Default 74xbkoops rebuild

Hi All,

Now that I have sort of finished my toy I thought I might share the ups and downs of the last eight and a half years.

My passion all started when I bought my first car a 75 XB fairmont coupe back in 1987. Call me a dumb a@# now but I sold it after about 5 years of great times. It was a very sad day.

I got the bug to get another one early 2003. I traced down several for sale but ended up being a day late on each of them, some bastard was just in front of me and bought all of them. I ended up finding this one an hour from home. It looked good (looks can be deceiving) Had been resprayed, looked straight, Fired up fine and a heap of genuine ford NOS parts.

This was how it looked then









It was a 74 XB Fairmont, 302, Top loader, Borg warner, Pepper red, Tan interior.

I was in heaven again Back in a coupe.
