Edited Update: Mass Cheers to BenJ, he is going to sell me his spare climate control gear and deliver it to my door and also take the time to quickly assist me in swapping the oil pressure sender over to the sensor before he heads off
Piccies are delayed until next week cause everyone knows what an ef looks like so next week will be only pics and a bit of detail of dash re-removal, climate control install, oil pressure sensor being installed and dash re-installation. Although something is bound to go wrong as per usual Until next week......

I may as well say this. I am hoping to have front power windows soon courtesy of a sale on here
 so how hard is it to convert the front to power windows. i know there is a tec doco on here somewhere but i think its gone walkies

Hey BenJ,
Well today i put the wires through along the factory location for the front ambient temp sensor, just have to wire it up to the climate control module wiring  but can you confirm its only two wires for it so that if there is a third one i can add it on tomorrow.Cheers and also when you come up, feel abliged to park on my drive as my car will be parked up the top so that we can wack it away in the shade of the garage if we have to when the oil pressure s**t* gets swapped *s**t - my shortened version of stuff

Last night i decided to do a bit of thinking. at some stage in the future, Buy an EA GL wagon and a written-off ef or el fairmont wagon and swap all interior accesories like dash, console, climate control, Engine, all looms, handles, carpet, seats, Literally everything (another racedirector except using EA, not an ED), flat fuel flap, and maybe even an EF or EL XR front with the fairmont bottom half. pretty much an EA with EF interior as i like Black, EL XR front with the fairmont bottom half
Tell us what you think! it may be an excellent idea

Pics just so that everyone knows what has been done so far
 My custom work with the switches for fog lamps and a spare  Trip computer and me trialling my new modded surround.  trip comp and the new fixed-up surround  Car on idle with the fairmont cluster  EL tail lights  My Fav Pic  AU1 Rear view mirror or for those who dont know, e series have longer mirrors. a-series cars have the shorter one which means only see out the back window, no need to see everything else  Engine Bay Passengers side  Engine bay drivers side  That is all for now...............

Tidy looking wagon you have there. I hope mine comes out something close to that.
Except mine will be faster, coz it's red!

I did use to have a Cardinal red ED, but because we had no use for it as it had the 6 seats and we only needed 5, it got traded in for this EF ad that was january 2002

I think mine is Cardinal, http://www.fordmods.com/the-garage-f53/sooty72-s-ef-futura-wagon-long-term-project-t90025.html not sure yet, will find out when i need to buy paint i suppose.
I dont think I'll worry about the climate control, trip meter, and that sort of stuff. The interior is nice enough, and it all works!
