Hey :)

Postby Melz » October 26th, 2007, 12:56 pm

Hey guys, well I'm not an E-series owner any more but a somewhat quite enthusiast and have a new-found respect for the E-series powertrain!

This is my old ride.. it was stocko and is still sitting in my father's shed.

I've always wanted to build up a 4.0litre but have never found the time or the money or the right motor!!!

I'm more of an X-series gal, but love the blueoval.. (regardless of my purchase of a Holden :D )

I know a few of you from somewhere else (that shall remain nameless) so I hope to get to know a few more of you and learn about your cars

Cheers
Melz

Hi Melz,

Regarding a 4.0 build, are you considering slotting one between the XB's shock towers? (you know you want to) :D

It's OK to mention AFF here, it's not a banned word or anything ;)
