Thought i might give you all an update on how my project EA is going. Last time i posted she was a rolling shell in primer.
Since then, she's been painted, 99% put back together and a new kit was slapped onto it. Still a few miscelaneous things need to be done, side skirtz, lip spoiler, front door trims, other parts of the interior and some mechanical peices just to name a few, but all in all about 1-2 days work left![]()
Let us know what you's thinkTry your best to see past the blue oval badge :P

That is clean as mate![]()
Paint looks awesome, just needs a tidy up on the inside
Let us know how it goes on the dyno..
Driving a CURSED WH V6.
thats hot, engine specs please?
Mate, i gotta say that's a great job you've done there!![]()
Very nice for a ford!![]()
That looks awesome!! The colour really suits it. It's got to be one of the best looking Falcons i've seen.
EF XR6 4.0l motor, Powerdyne blower with 9psi pulley, straight gas research system (twin converters and s440 carby), intercooled, 3 inch intake piping, 3inch exhuast, hiflow cat, mild headwork, mild cam, ported lower intake, lengthened pacemaker headers, manual, cussion button clutch, 3.7:1 diff, CAI, haltech ecu, turbosmart BOV and porcelaine coating as far as the eye can see.
Yet to have her dynoed with the current setup, but made 188.6rwkw with an auto, smaller cooler, water injection and no haltech (therefore no way to adjust timing). Hoping for maybe the 210-220rwkw mark now, but will be happy with anything over 200![]()
Gotta say mate thats awesome work you have done there. Very nice falcon.
But I have to say, it doesnt look as nice as a done up Commy![]()
Love the bonnet, looks tough as on that. Nice Ford mate.
nice roses man they loook great![]()
I've driven a few EA/B including 5spd XR6's, they go alright !

Nice work!
needs a holden badge
nice car man. sounds like its got some serious push in the cush. if ya know what i mean. its a really nice ford you got there mate. i would love to see some ricer boy's face when you blast his supra off the line with a ford...that would be funny. but not a guy with a commy, i would feel for him
YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY.......WAIT......NO I DONT
but not a guy with a commy, i would feel for him = It wouldnt happen![]()
Nice ride though mate she looks nice, really shinny paint job![]()
Any plans on changing the steeerng wheel? looks kinda fat in my eyes..
Is it a tickford at all? my mate has an EA isn't sure if the badges are real or not.
nice clean work....i like that shape.
good colour choice too
looks nice, now you just need to tidy up the inside a bit
1995 Manual HSV Clubsport
Wade Cam :: 9.2:1 CR :: Pacemaker headers :: Twin 2.5" Exhaust :: VT Brakes
1991 Supercharged VN Berlina
9 PSI SC14 Intercooled :: Genie headers :: Twin cats :: HM Twin 2.25 exhaust :: 3.45:1 LSD

The steering wheel will stay, i love the look of it. Not going for a custom look on the interior, the plan is to keep it looking factory and classy, with any alterations looking like they were meant to be there. Basically it'll just be an NL interior with black and woodgrain highlights. With the steering wheel, i will be painting the airbag cover black, so hopefully that may sway your judgment :P I should have some completed pics of the interior tomorrow so stay tuned
As for being tickford, no EA's were tickford. Tickford was introduced in the EB's. My car has an xr6 motor in it but that's about as close to tickford as it gets...
looks great, nice clean exterior, little more interior work and it'll be set![]()
attn Über geeks, i play Second life. Patrio Graysmark.
Ive always liked those model fords done up, i was actually a ford lad when growing up and then my first car was holden which completly changed my perspective, looks tough bet its got the goods to back it up aswell, grats on the job
p.s i was wondering where you got to and what that ford was up to
Nate
