Yeah you should easily get something nice for $1500.

There's been a 1991 EB Fairmont in the paper. It needs a new bar, light and bonnet, but it's only $450.

It's got a velour interior apparently, I'm not sure if it's registered or not.

You should be able to grab a light from your EB, and the bar. And convert it to LPG with a second hand system later on.

A nice Fairmont daily for less than 1K..


that seems alright but i dont really want to have 2 falcons as it will feel like im driving the same car all the time if you get what i mean?

Rocker cover looks pretty pro.

And the tray floor looks awesome too, makes it look like it's got a tub liner.

BTW David asked if I can pick the XD up tomorrow. He's not going to be home on Tuesday. I'm going to call and see what time the service station is open until tomorrow and see what the go will be.

If that doesn't work out then I'll try and arrange with David to pay him for it and see if it'll be ok to pick it up when he isn't there on Tues..

Nothing works out like you think it will :roll:

But I'm not sure what time the service station closes on a Sunday, so I'll let you know tomorrow what the go is.
