He certainly injected some excitement into Ford Australia.
Thanks for that info.

He sure was an interesting and great fellow, and injected alot more than excitement into Ford.

Ford need someone like him now!

Thanks
Jim

I didn't see it, but that doesn't mean its not there. All the other petrol heads at work seem to make good with my mags. I'll keep hunting. If it's there, I'll send it to you.

Geoff Polites was one of his disciples back when he joined Ford straight out of University. No wonder he did such a good job. As Bill Bourke used to say "there are only two things that sell cars, sex and muscle". Amen.
