i got my p's in June 2008 and then started looking for a car. my dads mate had a 1994 ed wagon that looked stunning but it wasn't the car i wanted it was an auto it was a wagon not a panal van... so i kept looking around for a bit then discovered that i couldn't find what i wanted so i went and bought the wagon. needless to say it was just a car to me when i first got it. i didnt car how it looked and didnt even think of upgrades or mods.
after a few months she was looking a little worse than she did when i got her.
main thing is i had a lil crash with a shed out on a mates paddick... the car coped a few scratches and dints but that was all.
so then i really was sick of how it looked with the dints scrapes and it just looked crap.
i got given an ea wagon that was cream. i got that home and decided ide swap over the front end and bonnet.. that didnt look good but i put up with it for a while and put and started making it go faster.
first was a k&n panal filter and an xh intake snorkel
then had to put a new auto in her.. 3rd one.
got some king spring lows or superlows out of the ea wagon
started trawling ebay and found some 5 leaf king spring superlows for the back
had the auto start playing up... again decided it was time for a manual so started saving..
as im not good at saving i then went out and bought a full exhaust. "fixed" the cat and swore lots fitting it all up.
after a while i had the money and a mate with a hoist so i decided ide do the manual conversion. got the kit. swapped the box for a reco t5. and started it.
can i say i think thats the best thing ive ever done apart from lowering it. its made it soo much better to drive and so much more fun!
after a while at looking at the car like this..
i picked this up for $600!
the front end has been all resparyed and replaced in 2002! all new ford parts. the other bonus was the inside was spotless!
so i quickly started swapping well taking bits off and stripping it down to what i wanted.
and after a days work in the sun.
much better me thinks.
now the rims are a mates who didnt need em and i needed tires. so i was getting pretty sick of em and really didnt ever think they would shine up. so i went a got these.
i still dont have a photo of the whole car not with the new wheels. after the wheels i was bored at a mates and decided to make the rear lights a lil darker.
changes the whole look of the car i rekon.
theres a few other things that need to be done but now i can say its MY car.
wat you guys rekon?
