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!

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.
