I have been to a couple of hobby stores and have asked if they have any modles of ford EA's through to EL's and all have said that they were never made. I really dont believe that, theres gota be some small scale collectables of the eb/el gt's or even the V8 supecars.
Does anyone know if any models of the e-series were made becuase i wouldnt mind just a base model eb to put in my room and if i could get a v8 fairmont in peacock green i would be really pleased. cheers |

VERY hard to find.
about the only ones that are easy to get are the EF Futura, which were relatively small. anything bigger then that is extremely rare I've got an EL V8 supercar, which was about $300 when new. Heres proof they exist, how ever trying to find one would be hard [img]hxxp://www.deleted link/pics/mt/97/djr.jpg[/img] They also made EB GT scale models, but again, hard to find.

ive got the 98 bathurst winner, and the dick johnson EL. both are classic carlectables and a scale of 1:43.
Me and my dad have quite a few models, most are biante and classics, cant wait till they make EL GT's and all other e-series. |

perhaps we should all send a message to biante and classic carlectables to build all ford e-series.
with enough interest they may think about building them. |

There are no 1:18 scale E-series fords from classics or biante. Classics only made ef/el supercars in 1:43 scale, and the quality is nothing compared to the new ones. Biante made an EF gli in white and champagne in 1:43 of better quality. There are a few rare, handbuilt models of e-series supercars, but no eb or el gt falcons (atleast i've never seen any on my travels) Give it time, and classics and biante will have to make some E-series falcons in 1:18s, especially the 1994 Johnson/Bowe EB and the 1998 Bright/Richards EL. Bet left nut that one of these two will be the first 1:18 E-series Biante or classics will do. Biante is already doing VR/VS commodore supercars in 1:18, so i can't see why they would'nt do the E-series supercars.

Sorry to go off topic a bit guys, but what would you say would be the more collectable of the Pirtek BA's?
The no. 4 car or the no.1? |

Well I have a 1:43 reef green EF futura, hub caps and all!
Got it off ebay for $20! They are not that rare though. Im slowing getting 1:43 model of every falcon, XK-BF, and I so far have never seen a stock XD, XE, XF, EA, EB, ED. Its going to pis$ me off as everything else is pretty easy to get.

The proportions on the front of those EB touring cars don't look right. Seem to have too much overhang. And the winglets on the front splitters weren't that big in reality.
