Kyle's ED Falcon GLi/NL Fairlane Ghia

you need fuel!!!

looked good last night mate. all you need to do is change the light on the roof to blue and it would set it right off!

The dash cluster looks great!

All you have to do now is scrape the orange paint off the back of each gauge needle, repaint with a light coat of liquid paper ...and they'll light up Blue just as nicely as everything else.

Good work man.

looks good now, doing anything to the dash?

Kyle the ED4LTR · Post by **Kyle the ED4LTR** » May 19th, 2008, 11:15 pm

not sure yet, im thinking a BA surround for when i convert to manual and painting some of the bits silver or using woodgrain.

G3R3N · Post by **G3R3N** » May 20th, 2008, 12:09 am

Go the woodgrain to match the Ghia idea

saw the car last night. You've done well so far.

saw your post further up and u might be better off with green parkers over blue as blue and reds are emergency colours.

on the weekend i bought colour coded mirrors and AU3 repeaters to give it that more of a Fairmont/XR look

also red strips and a ghia badge i pinched from the wreckers

red strips on the side i bought of Barnsy though

does anyone know how to get that texta/marker stuff off of the mirror?

G3R3N · Post by **G3R3N** » May 25th, 2008, 7:04 pm

Metho?

John_LS1 · Post by **John_LS1** » May 25th, 2008, 7:27 pm

ghia badges and red stripes dont go

metho should get the texta mark off. just give it a polish after wards. my reccomendation is to remove the ghia and 4.0L badge and just have a tickford badge if you have to have one. also remove hubcaps and dump it

Kyle the ED4LTR · Post by **Kyle the ED4LTR** » May 25th, 2008, 7:27 pm

i put ghia ones on until i get XR6 and Ticky ones, just to give it a classy look

Post by **Dump3D** » May 25th, 2008, 10:14 pm

his right lose the hub caps dude.

would look more tuffera

lawl

Its a work-in progress, so give him some time to find a decent set of wheels

Wont metho damage the paint?

braiden · Post by **braiden** » May 26th, 2008, 5:15 am

Looking nice. I agree about the badges, Ticky for sure. Ditch that 4L badge, something I have been meaning to do as well. However, I reckon the red strip with the Ghia badge looks good!

i was in the middle of putting in the XR one but realised i didnt have the right spanner, so the sensor is still unplugged

, but i do have one ready to put in i just need a hand and tools.
