The Larry Ormsby Scrapbook – The Ford Years is a brilliant, high-quality 285-page hardcover book detailing the early years of the Aussie drag racing legend’s career at the wheel of his trio of tough, record-setting GT and Ford factory-backed GTHO Falcons in the late 1960s/early 1970s during the muscle car era.
Ormsby’s Falcons were tough and earned the support of Ford head office through Big Al Turner, the man responsible for the Lincoln/Mercury Funny Car program, who moved to Australia to run Ford’s down under racing program.
The book also features racing results of the day, extracts of race reports from RODsports magazine, rare photos, and never-seen-before documents such as Ormsby’s ground-breaking Ford contract and the formation of ANDRA
