TTT Accident & Restoration - Ep2 After proving so popular it's my pleasure to welcome Phil back onto the channel in this second part of my visit to TTT in Korumburra, South Gippsland.

I recently saw a Mustang II Cobra at an event in Melbourne and though it brought back memories of a certain blonde crime buster of the period, I couldn't get away from that fact in terms of presence, it failed miserably when compared to those cars that had worn the name in previous incarnations. It also reminded me of the Aussie Cobras I'd come across of late, not least the one being readied for a full restoration after being crashed some 25 years ago. Now I'm not one to concern myself with what others think about my ride, heck, I use a Corolla to get about. Only sure way of guaranteeing I'm going to get some place if you ask me. But given the comments the 'stang II Cobra has got on the socials, you've got to wonder if you're some sort of pariah turning up at an event and everyone passes by to por over a FSM Niki (Fiat 126).

So what would you prefer? A bashed up Aussie Cobra (and a lotto ticket) with the potential to build one that could bring in way in excess of $300,000 or a $10,000 show car that will likely even have your mates shunning you in embarrassment?

TTT built up a reputation in the area for building quality restorations as well as their bread and butter crash repairs. What took my eye each time I passed were the two iterations of Ford Falcon usually parked outside. One, a four door Cobra the other a yellow GT. I had to go knocking and glad I did. What a lovely chap Phil is. Been painting cars since the mid 1970s and what he doesn't know ain't worth knowing. In this episode a Chevrolet 3100, another XC Cobra Falcon in for crash repair, a Holden ute and a very special 1969 Mach 1 Ford Mustang.

My name is Dave and I simply l love old cars and visiting workshops to chat to the people working on them. Added to that, I devour car content on youtube so I thought I'd join in and make some myself.

Hopefully you might like to come along for the journey as well.
