I was once a FORD man.

After doing an apprenticeship at GMH Woodville many years ago, and doing 15 years service, I am now a HOLDEN man.

This is BIGGER than That. This is an AUSTRALIAN TRAGEDY

This is the beginning of the end guys. :(

Australia cannot afford to lose this Mighty Brand.

Ford stands for First On Race Day ;)

Sad Times.

Gillard, now is the time to stand up. :evil:

STOP ALL IMPORTED VEHICLES INTO THIS ONCE GREAT COUNTRY!

Free Trade will make us a 3rd world country!
