Sounds like a nice find Matt.
Post up some pics, I don't really care what condition it's in, it's an E-series so it has got to be pleasing to the eye! Some pics under the bonnet would be interesting. So now you have a daily driver and a spare Fairmont just begging for a supercharger... |

Hey SgtBourne (am terrible with names, sorry),
I have an old set of pacies from my EF that you can have if they fit an EL. Also got a hi flow cat that's your's if you want it. Their both about 4 years old and currently at my old man's farm in Mudgee, so if you want them let me know and I'll get my old man to bring em back next time he's up there. The pacemakers are ok, can't vouch for the condition of the cat though. Brendan Mock said it was alright when he took it off the car a couple of years ago. I take no responsibility if they make your car blow up, yadda, yadda, yadda... Last edited by 5_speed; 26-02-2008 at 08:26 PM. Reason: I can't spell / type |

Special price for club member.
I've had then lying around for the past 3 years or so. I don't use them, so I figure someone else can have them. They only spent about a year on my car. They're in a heavy plastic bag, so they should be ok, although I haven't looked at them for a while, they could be a pile of rust. I'll get the old man to bring them back when he's up there next, won't be for a couple of weeks or so. Give us a PM if you want more details (although there probably aren't any). Sorry for high-jacking the thread on Matt's new E-series. |

Nice work Matt!! The problem with modifying a daily driver is that your stranded when it goes bung!! At least with a toy it is not that much of a problem.
