It's a March 93 XF Falcon ute, was owned by the Hermit Park Hotel for a fair swag of its life, so I'm sure it's seen a bit of grog.
I paid $200 for it off a bloke down the road, head was removed and bores were all rusted out. It had been sitting in his yard for 4 odd years.
I'm planning on putting the V8, BTR Trans and all the wiring out of my NC Fairlane V8 into it, painting it yellow and put a set of wheels on it. A little bit of a tidy cruising ute.
I haven't got many pics lately, or at all but here's a few
Was filthy from sitting!!!
Pulled the motor and box out. Will eventually scrap the motor with a car going to the tip but I will keep the T5.
Put to bed for now.
The bonnet was stuffed and the right front guard was dodgie, considering the left was an XG guard, I got a right XG guard for it and another bonnet which is rust free.
The cab floor has a tiny bit of rust on the drivers side, 50c piece size.
There is some in the tub, on that panel between the headboard and fuel tank cover, I have already got a new piece folded up to go in there.
I start uni holidays next week so I plan to get back into it.
I will probably also put the fairlane climate control unit in aswell as it is R134a and this ute was one of the last R12 cars, and it had no A/C gas in it, seems typical with anything on R12 haha!
.. the XF front just does nothin in the terms of the "muscle look"
