It's definitely a much nicer car than the poor old EA in the garage. It's very smooth and comes up a treat when it's clean. That makes 7 cars in our family at the moment, 3 are owned by Damo ;)

That looks sweet as Damo! NExt to black red is the best standard E series colour.
Go the black stockies too, it will look tough.

ok this is what need doing -
windscreen and wipers Handbrake Both Front tyres (got them fitted today) Centre Exhaust (got a quote of $120 fitted from exhaust fix but that was for standard exhaust, so it will probably be more like $150) Bonnet Struts LHF tierod Adjust front wheel bearings LHR wheel bearing Both lower ball joints LHR number plate light Parker lights Right brake light I'm just gunna get the place to do the ball joints, tierod, bonnet struts and windscreen. So it shouldn't cost too much. |

Sick.
They didn't pick on the rotors, parcel shelf or gas so that's alright. Wipers's worked fine from what I saw, don't know what they're on about but they're not that dear anyway. Bobby has a set of balljoints for sale, so you might want to get 'em off him and have them fitted. Other option is to get some knuckles out of a low kay EF or EL from Just Falcon's or something, that'd be about 25% of the cost of getting some new ones fitted but obviously new would be better. Wheel bearings aren't that dear either. Sundeep |

Good looking thing. Nice paint for a red car. The old owner must have looked after it. How Many K's

The mudflaps were removed last night. :P They left a few marks but still looks heaps better.
I was surprised they didn't mention the gas too, when I asked him about he didn't even realise it was there. lol. "Nah mate I didn't look in the boot" |
