Here's one way to answer that question;
http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/hobar...an/1014942253# Anyone with a love affair for the EB would have to take a squiz at this prime example !

What a shame it never saw any useful life and probably never will, now it's just old and the cooling, fuel and brake systems will be buggered from no use.

Heh, that's pretty cool.
Ford_The_Win, it's safe to say that the squillion other EB's out there have done enough work for this one to sit back and put it's feet up.

Comparing my EB with new GT ?? Although the EBXR8 has [600Lb] coil overs in the front and Bilsteins all around,Adjustable rear sway bar, 350 A.P front brakes.. It stands up well with new car over 20 newer..
The EB is faster but NOT as fuel efficient !!

looks like it just rolled off the line, i drove a friends of the family`s ea series a few years ago, and after listening to bucketing some people give the e series, i was shocked , it drove dam good, had a better steering lock than my au, had excellent visibility all around better than any modern car i can think of and it was very smooth, it was a good car!
even if this car needed a head gasget and cooling system /brakes works, you could knock that over in a weekend and have a top car. |

Wow, what a time capsule, shame about the colour, would have been real nice in red.
FWIW, Dick Johnson was asked at the last Adelaide GP, which Falcon would he chose if he had to drive back to QLD, he said the EB as it was the best 'drivers' car Ford had built. |

It won't sell, no one will pay $10k for an EB GLi.
I don't even think anyone would to put it in a museum.
