Where the chips a factor, lol.

Good to see your brothers OK, though. The roof seem to hold together pretty well and the front window did its job very well.

It inspires confidance in the E-series people out there, i wouldnt like to have done that in an old VK Commodore or some korean shozbox like a Hyundai Lantra.

Yet more proof that E-series are built tough. Good that nobody was hurt.

If he needs to get some money back from it he can wreck it and sell parts on here

FTG salvage just wrecked a fairmont wagon so you can look on their add and see who wanted what and what they went for - just an idea

Also if the power window switches still have all the white diagrams on them I will bags that part.

Since everyone ignored your repeated PS.
The ISC, sits on the throttle body. If their similar to EA its on top, the side one is TPS.


Tell him to put wheels on the roof of his next one.
