The red EF with decorsas was sold by SPHELL to a bloke interstate, but I think Bentls mate bought it and it may be back in VIC.

My brother owns the red EF XR6 (the one without the cooler) with decorsas now, but it has standard wheels on it, needs a detail and some TLC, my brother isn't much of a car man!

Looks like an EA. If it is I can't pick what kit it has on it.

If you see it in real life you'll shoot yours. There is a convertible ea that I've seen a couple of times in my area that is a sin against ford. Looks like shocking. Baby blue with cream interior. I wanna punch the guy

4 of those red E-Series are somehow connected to Doug lol.

The red EA used to be his.

GLI with 20" De Corsas was his.

The EF XR6 with 19" white De Corsas belonged to a long forgotten ex's ex of Doug's.

The EF XR6 with 20's was mine, I bought it massively shitted out in late 2008. Me, Gill and Doug put some decent work in to it and re-sprayed it within a couple of weeks, including fully blocking it back and buffing before assembling it. Owned by Gill's brother now, who has let it go lol.

This car left the Ford factory after final Testing in 91 still bagged and an EA but with all the EB series one features including 5.0L V8 AND 5 SPEED MANUAL. It made its way to HO INTECEPTER for a brief stop where it became the first of 2 phase 8 XR8 Falcons made and was fitted with the Wayne Draper designed body kits and large rear spoiler and then onto its home at Roman Autotek.

While at Autotek, Bob and his team prepared the car for its life as the Momo show car consisting of new paint and Momo signage , fully re-trimmed in yellow leather Momo seats , steering wheel, gear knob and door trims.

When the EB/ED Shape was replaced with the new EF/EL Falcon the Momo show car became too old to show and so started the second phase of its life as a Pace car where it was fitted with light bar, full harness belts and a set of Magnesium Speedline wheels and used at Oran park. It was the regular pace car for rounds of the ATCC/ V8 Supercars events as well as the Truck Racing Series and many other categories.

I purchased the car some years ago and have only given it a little tidy up as it was in great condition . It currently has 25200km original kms on it and is still a fantastic piece of histor
