Hey All.
Just thought i would say hi to all and introduce myself and my car. My names Scotty, Im 19 and live on the Central Coast of NSW. I just bought a 1998 EL Fairmont for $6500 in perfect condition, except for two small scratches on the front passenger door and a small crack in the windscreen. Cant wait to start modding and going on cruises to meet everyone. Cheers Scotty. Here are a few pics of my car. http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...scotty/001.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...scotty/002.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...scotty/003.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...scotty/004.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...y/P7130006.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...y/P7130007.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...y/P7130008.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...y/P7130009.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...y/P7130010.jpg |

Nice clean Fairmont, youve got there. Man those clean EF/EL Fairmonts seem to be becoming the weapon of choice for the next generation of Ford fans.

Welcome. It is a nice looking car besides that damn reflector tape. Seriously, what posesses people to stick stuff like that on a car? Anyway, you will love the forums. It won't be long before you're addicted!

Bummer about the tape pulling paint off. Have you tried heating the tape with a hair dryer to loosen the adhesive? Might have a bit of success that way. Good to hear the reflectors on the door are going My Fairmont had grandpa spec bonnet protectors, headlight protectors and number plate surrounds when I bought it. They lasted bout 30 minutes in my driveway LOL. Darin
