Its cant be a brock, anti lock brakes, and LPG i highly doubt it.
He lists no build number, and uses the word 'prototype' they have just sucked in alot of people IMO.

interesting to know. I noticed wheels were different. If it was such a 'one of a kind' thing you would keep it all original

Well that depends, anyone can buy the brock bodykit, so no big deal there, and also I dont see a picture of the engine bay, the reason I high doubt it has the brock twin cat exhaust, why, casue it aint a real brock.

I know who won the auction! "gt191_guy" is Jeff Bloom, he of http://www.aussiemusclecarmuseum.com.au/
I bought my set of XD ESP globes off of him. I also remember the buildup and competition for the prototype Brock Falcon in Motor magazine, might have to dig it out.

Oh, as for the original exhaust? C'mon, the car is 17 years old!
LPG? It was probably fitted sometime in the last 17 years. To alot of people the "Brock Falcons" simply don't exist, or are just an EA with a body kit... They're worth nothing more than a normal E series to anyone who isn't an E-series Anorak or Brock Fanatic... remember, they were shortly after the whole Polariser incident....

Tidy looking car. The 18" Azzurro's do look good on it. The Brock kit is the best looker on EA-ED Falcons.

hrrmm might be a brock but without pics of the customs bits eg. exhaust and the other bits and pieces I for one know were done to them couldnt really say. also it could be one of the really early ones and not a B8(fully optioned) one. so many variants not confirmed without a book on its history I would not be convinced.
if I can find the link to the brock ford web site ill check the details http://www.geocities.com/brock_fords/ need to know rego to confirm but colour and location do match the prototype maybe it is the real deal Last edited by brockfordsrule; 24-08-2005 at 03:27 PM. |

This car was in the a magazine, or website or something. Along with his brother, who also has a Brock Falcon, it was advertised there as a Brock Falcon Prototype too..
I remember reading it not long ago...

It is the Brock prototype, Ive seen it before. The owner is the brother of 'MrBrock' (Cameron) on these forums.
He didn't buy it new, the previous owner fitted the LPG etc. It would only be worth a lot to the right person, most Ford owners will say 'meh, Peter Brock touched it' and the Brock fans will say 'meh, it's a Falcon, and an EA at that'

Nice car, but the Azzuro's look crap on it.
I wonder if he is selling the original wheels with it?

I think the original wheels are the Altezza's, I've never seen a pic (old or new) with the 16" rims Production Brock's use.

I doubt that the original wheels are 18" Azzuro's, when the car was released 18's where very exotic, and exspensive.
Azzuro's where not even released way back then.

If that's the original car that was in Motor Magazine it should have a pink/grey velour interior with Recaro style front seats. I've got the magazine with the full write up and pictures, even the poster!
Copped a canin' on the road test lol. Sundeep |
