An Aussie Falcon 250 ci inline six? Had one in a Falcon ute years ago, 3-on-the-tree :oops: with a LSD 8) . Great for "drifting" with no load in the back. :D

Is your "barn" on the old army base at Papakura? Has the look of an old "stores" shed. :)

actually that flat front Transit should be a V 4 cyl as the original 6cyl Transit had a pushed out front to fit the bigger
engines of 200ci (3.3 litre) and the 250ci (4.1 litre) {local ambulance station had a few of these back in the late '70's}
i like the 1750 Maxi motor in front of the cop car
