good question...
front grill... not sure if the door handles are colour coded on eb's. i know eb fairmonts dont have colour coded door handles like ed's. did EB2 Ghia's have a leather wrapped steering wheel? this is really minor, but the metal in ED doors where the door trims screw to have the holes already for EF trims. EB's dont have this...

gawd the amount of threads you post up about sprints, wagons and ghias makes me think if your every goin to up grade to a new one wardy lol!!!
prity much both the same car, only thing you might find is different interior setups, besides all the other stuff thats been covered, ed had a different rocker gear setup to the ea-eb, but nothing to be of concern... |
