I think its possible to get the security removed from the ecu by an edit (possibly by ford). Otherwise just install the original BEM or a replacement BEM and get it trained at Ford.

I think the biggest issue is smartlock you can get a by pass for where I don't think they have one out their for smartshield, and it requires a coded key, they'res the possibilty of doing what was thought of earlier on for smartlock bypass having a secondary barrel tucked away switched to on. to obvisously avoid ruining the interior.
although as as been suggested a way to flash it, like used on barra conversion into the early models.

Although, I'm not the most knowledgeable on this sort of area.

Well been a bit slow lately but finally got a bit of progress on the old girl

few more updates lately.

got the bay blasted the other day so I can begin getting the engine in (to give me some more room in my shed haha)

Image

Image

bay came up really good, Only rust that I found was in the lower rad support section but I already knew about that bit. So my mate who is a far better welder then me made me up a new front and back section and we welded it all in

Image

Image

then we painted the bay. I know I was going to keep the car original colour but I really really wanted a metallic sort of colour and after alot different ideas I decided to go with the xy teal glow colour and im so glad I did. its come up a treat. Keeps it an original xy colour to but a bit more flashy haha

Image

Image

and cleared

Image

Image

Image

Image

and thats it for now, hopefully this wkend I can get the power steering and engine setup and everything in and have a bit more of an update.

Man, I cant wait to see the progress on this.
I love the idea of new tech in an old car.
And its a Panel van TOO!! Which makes it 10x cooler IMHO!

I had an XC Sundowner. Even had the small rear bubble windows and full shag-pile the whole way round the trunk.
Oh, and a '68 Mini Panel van - but thats a whole other story.

Cheers mate. Yeh still hard at it haha

Sooo first full day on the van today in a while so I was pumped to get as much done as possible.

Started early and got the rack in quickly. Looks really good in there

Image

Image

Everything was going great. Till I went to put the damn engine in

The starter motor hits on the rack so it had to be removed and I have to look at ways to either lower the rack more or forget about it and put the original back in

The aircon pump also hit real hard on the shock tower. Even with some "gentle" massaging with a mallet it still had no chance :( so now ive got a freshly painted bay. With a mashed shock tower and no aircon :(

Thats where I gave up for the day and left It. Looking into different pumps over the wkend and see what I can find. It's in tho and that's a start :)

Yep always helps hey haha. I was pretty bummed out when I left the shed today but the more I think about it now the more happy I am that it's all in there. Also rather then being frustrated I've had a few ideas that I have to try haha

Wow! this build is great! envy envy envy... but I gotta say, you must be the luckiest fellah alive the purchases you've made, I mean, any XY is sooo hard to get these days - but vans were hard to get even in the 80's... follow that with an XP coupe, another XY, the crashed 2k XR8, and the promo XY front with lotsa neat bits on it, you've done amazingly well! Don't let the holdups bum you out, I tend to go for a long bike ride or even a sleep and think it through the next day..many times at work the next day or riding the bike you have that `aha!' moment where all becomes clear.. keep going, mate, like everyone else, I cannot wait to see how this comes out. There's an XY van I see occasionally round my way, purple, built up like a GT, looks unreal..
