So far the conversion on my car has taken 7 months.

TS50 V8 engine, (so no BBM).
AU ECU, BEM (Smartshield) and Ign sw incl wiring.
BTR 97LE slushbox
EL front crossmember and rack
EL diff conversion complete with brakes.
EL Fairmont interior, incl shifting the handbrake to the floor.
EL auto climate control
EF XR cluster
EL wiring all the way from the front to rear, with adapter harnesses for the AU wiring.
EL abs fitted.
EL XR8 suspension fitted.
Shortened shifter and handmade billet alloy knob

The car has been pulled apart and put back together, after hours, with help from One Ford Drone and Spider.

To come are-

Blue LED interior
Repaint
Fairmont Ghia rear seats, and racing or reupholstered fronts.
Extractors and 3 inch system.
After the first 500 k's a complete service
17/18 inch rims (currently 16 inch CSA ultra's with 225 SS001's)
T-series Tickford Alarm

ok that is top shelf fellas.

One question though. I have my EBII S Pack. the front driver seat is horible. how did you change the seat rail on the EF/EL front seats to EB/ED

because i am contemplating changing the Door Trims and all the Seating to EL XR with the checker velour. or Fairmont what ever i can find is in the best condition

I took the rails to peices, (maybe thats why it took two days!) lol . need a big screwdrivers, to pry out the ballbearings in there ..

Then of course it did not go back together right, so I just the mounts from the ED seats, and the rails from the EL seats, and got a mate to weld them (the mounts) on! ...

So they still move back and forward fine ..

So the EF/EL door trims match perfectly to the EB dash? Im thinking about grabbing some trims if they do, not sure how hard theyll be to source. Not many wrecked EF/EL's around here (thas a good thing right?) :oops:

The EF/EL series centre consoles do not mate up with the EA/EB/ED dash's at all, they don't reach as far fwd. Also they do not attach in the same places on the floor.
