seeing as i was sooo slow getting a into g .... i needed another wagooon to replace my previous EB




i now have this base model




altho why its been set so high in a***??




car drives & stops well but the a*** has to come down from the clouds ... only problem i had was unlocking tailgate, which turned out to be a pain as i hacked the internal cover so i could get the number plate section out .... then found out that all i needed ta do was turn key hard left & pull handle so i put in a 'cover' to hide to 4 smallish holes & on side pieces to match





eventually throw sum speaker covers in factory spots

has the full size fuel tank [which i found had the pump disconnected] with the smaller gas tank



and came with the unbroken cover




not sure how this will go for RWC due to missing intake?




just the plain interior with manual winders - which will hopefully change sumtime afta i get rego ... update cluster from other EB swapping wiring looms etc




not sure which wheels to use

these will hopefully get fitted afta rego







think i may have ta learn fibreglass molding

and the wiring from the '93 EB fitted - has the 'sports' cluster & factory remote/smart lock. the EF motor in it will get the leaking seal replaced etc etc also lsd from another wagoon


whats the best way to remove the plastic interior pieces without breaking them??

whats a good stereo unit to replace factory unit as i dont use cds

well changed the wheels to these



a*** end now sits a bit lower afta removing the xtra leaf [still sits a bit high] at least the shockers can function as they were made to lol [with xtra leaf shockers were at max length!!]



and changed steering wheel to this which i prefer [compared to original]




petrol tank needs ta be changed as it appears to be leaking & fuel pump aint working. can a CPI handle the fuel pressure from a MPFI pump??


Thanks

when fitting that twinlight conversion be very patient in aligning them, i had the same setup before the tickford front.

no probs ... thanks


which was it tho ... up/down or left/right ??

eventually i will change to this style of cluster




the EA sedan i will be wrecking soon will give up its front wiring looms, cluster & MPFI for the '91 wagoon .... think maybe the Ghia wagoon seats will go in or mabe the ones from the EB2?? lol as the EB will be converted to an enclosed trailer


also have tried led lighting as most here seem to be doing









interior pics were taken on me samsung with no flash or any other xtra lighting .... only interior car lights [main roof light & rear cargo light] i used 4 sections in the main light [1st pic shows 2 sections] & lights ARE brighter in person!!


ohh thinkin of using EB2 front doors instead of EB1 doors just for the 6" speaker placement ..... thoughts??

the fact that there is movement from the top bracket to the main unit and the same for the covers.

do you mean the section that mounts to the factory spots & the headlight base??

i don't really like the headlight covers i have ...... they are 'about' a 4.5 inch hole where as the lights are/need an 'approx' 5.25" hole so as there is minimal light "blockage" ... i intend to run max light coverage ie 90/130 outers with 120/130 inners & see if i can use the 150's [sealed] i have [pretty sure thats the wattage] that i used on a previous car [which ran 90/130-120] and was great fa night cruizing lol at 120 [altho thats a bit hard ta do nowadays!]

wellll ..... nothing much has happened with the wagooon [surprise surprise....]

have moved again [now with garage AND covered carport ]

still have the wagooon BUT now hava EB 'S' as a parts car.... currently cleaning out garage & carport so i can put the wagooon in sed garage so i can start working on it [before it rusts away . . . .... lol]

'93 S pack with 5 speed, cruise- has rust in sills [altho not a great deal]





comes with a kenwood radio/cd player with aux input & remote .. plays good with me mp3 hooked up, just needs a sub.... any ideas anyone??

will use all front wiring [except ABS], dash, motor [will check make sure of condition as done 300/400k], gearbox & door trims. all these goodies will be fitted to the red wagooon AFTER i workout how/where the LPG is hooked up as i want to keep it. wheels are now either whats fitted to the re 'S' [snowflakes] or this 'S' or??

incase your wondering i prefer the wagooon to the sedan coz i want LPG ... girlfriend years ago hada EA sedan with LPG fitted & NO room for a pram!

has anyone fitted or tried fitting an AU roof lining??

so wagooon will use the '93 EB wiring [front] with an LSD out of an EA [rebuilt & fitted with the centre out of the EB sedan- 3.27:1] box/engine out of sedan, possible door trims [larger front speakers], not sure what front seats? [EA ghia wagooon?, '91 EB wagooon [current seats] or '93 [drivers requires repair] or other '93 [?] wagoon??


need some ideas on what other people use to remove plastic trim pieces [ie NOT a screwdriver] as i don't want to break any more than what i have now

the factory job will be shortened/modded to replicate the aftermarket chrome piece so i can use the original & if i wish i can change styles using aftermarket section etc etc

current 2 car garage has to be extended

I have seen one au roof lining into ef and it looks good as 1 piece though not sure if it lined up properly.

With removing trim besides buying the proper tools (which aren't expensive) I have used thin scissors to release clips and have even seen ground down long nose pliers to get the job done.

AU ya say?? i did see an AU wagoon roof lining fitted with the interior/sunglasses holder [which caught my eye] & i wondered......


yeah i bought the plastic tools from supacheap the other week. bit worried about breaking the plastic pieces [supports clips] but will have to bite the bullet soon ...... figure out which car i'm gunna practice on 1st tho and ...........

yeah sounds like a good idea with the pliers altho dunno about the scissors

so......

due to someone a few years ago i have replaced the pedal assembly





has been repaired at some stage .... will be inspected & what eva


i'm feeling excited

Nice car

p,s i wish i could have a set of snow flakes as sparies for my car / run them they are a tough looking rim still 25 years on!

also AU roof lining FTW, would anyone know if we can use AU rooflining in sedans ?

i know EA-EL are same

p,s its not to hard to be lady like and re glue material on the lining board etc but a AU one might be in half descent nic already
