. There seems to be a few 4x4s out there. Maybe they are not as rare as we all thought.
