just saying G'day

[poppa smurf]

newby here,.......recently bought a 2005 BA Ford Fairmont.....mickey mouse condition from an elderly couple who truly only drove it to church on sunday

lovely car but very strange to me,......never had a ford before

I will admit that i have been "sneaking peeks" in here for the past few days and must say a big thanks to the guys that placed the thread about replacing the damper on the glove box

I fell into that trap after cleaning the filter in behind the glovebox and finding the damper already hanging

I thought it was a lipstick or a glasses case.. ....

after two hours of trying to get it back in I came here seeking Knowledge ...lo and behold I finded it

anyhoo....I'm a 54 YO married tool sharpener and a full time carer who loves to travel, been all over the joint and will do it all again

getting the fairmont up to scratch at the moment with the trans cooler, larger tow bar, and electric brakes

going over to running away from vans instead of the years we have spent in our 85 toyota Hi-Ace long wheel base camper with sopru conversion

but anyway that's me........
