Mick Fabar's 1929 Ford steel-sided pick-up hot rod won five awards on debut at the 2005 Summernats. These awards include top hot rod, most outstanding hot rod, top body work and paint, and top under-carriage.

Mick's hot rod uses Toyo tyres: Proxes T1-S on the front axle and Proxes S/T on the rear axle. The Proxes S/T is available in a range of large section width sizes to suit rim diameters from 15" to 22". The specialist size range and aggressive appearance has helped make the Proxes S/T become popular with hot-rodders in Australia and the U.S.A.

This hot rod will be appearing on the Australian national show circuit in 2005, as well as in the U.S.A. later in 2005.
