Ride: GLXR 6

Location: Perth
WA, Australia

Hey guys, well in the past few years, i've owned a Ford EF Falcon. Start of this year, i wanted to kill it. I put in on the market for about 2 months, but with no luck (as you would with a 6cyl), i decided im gonna mod it and keep it.
So, in the past few months or more, i've been working on my car.
It used to be a stock standard EF 1995 Falcon, but now its somewhat of a EL XR6 :D
With the help of my old man, and these forums, i've turned it into something worth looking at.

CAR: 1995 Ford EF Falcon Auto (Suppose it can be mistaken for a EL XR6 now? :))
MODS:
EL XR front end conversion
EL XR full body kit
XR Rear spoiler (Not shown in pics)
Navy Blue (N9) 2Pac paint (with extra metalic :P) and heaps of clear!
Full Pedders lowering kit. Super lows all round with adjustable gas shocks
Rolling on 18x8 Extreme Chrome Wheels with Wanli 235 low profile tyres
Alpine cd player, alpine Type-S 6x9's, Clarion 2 channel amp, 15" Alpine VR sub (System needs updating badly)
AU3 XR Steering wheel
AN ELECTRIC AERIAL (best mod ever!)

Well thats about all my mods till today.

Hopefully soon:

DBA slotted front rotors, slotted & crossed drilled rears (All looks baby!)
2.5" lukey mandrel bent exhaust (no rear muffler) with PH4480
Whiteline swaybars (30mm & 24?)
Braided brake lines :D
Full nolathane bush kit!
Replace some control arms here and there
Pacemaker extractors (finished all off with a nice polished dual 3" tip)
Wade I636 cam (with some mild headwork)
LSD diff with 3:45 gears
Maybe some intake mods (3" pipe, K&N, airbox mod)

Clear repeaters mod

Thats all what i hope to have completed in the coming months. Not in that order of course hehe.


People i wanna thank.
First off, my old man. He's a 53 year old 1 man wonder. Without him, i guess i wouldnt be part of these forums. He's made this car what it is today. Instead of paying thousands, ive payed pennies! All thanks to him, literally!.
Next up, fordmods.com! These forums was the most helpful source of information for a ford falcon, and for that, i thank you guys :D
Okay, for my little list.

UglyBob (This guy is a genius, cheers mate. Frase has helped me throughout the build up, and still is. He's my fordmods guru hehe. We've been like women, private messaging each other every day lol! I owe you big time mate :D!)
Bob Hall from CCS (Was really helpful and cheap with the body kit :D Anyone after a body kit, contact Bob! )
eeyaygirl (Without you, my car would still be a kitted out EF Falcon :D Thank you heaps! )
EDXRSW (Thank you for the bonnet bulge. At such a low low price, it was a steal. Great work on the bonnet..couldnt be any happier :D )

Appologies to those who'm i've missed out, but i hope you all know how thankful i am.

Now for some pics!

What it used to be...

looks great, not a fan of the wheels though, and you should drop the shocks to the lowest setting :lol: Oh and take some decent photos, the before photo is of the whole car, all the new ones are just little snippets. :P Job well done though. How much was the body kit ?

Hehe thanks guys!
Tell me about it Bob. Made a great decision getting the kit, specially through you instead of anyone else. Saved me a heap of money!

Thanks once again :)
