EBGT at Jolly's.

by **Phoenix** » July 23rd, 2008, 1:41 pm

Went to Jolly's today and saw that they have a complete EBGT for sale.
Not sure if its genuine or mock up, but had the full kit, so i assume.....
was only like 2.1k though, so makes ya wonder.
No pics as i didnt have cam and was in a rush to get to uni, but thought i'd let ya'll know.

by **EFFalcon** » July 23rd, 2008, 1:43 pm

won't be a genuine

have to be a mockup lol

by **Commando** » July 23rd, 2008, 1:46 pm

Probably a 3.9/BW35 at that!

by **Bomber** » July 23rd, 2008, 1:57 pm

Seen it yesterday is a Moffat kit i think on an EA navy blue sittin near the front door.

by **Phoenix** » July 23rd, 2008, 3:24 pm

yeah, thats the one.
assaid, didnt get an awesome look, and with that price thought it'd be a bit iffy, but hey, thought id give a heads up anyway.

by **pHaT`eL** » July 23rd, 2008, 3:25 pm

Yeah, EA Ghia with Moffat front/side/rear and EBGT boot spoiler and bonnet vents.

by **SnyperEB** » July 23rd, 2008, 5:34 pm

by **needfordspeed** » July 23rd, 2008, 5:37 pm

Yeah saw that POS the other day, no-way it's a GT

by **LTDHO** » July 23rd, 2008, 6:08 pm

OMG Genuine GT I am so there!!

Sif Jollys would buy anything other than mainstream.

Thanks for the heads up though, good for a kit.

by **XR_Lightning** » July 23rd, 2008, 7:08 pm

yeah saw that thing last saturday, bit of a shitta, the guy at jollys was praising how good it was with the body kit, rims n stuff and I had to try and not laugh

by **galapogos01** » July 23rd, 2008, 7:25 pm

seriously, jollys is terrible and so is center road wreckers (now imlachs).

anyone know anywhere good to get high series eseries bits? i still want chrome bits.

well everyone has a ritght to their own opinion, but Jollys isnt that bad, if they got a good selection of cars its good, atm its not so great for e-series, but im sure many will agree they have found many good pickups at jollys and some people just prefer to go to a wreckers where you pick a part so to speak, cause you can just look around and think "shit, thats not bad, I could use that"

by **galapogos01** » July 23rd, 2008, 9:02 pm

the cars are mostly low series and mostly in shithouse condition.

i have no problem with pick-a-part style wreckers, theyre great, but jollys has gone downhill since they "joined forces" with the joint next door and redid the entry.

by **BLCKED** » July 23rd, 2008, 9:34 pm

jollies have mostly base modle cars,

never seen an e series v8 there.

i have, it will be in there shed of motors. they do occasionally get ghia's/fairmonts etc ive only seen one XR6 there and it was a manual EF.

by **BLCKED** » July 23rd, 2008, 9:40 pm

yeah i have seen a 5 litre for sale

but not an actual car, i guess they prefer to sell it complete.

by **Bomber** » July 23rd, 2008, 9:51 pm

Seen a couple NF and a NC they were both 8s engine still in the car.

by **BLCKED** » July 23rd, 2008, 10:00 pm

ahh yeah,

i been chasing a powersteering pump cap for ages,

i must admit i dont go to jolly's all that often. been using ebay alot more lately

by **Bomber** » July 23rd, 2008, 10:48 pm

See if commando has got his one from his old pump that he replaced man.

by **G3R3N** » July 23rd, 2008, 11:10 pm

Nisscar in Moorabbin is not too bad. They dont have a huge area so they pretty much store all their stuff rather than leave you to remove teh stuffs

by **SnyperEB** » July 23rd, 2008, 11:42 pm

I have got many a good thing from jolly's.

by **needfordspeed** » July 23rd, 2008, 11:47 pm

You and your stories from Jolly's/eBay....golden lol

by **pHaT`eL** » July 24th, 2008, 5:43 am

Jollys is great, it comes and goes though. Theres a few EL Montys and HEAPS of EB/ED Montys.

by **galapogos01** » July 24th, 2008, 9:15 am

Maybe ill head down again.

center road imlachs has a few eseries v8s, and an nl fairlane iirc. no good interior bits ever found there though. they pick all the cars up with forklifts through the windscreen, the interiors all get f&cked before they get in the yard.

by **t1MMy** » July 24th, 2008, 10:05 am

Allford in Braeside have some decent engines & interior stuff if anyone is interested.

I've found Centre Road Wreckers to be pretty good. I've only ever seen the forklift pick the cars up from underneath. I've got a number of car parts from there including some harder to find ones (like the rubber boot that goes around the gear stick under the centre console). But everyone will have a differing opinion on these things.

how many EB GT's were made i sware i have never seen a real one!

by **t1MMy** » July 24th, 2008, 1:02 pm

I worked with a bloke at ford who owned a genuine EB GT. He was selling it to, but someone twisted his arm into keeping it.

I had a guy turn up in a genuine one to pickup a bunch of stockies I was done with. Wacked 2 in the boot, and the rest straight on the leather in the back seat. I almost cried

The thing was immaculate too, other than some obviously recent battle scars, and he'd only had it for a few months.

by **holmsy** » July 26th, 2008, 11:34 am

i beleive there was at least 1 genuine one parked behind our display at afd this year.

by **YBYAVL** » July 26th, 2008, 8:09 pm

ye i had a look at that thing the other day, kunts want 2900 an its a bagga shit....3.9 auto EA with fuked clear coat
i tried swapin him my kit for that 1, coz its like...half a GT an half a standard bar *shrugz*
the kunt sez its a GTO kit....can any1 shed sum light on the subject,...
ive got sum pix of it, but cant upload atm....

but like i sed, its half a GT bar at the bottom an the top half looks like a standard bar, with the chrome trim in it. to match the side moulds on the door....the rear was the same,
i liked it more then the GT kit...

by **pHaT`eL** » July 28th, 2008, 5:44 am

Luke, its a Moffat/HO kit (front/side/rear) with EBGT bonnet vents and rear spoiler.

by **YBYAVL** » July 28th, 2008, 4:03 pm

by **Kyle the ED4LTR** » July 28th, 2008, 4:07 pm

by **Kyle the ED4LTR** » July 29th, 2008, 12:30 pm

Bodykit or not its still an EA.

by **pHaT`eL** » July 29th, 2008, 3:43 pm

Not only that, front bar is cracked to buggery..
Would look good if it didnt have the EBGT stuff on it..

Was talkin to the guy in there, cant remember his name, but he was laughin at the prices that get put on the cars out the front. Reckons hes dreamin!
