I see you got the EA on the road... and then some.

That BA looks entirely fixable, is it a project... and how's the AU?

Hi all,

Yep got the car from Broadford. They have a futura there at the moment too for 9900 but needs a tranny.

Mine has 11,000kms on it and it's an '04 model.

I am doing all the work in conjunction with work, we have to straighten the front end a little bit and replace the strut + control arm. Stay tuned as I have XR6 front and rear bars, skirts & XR8 bonnet sitting in the workshop waiting to be put on, also got MkII XR6 rims and many performance mods coming.

It took me over 30 mins to get the bloody thing on but only 1 minute to get the car off, those trailer's have the worst ramps, the rain and wind didn't help cure my nerves on the return trip ;)

Trouty: AU is going great, just got some 17" AU1 tickies on it, apart from that it *might* be for sale in the near future.

Now just have to sell the Hyundai and EA I've got here LOL to fund these new projects.
