Ahhh that chrome looks awesome!! I didn't know the Fairlanes had that. I guess I'll find out tomorrow........... I may have accidentally bought an NF Fairlane off eBay the other day. And by accidentally I may mean on purpose.

God only knows. It was $1000 and it looks pretty! I pick it up tomorrow, and then after that I have to try and get a roadworthy and rego..hopefully in the next month or so.

Check it out! http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/110749336074 ... 500wt_1257

Yup. I like the Fairmont too much to get rid of it :P but yeah ideally what I wanna do is slowly work on the Fairlane so it's something of a weekend cruiser. That and my dad will probably want to use it too.. he's got 2 vans for work so I'm sure he'd enjoy something a bit nicer :P
I'm really excited actually.

i managed to kick the solder join apart on my drivers door smd sometime in the past few weeks, so i rewired that today, and used those scoth clips/wire joiners and done my drivers footwell (done passenger last week), only a small one though as i didn't have much room for length and a sore back was disabling my patience for creativity, when it gets a darker i'll throw up a couple more pics.

anyone got any word on where to get some reverse polarity for the courtesy lamps in the rear and on the dome?!?!?

Could also try these
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/300563930628 ... 1439.l2649
I've ordered some but they haven't come yet. Tons cheaper but I don't know if they're as good.

well here's a couple pics, my apologies for the quality, i'll invest in a decent camera one day.

Image
the footwells, camera doesn't do much justice, you can see passengers is brighter, i'm happy.
also, left the yellow globes for a lil extra, nice tone to it. lol.

Image
door smd strips, all doors are the same so you get the idea, wired to footwells so they come on when doors are open and that.

Image
and again from drivers side.

cheers for that, let's hope they're compatible cos i just ordered four of them, lol.
$3.60, no loss.

I'm going out to Northen Wreckers and Pay n Payless tomorrow, to see if I can grab some of the Fairlane chrome moulds.

How do you take them off without breaking them?
Just yank at them?
Haha,

Oh wow, I love those door strips! They're awesome.

I got my Fairlane today.... I don't like it as much as I thought I would. haha. I'm not sure what to do with it now!
There are a couple more pictures in my garage thread thing if you fancy a look.

Haha,

with the front doors theres only the one screw on the inside of the door, you'll have to break the white clips in the pricess of yanking them out, but they don't make a difference.
back doors have a screw on one end and a nut on the other, but you can just slide the mould off the cap if the nut won't budge. it's a 2 minute job.

Thanks heaps mate.
And to fit them, you just cut them to size and then grind away the remainder?
