Get some turbo blades for it and a Ghia rear garnish, then it will actually look like a Ghia. Then superlows, 5 speed etc. The list goes on.

Rego is going to be a pain to pay with 2 falcons
Just out of curiosity, why did you go for another car when you've already got an ED? Good luck with her thou

well if all go's to plan i'm gonna tear apart the wagon and rebuild it and i'm gonna need a car while thats happening then after that might just aswell do the same to the ghia
all depends on how much $$$ i have left over after rego/insurance:

Looks good like a good start tommi
Now, i reckon you should fix the dent in the wagon, and flog it off for some more $$$. Then spend it on the ghia ;) Lowering (dumped of course haha) and clear indicators and you'll be laughing mate! If you must spray it, both colours you mentioned would look good as ;) Jared

Good stuff Tommi, should be a cheap to run runabout with the engine replaced. If you are going to modify it, my only advice is to organise exactly what you are trying to achieve before you start. Changes of mind and redoing things gets very expensive and leaves nothing to show for the dollars and time spent.
PS, you'll find multiple car ownership is "fun". :P |

clear indicators, lower it, ghia garnish and keep it the same colour just fix up the primer bits on the back. That'll do for a daily.

yeah that seems like a good idea,actually ive been spending lots of mulah on the old spac and the wagon only to change alot of it again so maybe i should properly plan out the ghia i've already found that multiple car ownership is 'fun' :P there goes the ed's exhaust.... low suspension... manual conversion...:P but in the end hopefully ill have something good to show of it all, i dont really want to get rid of the ghia in a hurry, this thing seems to have every thing ill ever need for the time being BTW: ill be putting the ef ghia rims from the wagon on it on the weekend, just so i can have rwc tyres on the wagon again but still i recon the ef ghias will better suit the ghia
