I also knew a car wrecker located immediately to the south of the Blackwall tunnel (where the Millenium dome is) that had heaps of old Aussie Falcons, I intended removing the engine from an XA wagon they had and dropping it into the LTD.
i heard about that breakers yard also but think hes long gone.

Good to see!

I saw my first Landau coupe in Scotland- just outside Perth when I was much younger....I swore that one day I would get one and well, some dreams become reality I guess!
Suffice to say that if we move back to Scotland the LTD and Landau (and probably a late model Falcon) will all make the trip with me.
