Hi folks,
this site was a great help to me over the 2years I have owned my EL Fairmont, giving me advice on where to get parts and ideas I had. Im in a position now where I have purchased another ford to have a change and im struggling selling my car. I am utilising the Trading Post ( QLD) , carsales.com, carpoint.com, carsguide.com and local newspapers. I have been advertising for 4 weeks now and had no calls or interested buyers. Is there any other way i can use the site to help me sell. I do not have point acess to the "forsale" section. I have access to pics via the link / site below on community webshots. My hopeful price is $12200 - reduced greatly form my original asking. http://commuinty.webshots.com/user/ewanjohn * Any help would be great thanks |

I'm saying that I wish I could get them for that.
I'd have two 
I paid 16,500 for mine. There was a guy in my area seeking in excess of 20. That one on E-Bay had a buy it now for 20, it had a 347 in it though, but the body wasn't perfect.

That price is way over the top.
I'm selling a 97 EL Fairmont Ghia V8 with XR8 bodykit on it and I have only had 3 bites in 3 months and that was at $11500. I've dropped to $10500 now and still not much happeneing. I would be looking under $10k for you car easy. |

Only 184 Manuals were made, out of 356 total, and I dunno how many have been written off. They've actually gone up a bit in value. Few years back you could pick up a nice one for $14,000. Mine JUST ticked over 100,000, night before last. Should hold it's value nicely. But I'll never sell it, so it's a moot point. Timmeh, EL V8's over here are around for the 12-13 mark. WA must have more of them or something! What's really worth ridiculous amounts are XH's.

Yeah, that amount of K's scares off the people who don't know there fords.
I was toying with the idea of flogging my Fairmont to buy an EL, but with over 300,000 I'd never get anything near enough for how good a car it is. Better off just modding it
Dare I say 347 for your EL?
A stroked Ghia... now that's an idea!
