Well, i've been hangin around here for a while and i'm on night shift at the moment, so i thought it was about time i started a build thread..
I bought the fairlane a while ago from a family friend and thought i'd only keep it for a short while.. well, i was wrong... the mod bug hit and it's been going ever since.. here's how she looke at the start..  i soon got bored and put it on 17's   they didn't last long when i saw a set of 20's i liked.. also played around with the grille a bit..  i found an LTD bonnet mould and bought chrome mirrors and blinged it up a bit..

i slowly pieced a TL50 bodykit together, all genuine, and got it all sprayed and put it on..
    i then got a sportsman steering wheel and a T-series cluster and put it in..   she stayed like this for a while..

i got sick of the 20's and sold them..
she sat on stockies for a bit.. man that was comfy....!  well, i then found another set of rims that i liked and put them on..   i found TL50 door spears and t-bar on ebay and snapped them up very quick..  put the in straight away and was stoked!! along with an ESS steering wheel and i bought all the other T-series bits from ford... VERY expensive !!

   also got T mats and MOMO shifter    got the Tl50 bonnet and boot badges too and this is how she sits now..
