The Beast is alive

I just recieved an email from one of the guys doing the work on Eric Bana's Falcon. The car is alive again. She looks fantastic.
As you guys may or may not know the car was severely damaged in a crash in the Targa Tasmania race Eric was in during the filming of Love the Beast.
You can get it here and see all about the car.

Check out how over built everything is..what an awesome job they did!
Good Luck with her Eric!

let me know if you have any issues with the pics they are viewing a little odd on my computer but i think it's my machine.

Thumbs up

That's great news, I'm so glad he had the heart to have her rebuilt. The "Love the Beast" DVD is makes great viewing, so I highly recommend it.

Hope to see this car burning up the course in short order - with better results next time 'round.

This is truly awesome! I love those tyres. I love the car. Not sure I would Pro Tour a Chevelle but this Falcon is ballsy.
