It looks pretty crap, but I suppose you could work on that.

You're not kidding, but do you think he will let it go that cheap?

I'd loose the centre vent. Keep the side ones, fit decent wheels.
Nice ride!! Where's dan??

Thanks for the heads up Gunns.
The bonnet it a bit ugly. I would remove the scoop and paint the car. I hate that colour. The same car has been on ebay before. It might be a bit of a gamble to buy with the fire damage I reckon. I wonder if it really is a Tremec and not a T5.

small engine bay fire or wire melt happended, i think the simple fix it he claims is optomistic, if it can be started buy it, if not I smell something fishy and you are buying a 3grand body shell with turbo plates.
EDIT: I have a very strange feeling this has been offered on sale before, and why no pics to proove the turbo plates, the more I look, the more dodgy it seems. EDIT2: Dash is 2 tone, EA was single colour, and there is a standard steering wheel in the foreground of one of the pics.

What I am confused about is that It is "meant" to be a fairmont ghia but 1.no central locking, 2.It has a standard ignition key, no colour coded door handles, 3. S pack rims.
It is sounding like a dodgy deal.... And My EA has 2 tone dash... |

Well maybe series 1 got the 1 colour and series 2 got a 2 tone, but in any event things dont add up
My EA Ghia series 1 had black door handles from factory. EDIT: I think it may be a series 1 with no third stop light or rear glass that has allowence for 1 either. Also the other pics are in the nice sunlight and the engine is a night or very low light shot ............. hmmmmmmmmm Has an s-pac dash, or did all AIT get a new dash? Missing stereo as well.

Get rid of the Middle vent and get some good looking wheels and it would be a sweet *** ride.

Seen it, just needs (visually) respray in black, APV kit and some FR18's or ANZ Voltec's and it'd be a mint car! Wonder if the price will jump much at all?

But a BA turbo has about 50x less chance of stuffing up!
