Welcome mate.

as sexyr6 said, 'tis a shame about your ute. It's surprising how cheap you can get late model e-series for nowadays... got mine for $250.

Do you need to do a lot to the EF for roady?

the ef needed a front indicator, a set of tyres, front brakes, a little rust repair in one sill and a taillight globe, and the only thing i didn't get out of my ute was the rust repair
