GMacca's EL GLi

[GMacca88]

Hey guys am only new here so thought i should share my car with you.
She is a 1998 Ford Falcon GLi which i bought as my first car back in 2006 stock standard. Since then i have added a 2.5 inch redback exhaust, lowered it a little, chucked on a set of 18" Advanti vaults as well as the clear tail lights. hope you like it and is a work in progress so gives me something to do.

Future plans are to put on the EL XR8 body kit that is sitting in the shed as well give her a little bit of boost.

[toohey_08]

looks good
i like the boot install nice and tidy

[GMacca88]

hey yeah thanks, interior is a work in progress at the moment so just playing around with some ideas for it and had to keep me boot nice and simple as i still use it so it works out to be a good setup.

[ELDanny]

looks good not a big fan of the front grill but each to their own
good to see another shep member on here

btw i've got the regency el on gt's that gets around shep

[SnyperEB]

Did you do the door trims yourself?

[GMacca88]

hey yeah the original grill is back in as got sick of people picking on the pink thing (it does look better with the original one in it thou). Have seen ya cruising around shep and at maccas i will have to stop and say hi next time i see ya.

The door trims were done by my brothers fianc'e but have to fix them up a bit as they starting to come unstuck at the corners.

[GMacca88]

Sorry bout the photo was off my phone

[EFDOFF]

how much it cost ya to get the grill done? and if u did ut yourself? was it hard man?

[GMacca88]

Wasn't to hard at all just got some mesh from autobarn or super cheap and then just cut it to suit. did mine back in 2006 when i was a little tipsy so ya can get them looking heaps better.

[forbsy]

[JH-FALCON_S-92]

i love the boot man
but i dont like the mud flaps lol

[GMacca88]

yer i didn't like the mud flaps either hence they are gone now.

[GMacca88]

well today my boot was bugging me so decided i wanted it to be a flat floor and this is how it turned out.
(sorry for the dodgy photo really should invest in a good camera)

[Nikk O'lass]

looks like a good thing.

Nice colour.

[Biggie.c]

nice matey, thats how i wanted my boot to turn out like but i wasnt sure when making my box if the 2x 12's wer gonna fit in that space but im still happy with it

[GMacca88]

Hey well today on my way to work my front right hand tire decided it didnt like to be here and destroyed itself at 110km/h, scared the crap out of me but luckily was able to get it to a halt and all good.


And for the point that i wanted to see how it looked i put the stockie on the rear lol.

[pHaT`eL]

[EFFalcon]

[GMacca88]

LOL yeah i know just went out and bought 4 new toyo teo tires so is all good now.

[GMacca88]

Well on the weekend i picked up a EL GHIA interior and have since put the seats in. (gotta wait till i put the electric windows in before i change the door trims over) am wrapped with it.
Thanks Louis_XR6 for them.

[GMacca88]

Hey guys been a while since i been on here so thought i should update this. interior now has electric windows and ghia door trims, soon to come will be a vct engine that is just waiting to be picked up. will have pics up shortly.

[KR1STO]

ahhh.. i remember the car now...haha
will get it all sorted for ya bud..
chat soon mate!

[mad_keen]

Sorry man but this car looks rotten. Like the seats but thats about it.

Lose the blue bits inside. I have a serious hate on for the el gli/futura front end

[GMacca88]

Well all to there own opinion hence i like the front end so thats what i got and interior has changed to a ghia interior door trims and all painted parts have been returned to factory colour.

[LOW-LTD]

nice... and good plans!

[GMacca88]

Hey havn't been on for a while so thought i should update progress

Interior is almost done just a few more bits to do



picked vct and auto up



Then got a friend who is a professional spray painter to fix up the rocker cover



and now how engine sits at the moment



next step is to get it in the car and then to modify it a little.
