Hey all

[93edxr6]

and how do i start it??? and where is the mad max supper chager on off button???

[BRADMAN]

well after purchasing a EL ghia for wrecking....ive taken a different path














yes the last photo is woodgrain sprayed black...im going to play with the colours until i find something i like
i went with standard handles as dont have chrome anywhere else in the car

The spears should look good

Are you certain they're Ghia doortrims though? I thought they came with leather armrests, unless I'm thinking of Fairlane/LTD-specific doortrims.

They look 100% better than the doortrims-in-progress too, although I guess that's an unfair comparo since nobody got to see what the end result would be.

tiptronic shifter? fuggin cool man. How difficult is the install on the wiring side of things?

[Commando]

I'll steal the answer from Brad. The electrical side is as easy as wiring in a shift kit, I shit you not. It's the physical fitting which is a PITA

[BRADMAN]

yeah the gear is EL...cos the car is in my driveway. hehe

tiptronic is easy to wire
custom shifter cable bracket is required....heres what i did

[BRADMAN]

still trying to track down a Scortcher front bar to hide the cooler

[91ebxr8]

[Commando]

ahh yes, patience is needed when it comes to quality flange

[91ebxr8]

ahh yes, patience is needed when it comes to quality flange

money never hurts either!

[BRADMAN]

nothing ever is bolt up 91ebxr8
most things need customising.

the manifold is bolt on...but everything else (piping/exhaust) needs modding

went cruising in the typhoon again....makes me wanna chuck the turbo on now. hehe
