Talking My New ED... the monty!

Hey guys,

Came across this beauty about a month ago on ebay. Wasnt far from my hometown so i went and had a look. Didnt look too bad and drove well so went away for a bit and gave an offer. Regardless to say got it last weekend and the mods have already started!

So far has had rebuilt auto with shift kit and 2500 hi stall, complete new twin exhaust into single 3" so its a good basis to start from and only 240ks. absolutely love the V8 rumble and stally!

Heres some of the ebay pics...






And Now...





Ive chucked on my Gladiators and put a sony CD/MP3 player in on the weekend... what do you think?

Yehhh its going on the road asap and then probably being sold, i dunno... well see. i had the gladiators with good tread so i chucked them on. the other set of 5 16" tickfords will be polished then sold. oh and as i was under there changing the wheels saw it had near new brake pads and king springs (lows i think..).
What price would this fetch on the market when back on the road? All funds will be going to the XR i think.

Cheers, Shan.

The chrome for the front and rear bumpers should cost about $30 but unfortunately the side chrome is actually part of the moulding, and you can't replace the chrome without replacing the whole moulds
