well a while back i sold my old ED fairmont, and straight after i regretted it. it was such a nice car to work on not to mention the good time had. well i found a year ago and brought it back, its been sitting in a mates paddock and then my driveway untill now. ive decided its time to do the build i always wanted. V8 conversion, leather interior etc etc. so its started stripped the whole front end. getting all new parts/ getting parts powdercoated where needed etc. once i get the suspension back together it will be going off to get the engine bay sprayed.

ive also sorced a nc ltd interior with electric seats, and full didgital dash which i will get all wired up to work with doors etc. (all of which will be covered to suit my idea for the interior)

a bit before i sold it

stripped for paint and new suspension

Thats pretty awesome selling the car and then buying it back. Minus the fact that you got it back, did you profit otherwise -- was it more expensive to buy back than what you sold it for? Good to see the strip down and the prep you're going to to get it back up and out there again.

Look forward to keeping my eye on this one.

Yea i got it back cheaper then i sold it, it changed hands twice after i sold it. Was nowhere near as nice as when i first had it but its still my car saw it sitting at a hungry jacks with a mate one day so had to pull over and sus it out. The guy walked out and asked why i was looking at his car, i laughed and said na mate this is my car i built it. Then asked if he would sell it back to me.
