well the mrs got a camry off her father that had been in a small stack, and needs rego by rebuary so i guess the falcon sits in the shed longer and the camry comes first, it needs a roof lining bumper headlight and 4 tyres and i guess because ill be using it for work and she never has any money ill be paying, she tryed telling me the falcon has to go because now we have the camry but PFT when hells frozen over is the only answer she got!!! lol
she doesnt have a licence so i guess the longer the falcon sits in the shed the less wear and tear it gets on it does anyone know if the 5 stud falcon wheels from e series will be fine on the camry? because at least i can save on tyres for rego then ill just need the roof lining and bumper and h light Attachment: 390631_10150471275969144_691189143_8332808_2040653216_n.jpg sorry dc todd, no boobs in this thread just old lady camrys

Let me guess, Best Buy? Nasty piece of kit they are. Little hint: if it s**t itself, tell them you had it in an old Datto or simmilar or you will be stuck with a battery that wont be warranted.

they only come with 6 months warranty and if anyone asks it was in a ford laser which is carby fed with no cd player and its my grandmothers haha, yeah just wanted a battery good enough to start it and move it round for now, then ill get a good battery after rego, cant see the point in getting a good one really if its sitting around for weeks without being driven anyway but just got sick of putting mums battery in the darn thing.
as for the camry it has a good battery in it so it wont give me any grief and i just realised i can put 6 months rego on it because it hasent ran out its still got rego on it so ill fix it up throw 6 months on it and use it for a while save up a crap load and then park the camry for a while and get the mighty ford out of hibernation, might try and smash a heap of 12 hour night shifts 6 nights a week if the boss has them for me and have a camry and foulcooon to drive, if the mrs got her Ls i wouldnt really use it id leave it for her to learn in because thats why it was bought

Haha... can't help it if you dont have the money I guess.
Is the camry a V6 or manual? FWD can be fun, a bit of the old slow-mo drift on maccas trays Had some fun times in FWD's.

3.0litre v6, its actually called a vienta or some s**t but i think that just means like the fairmont of camrys , it doesnt have power windows so its not too fancy, has awesome air con though,
the tyres are bald as F**k so today i might chase up the front bumper and/or headlight for the passenger side and look into getting 2 second hand tyres for the back of the EHELL because im quite sure the wheels will fit off that onto the camry?

well they knocked her for the back tyres because they were worn on the outside from being on the front of the fairmont a long time ago which i knew he would if anything was going to stop it i knew it would be them, but it was worth a try dropping the pressure a little to make them sit flatter and be less noticable lol, so just need 2 decent tyres and he will tick it off and im done,
i noticed the t5 or the diff had a whine on the way out to boolaroo but on the way back the noise had stopped so i guess it was just from sitting for 2 years without being driven, because i needed new tyres when i dropped my mate off i dropped a skid and left 1 single mark out the front of his house(on private road) and it instantly hit the limiter in a split second
