RUKIDN · 21-12-2007, 06:55 PM

Agreed with the bonnet, dont agree with you about the interior! The interior of this thing is mint, I love it!

Its hard enough to find JETXR pics then trying to find them in orange, the pics on that site look like it has just been put back together and prob the pain is not finished

Agreed. The interior is WAAAY over the top with all those guages.

Paint and body looked good, engine bay is nice. Hole in the bonnet looks TERRIBLE!!!

Rice???? Are you kidding! It lookes dead sexy and still looking very tough, plus has big aussie six in it! If had choice over it or BF XR6t, would take the EL anyday, nicest one i have seen.

1FLYRYD · 22-12-2007, 04:05 PM

hmmmm sweet as does any1 know of a tech thread on the engine conversion i was wanting to put a BA motor in mine for ages i actually posted a thread everyone called me crazy and rekon that it wouldn't be worth doing, well that magical piece of machinery is living proof.

If only i had 30k

Google JETXR as when i was searching for it there were a few tech threads about BA motors in E-Series

bentles · 22-12-2007, 05:09 PM

the reason its orange is because he hit a roo on his way home from a show last i heard it caused 30k of damage and he wasnt insured because of his engine etc.

either way i liked it before and still like it. but 30k for an e-series is crazy in todays age.

Looks similar to SICAZZ's interior...........

chich · 23-12-2007, 04:49 PM

At least the stance/wheel combo is perfect. The orange respray is just plain wrong..

Just another 2 cents worth.
If i was going to WASTE that much cash on a car id get a decent au momo steering wheel so the thing could at least have a chance of being legal the lack of an airbag on a 30k car is ridiculas.
30k for a 12 year old falcon is crazy does it even come with engeneers certificate ect for that ?
Nice concept and hands of to the builder of this rig but i think itl be hard to sell for 30k.
