Default Re: Will Ford's Australian R&D facilities survive?

Maybe the R&D crew from Holden and Ford that lost their jobs recently and over the last few years together with a few bob from someone could revisit a modern version of the Bolwell Nagari...Even if some components were outsourced or built under licence , engine/transmission for example......Begin as a kit making company or build to order cottage industry , use new control technology from different Aussie suppliers that does exist and maybe a few of those engineers could work on a car with little or no beholdings to a big brother ..Maybe ol Scomo could sling a few shillings and compliance aid in too to encourage local enterprise..

Shannons TV take on the Nagari period.

Then again ...Australian's designing and building our own car using Aussie materials and ingenuity...Nah , couldn't ever happen ...perish the thought ..
