As the title states in am thinking about selling XR82GO and buying something that a can build up like an old F truck...50`s or 60`s era....just wanted to post up in here to see what you guys thought before i did post up that it is for sale.
Here is a link to all the work that Sylox had done to the car and i have done some more work to the interior as well and added some stripes up the side. http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthr...ighlight=sylox

go 15k in a few months I think I could look past the fact it's an auto then probbaly worth more than that in my opinion but depends on how quick you want your sale to be

Since i have got it i have finished the interior with blue swede on the roof and up the back ad on the A pillars...also have put stripes on the side with the tickford logo in it just to break up the black...i dont have an pics of the interior yet but will do soon..alo if you look at the front badge on the bonnet it has been changed to a custom Tickford badge as has the one on the tailgate

Rob I got 17 for my old one but that was mainly to get rid of it as I had the FG waiting. It had under 100,000kms and you know the rest.

I was cleaning out my old mags from work, a quick flick through a couple and I came across a write up for this ute when Andrew had it. Street fords Special edition. It's really an impressive ute. Good luck with the sale.
