Cheers guys! There are some little things I need to take care of before it comes out to often...

Can't wait!

by **John_LS1** » July 17th, 2007, 11:44 pm

Yeah youve done a nice job on it but put a turbo on it! and also paint your doorhandles they annoy me...lol

bout time you put those sway bars in it too.

by **someLS1** » July 17th, 2007, 11:52 pm

Very nice work Steve i love that photo with the stockies mint black eb with stockies cant get any tougher then that hahaha..
Have you thought about buying some other rims other then the GTs mate?

by **needfordspeed** » July 18th, 2007, 12:38 am

Very clean Steve, good stuff. What has Pat done to it?

by **ORSMEB** » July 18th, 2007, 11:24 am

Hey John, I still don't know about the door handle idea...it's too ED like...lol
I tell you what John, those sway bars are awesome! They stiffen the front up something cronick! The only bad thing is the steering has gotten harder now..oh well. The price of modifying.

Max, I thought about EB GT ones but they're too much. I don't really like many other rims. Maybe you suggest some?

Gilly, Pat fixed up my rear door. It had a 'dint' in it. It's out now.

by **[RATJET]** » July 18th, 2007, 12:29 pm

A DINT????? lol Pat did a wicked job on the repare.... i was ther watching most of it get done.... car looks sweet now.... even though im not a fan of EL GT rims they look orsm on this... :mrgreen:

by **Commando** » July 18th, 2007, 12:53 pm

Looks great bloke, keep up the shenanigans

by **ORSMEB** » July 18th, 2007, 2:49 pm

Lol. Me either Glenn, but they were damn cheap, and I wanted to upgrade from the tiny 16" ones I had.

Yeah, it was a dint...maybe more. I'm not sure!

by **someLS1** » July 19th, 2007, 12:05 am

I shoulda lent you my rims to see what they look like... besides that hahaha i dont know i struggled to find rims i like for eseries aswell i know they are getting common now but i still think the 19" gtps look awesome.

by **XRated** » July 19th, 2007, 12:28 am

One of the cleanest E-Series around. It looks mint.

Chuck up an engine bay shot. I couldn't stop ogling at it when I first saw photos.

Keep up the tidy work!!

By the way, the AJRs would've looked crazzzzy on this.

by **ORSMEB** » July 19th, 2007, 6:02 pm

Max! I ASKED TO BORROW YOUR RIMS AND YOU SAID YOU NO!!!!! Shame on you...shame, shame, shame...lol
I don't like GTP 19's, so I won't be getting any...

Cheers XRated. Photo bucket is down, sorry, so I can't upload the pic I want to show, but here is one Alex took...

EDIT: Photo bucket is up now, but I like Alex's one better

The condition of this car is insane mate, love it.
You have done one hell of a job.

P.S Due to the condition of your car I will kindly ask you to never park next to me.......ever!!!

Thanks.

Yes, I can even do 6th gear as well in my T56. It goes good!

by **ORSMEB** » November 4th, 2007, 7:21 pm

Hey guys. The ORSM Club made the trip up to Wagga Wagga for the All Ford Day. It was a fantastic weekend for me and the club.
The Club got 3 awards and 1 was mine

. I got the award for best daily driver. I'm stoked.

by **XRated** » November 4th, 2007, 9:03 pm

Well deserved. That is immaculate. Did you buy it in such pristine condition?

by **ORSMEB** » November 4th, 2007, 9:21 pm

Thanks mate. I didn't buy it this clean. It was very stock looking, so the mods I've done have made it looks cleaner..I've also got many parts of the car resprayed due to the age of the car (and because of damage sometimes

). The engine bay has had a lot of little cleaning up things done to it to make it clean. Like the sound deadener stuff on the fire wall is off, and the paint is waxed, airbox gone...etc, etc. All just little things.

by **XRated** » November 4th, 2007, 10:33 pm

Yeah it's usually all the little things added up that make something special. Was the cabin louder once you removed the shitty firewall stuff?

by **someLS1** » November 5th, 2007, 12:44 am

Congrats steve it is well deserved i remember saying to john how clean this car was before i even met you....

BTW tho if you had stockies and i was a judge id give you 3 trophies.. :twisted:

by **Damo** » November 5th, 2007, 11:54 am

is it really your daily driver ?

That's mint Steve, well deserved, congrats!

by **Dansedgli** » November 5th, 2007, 12:11 pm

What have you had done to your extractors? They look pretty good.
