What to do with a E-Series...?
brought this EB2 Gli for $200 on Gas and optioned with cruise control... bodies not to bad... think ill just put a AU engine in it and leave it at that... as you can see from the engine shot i towed it here... also have some EL XR rims for it... wont be happening for a while as my AU has just put me a fair way into the -$

a good cut and polish should bring her up. you should be able to get a cheap au donk or if it were mine id be looking for an ef el tickford motor and box. cut the springs in half so it lays on its guts.

If you just want it to last a little bit longer, clean the outside, chuck some better rims on (not necessarily aftermarket) and as you said, AU engine because they'll be the bomb diggedy. May trip computer .
phong =P~

just won a 96 EF2 Gli parts car on ebay... so the eb will be getting...
EFII Gli Interior EF mirrors and door handles (green atm lol) EF thermo Fan Conversion EF I6 including ecu and all wiring looms (depending on condition, has done 240,000kms and runs for a few seconds but them cuts out hopefully just fuel filter or something simple) What do i have to do to remove the gas from the EB then fit it to the EF engine???... don't want to gas myself by undoing the wrong thing...
