Default Rushforth Wheels go right hand drive!

We've sent quite a few sets of wheels to Australia now and love their enthusiasm for American muscle but as far as I know, this is the first set on an AU only model and they look killer! Many thanks to our good friend, Mick Tonna (try saying that name without an Australian accent) for picking out a set of 18 and 19" Rushforth Rated-Xes for his 73 Ford Falcon XB.

Thanks Mick!

sure did and I bet with today's EFI controls, you could build it just like that too. Though if you run a Magnacharger, you're doing the same thing only the "switch" is vacuum controlled your foot.



Congrats Jay. They look great on that Falcon
