Boosted Falcon

gday all.

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?

another wagon, they seem to be getting more popular with the E-series crowd...Nice car, looks like you have put in a decent amount of effort to bring it back the spec it was when you bought, Hopefully now you will take a little better care of it
but nice car all in all. Welcome!

Nice rig you got there man, looks like i't will be quite a good one

ok... lots of little bits.....

went to sydney in feb. day before i left got the windows tinted... looks mint.









while in sydney visited benj.





now since seeing benj's wagon and much lower the front was.. i decided to put some superlows into mine. sorry i dont have a photo. but now i still dont think its low enuf so im gona go for some ultralows. just gota get them. im also getting blocks for the back.


on another subject.... i got a crow stage 2 cam...... im inlove again. theres such a differance thru the mid range power and tourqe.

now on another sideline.....

I FOUND SIDE SKIRTS!!! yes i did wagon side skirts.... and cheap...

ummmmm theres a few other things on the go but ill leave it at that for now.....

more photos??

If you want it lower, get Pedders short shocks - they make a difference!

Nice work, love the pic of the two wagons together (coming from someone who isnt a huge fan of wagons :p )

LOADS more done...

1st i blew my motor up and learn't something too.... when a motor has done 300,000k's dont expect to be able to drop a crow stage 2 cam into it without changing anything else and have it run for more than a few weeks.



also ive now put a 3.45 lsd into the car and im loving it but i thought while i was at it ide lower the car more........ just in the rear to start with the front will happen in the next week.



and to make things even better ive had a set of wagon sprint skirts in the shed for a few months so i got of my ass and painted them and put them on.... was really surprised with how good they do look.....




and then fitted to the car....





now all im looking for is a front bar and then ill start thinking of a rear bar. but the car is going fantastic! the new motor is a full rebuild on a el motor with the bbm. really really easy to put in too even to get the bbm working. and the power! bloody hell i got a mate with a 6 speed manual vz ute and its almost even i can just pull away... but only just.

Side skirts are perfect

so been doin more... ebay id my friend...

got my hands on a 3/4 skirt off a bloke for $90 who would say no to that!

also lowered the front more so it sits well with the back......









bar needs to be painted the right white and finished a little bit but i like it.... just gota start thinking of a rear bar.

is that a TSS front kit?

yeah. i aint seen it on anything else thats why i like it

Nead to make a Build thread for this i think .
Well all you need is a rear bar for this .

put a build thread togetha
