I will let you know how I go with the Australian Border Protection authorities about any asbestos content when it gets over here.

Re: Asbestos products in a 1966 Toronado?
Thankyou Otto, I have been hoping for an answer like yours, all I now have to do is find a good Toronado. I thought I had found one in the USA, contacted the guy, he replied and told me how good it was and after a spell of not hearing from him, contacted him again but got no reply, although it's sti...

Re: Asbestos products in a 1966 Toronado?
Hello Otto, thanks for your reply to my question, the border protection force in Australia are brutal in enforcing their "powers", there have been reports of vehicles dismantled, holes drilled in the frames etc, if they suspect any asbestos products present, whats worse is that the time an...

Hello to all on the TOA forum. I'm new here and am hoping to purchase a 1966 Toronado, the only hitch that I may have, is that living in Australia, our border protection authorities WILL NOT allow a vehicle into Australia that has ANY asbestos products in it, be it insulation, gaskets, transmission ...
