They went in surprisingly well for a car that is ment to be completly different, I suppose the AU isnt much different to an e-series except for the extirior!

The front seats for the Au and E-series are the same molding, except the rails are defferent, its just a matter of unbolting the lower half from the back half, and changing the seat cushion over.

And here's it all in the car, just need to make some hooks still for the rear bottom half to lock into, and fit the side bolster's properly in the rear back half

So Kilma you can use 3x-pusui7 seats for your car lol. im sure he wont mind!

Got this manaul here which mite be goin into the EF soon. Asked a few people wether or not i should bother, but because of the power robing nature of the 4spd BTR, its will be a good performance mod.

Had this box here for bout a year collecting dust, so mite as well put it to use.

This is cast into the housing near the shifter, 0552-066902 can some one confirm this part number for a V8?

Yeah the lengh is different on the 6/8 cylinder box for some reason. but also heard the internls arn't as strong, dont wana go putting a 6cyl T5 behind a V8, that could be destructive lol.

LICENECED now f*** Yeah!!!!!!!

Took it for a nice run last night drives good, but the diff is like a open center though. And the tyre pressure was a little down as pointed out to me numerous times lol. Has a small fuel leak somwhere at the back near the tank, can realy smell it bad when im driving, was giving me red eyes and a headache form all the fumes

first thing was to smash the faded grill back out to allow some air to my intake (what was ford thinking)

The boat suspension realy needs to go asap, will hopefully do this tomoz as its quite dangerous how it sways/rolls around. Soo the kings SL will be goin back in.

Then after that the new rims will be bolted up then she'll start looking half decent again,

Good stuff, Nic, you seem really chuffed about it. wadesta/thumbsup.gif

Good to see another windsor going strong.

wanna get mine licensed for me nick haha

Windsor ftw!!!

Depends what DPI your tacking yours to gav, I went to welshpool as you dont need to pre-book, its just a matter of buying a pass and lining up, they do mostly new cars there but seem more understanding, the new engine number's where written down so its all complianced now too!

But the rego papers now show it as a falcon though, he was like WTF is a monty haha due to the dodgy badge i made in place of the fairmont one lol.

The fairmonts now take pride of place in the drive haha
