You can't be deported, Greg.... they send you to Moree or Coonabarabran to slave in the cotton fields!!

Congratulations Darren. It's excellent to see a 50's capri has finally made it's way down here.

Thanks Glen. I was thinking the same thing this morning actually....I wonder if there's any other Capris in Oz?

I suspect that there may be one or two stashed away somewhere, but who knows?

Ford Capris, yes..................

hmmmm... no shortage of Ford Capri's here, but I've never heard of any Ric Capris in Oz ('58-'60 Hollowbodies). As you know any Rickenbacker prior to '64 is virtually unheard of here. I have heard of 1 or 2 solidbody models from the early 60's, but not any 50's models. Would love a 50's tulip body combo900/950 or combo400/450 myself.
