Looks very classy Georgio, nothing wrong with these tanks in stock setup IMO. Planning on throwing the stockies back on mine for a charity cruise in a couple of weeks for that classy look!
But like huggie said, they do gain a lot with lowering and that straight lines look

remember though, mine was once way heigher than that, so you have nothing to worry about



Cheers,
Mick

OUCH! That sux donkey balls
Bad enough when you write your own car off.......I bet you were in a homicidal rage being rear ended like that
Good luck with the new LTD......more pics needed

Nah, but I'm still suffering from a knee and shoulder injury.

It wasn't the car behind me that cause the acco, it was the car behind him. 5 cars in total involved I was #3 in the middle. So it was a big acco.

This is why you have a daily. Otherwise, this would have been the GT-P

damn straight.

t'was it the GT-P

I'd be like....


Then Canberra be like....

Meh! you can buy a new GT-P but Fairlanes are limited editions now!

If you can do that to canberra, how much will it cost for it to happen? will it cost any extra for it to happen while the red headed troll is there?

thanks huggiebear
dw after i get the rust repaired, dents out and paint done i'll pop in some bags and she'll be all set.
Don't look at it there, she looks perfect cause i spent a while doing retouching in photoshop

thanks NCIILANE well first this is forst i really need to get her painted cause i've really REALLY heavily retouched this in photoshop to get it looking like that, in reality she's got little bits of rust here and there, little dents here and there and the paint is shocking so its gonna cost me about 5grand to get her repainted. Then i'll start worrying about ride height and all that.

Haha, I was going to say how beautiful it looks until you wrote that! Oh well. It still has to potential to look that nice

hahah this picture still looks nice though!
amazing what photoshop can do aye

Haha definitely, and yeah, still an awesome picture!

OK Lane/LTD owners, I have finally tracked down a guy who can get the correct chrome side strips made. They are done in a chrome metal film and will certainly be an improvement on the original trims, which by the age of these cars, would look crap on most, as mine do.

Here is a copy of his email response for more details:

"Hi Mick,
I have a DC LTD but there are two different types of size strips on the NA to NC series. The larger one on the bumpers we cannot do due to the chrome metal film not bending around the corners properly, however we can redo the side mouldings on the large style fine. The smaller style we can do however the corners are still not 100%, but very acceptable, & again we can do the sides that turn out brand new. The next series up for nf nl df dl & fairmont we have the different sizes for & as they are thinner than the earlier models we can provide all these sizes in the chrome metal film as well as a aftermarket extrusion for the front & rear bars.
If you can measure up the two sizes required & the amount of rolls you were looking at i can get back to you with a bulk price."

As stated above, he can do later models as well. So let me know who is interested and I will get him to do bulk lot pricing. Otherwise I will just buy enough to do my car to see how it turns out and pass on his info if successful.

Cheers,
Mick

Took some pics of the 'new' LTD.
Late in the arvo not the best time to be taking photos. But I did what I could...
