Hi Everyone

Postby jas27791 » May 10th, 2008, 7:50 pm

Hello everyone!

I'm jason and by looking at this site I can tell why I love fords especially the e-series falcons.

I'm 16 and on my Ls and I own two e series falcons both EAs.

This is my daily driver a 1990 EA GL Falcon. I am currently in the process of tidying it up and I hope to eventually paint it green in the future.

This is my parts car that I picked up for a carton of XXXX. Its a 1991 EA wagon 30th anniversary. I'm using it for parts but am currently working on it to get the brakes and engine running right

Thanks for viewing!

Where did a 16yo score a carton of XXXX from? :P

Nice pair mate, having two cars at age 16 is pretty damn good!

Would you believe that colour was available in the EA range? Member ef futura used to have an EA S-pack in that colour

Thank you all for your comments and the warm welcomes! I dont know many 16 year olds who have 2 cars as well :D

welcome to the forums aswell!


the changes I plan on making are mostly cosmetic as some of you may know the current laws in Queensland at the moment about P platers. Planned mods include painting it green (how does dick johnson's greens tuff sound? :)), I would also like to lower it and put on a nice set of mags and a set of those clear taillights would be nice as well. Planned mechanical mods include extractors and a sports exhaust system. I have a mate at work with a very tidy ED painted midnight blue, mags and lowered and it looks a treat.

No I don't think so, we bought the car at a caryard around about 8-10 years ago.

I already have the front bar off the front of the wagon now and just going to feshen that up before I put it on the sedan. Also me and the old boy are planning to switch over the front struts and coils and then doing a transmission swap as the wagon has the electronic gearbox. But other than that, yea the car will mainly be used for backup parts as well. I have already swaped dashes over and I am currently fixing a vaccum problem in the wagon.

I also have a XF bonnet with the XB GT flutes on it at home. I plan on cutting those out and welding them onto a spare EA bonnet I have at home. I got the idea from anther mate at work who has a EA Fairmont with body kit, mags and the XB GT flutes on his bonnet.
