alright well i ended up parting out the purple ed thinking i would cross over too the evil side an buy a statesman.
well had a look at a couple an thought don't know what the big deal is they drive just like a ed.
well anyways on my way home from looking at too many holden's i come accross this ed on the lawn of a house in some upper nose part of melbourne with grass growing around it.
thought what the fuk knocked on the door asked if the wanted too sell it.
an he said might how much i told him i would give him $1200 for it an the rest is history.
well put it in for a R.W.C passed needed nothing
well it sits as high as a tractor but got some super lows too go on it.
me bieng an idiot sold all my ford shit
so got too find some pacey's an exhaust ,cam,rims,el door trims,head unit,3.45 diff.
is a nice motor comes a long or i can find some one too put a au engine in for me i will do that
only mod so far is the last of my left overs the snokel lol

Dont think I could make a desicion like that . Looks good mate... Whats the plans?

Good find mate! It was worth getting the nerves up to go and ask. There is this house near me that had three EB/EDs sitting around with long grass around them that would've scrubbed up nice. I always thought about making an offer but I wasn't in the market for one.

saw this yesterday, man its clean... its going to come up a treat..
good luck with the mods man...

Nice find. Looks like it has a lot of potential. Even the chrome looks to be in good nick

nice pick up mate.

LOL...fair enuff.

Yeh its a nice car mate, Good luck with it, should come up a treat!

well guys... just put a deposit on this and pickin it up 2moro... looks like i got another e-series to play with..

yep kr1sto new ride now
but don't worry went an bought a ed fairmont ghia 5 speed

where'd you find that???
might have to buy that off ya too....

lol i think i'm going too keep this one you will have too come over an have a look got it for what i sold this one too you for

thats not fair.... don't worry.. you'll sell it to me...hahah
or at least if you are going to part it out i call dibs on interior, door trims, engine and box ok....

yeah i'll pop around soon and see it soon bud..

man thats a nice find.....Very tidy wish my 1200 ED looked like that lol

yeah its clean as... drives like a dream.. almost to good to get my grubby hands on... its original and untouched..

but we'll see what happens next year.. not touching it for now

yeah, well if u wanna sell it

haha... we'll see mate...doubt it though..
good starting point for something quick i think..

I certainly agree!!!

im still deciding what to do with mine... send it into a panel shop spent 2k on the body and removing rust....

or find a straight eb-ed GLI shell and use mine as a donor..... (mine has rust in sills, around the windows etc)

get a donor mate.... much easier and you can pick up a clean ghia for about 2000.... then have some fun swapping bits and pieces...

I think your right lol will come down to lazyness in the end!

exactly my problem with most projects... tend to get the cbf's a fair bit...lol

cbf is just so easy. this car has taken so much effort already thats why im thinkin about jus spending the money to fix it.... ive done: the rack, upper and lower ball joints, all 4 discs, all pads, motor, diff, whole interior, fixed the abs, fixed smartlock, converted to el efi, exhaust hmmm anyway ill stop stealing ur thread.

not really my thread anyway... so its cool..
you've done heaps man...

have you had a full quote on it..?
if you were going to do all that body work you could always respray it in any colour you liked i suppose..
thats the only bonus i'd say...

if you really like it, just keep it then, do everything you wanna do, and have everything the way you like it..

all comes down to the cbf's...lol

hahaha yea see cbf wont come into it when i just put the thing into a shop

nah i havnt had a quote but im gonna get one soon... so i can see if its really worth it or not... if its like more then $1500 just to remove the rust ill be thinking twice...
