hi guys
i know its been a long time coming, but i finally got my A into G and loaded up my wagon pics.

www.aufalcon.com/au2sw

easier then loading up to photobucket at the moment, may decide to do that at a later date.
planed mods (as finances allow):
*XR front bar (series3 with driving lights)
*18 x 8 rims (still deciding on style etc)
*XR wagon bodykit from AWC (minus rear wing)
*Blue vinal GT stripes
*Pacemaker extractors and 2 1/2" exhaust
*Freshen up of the interior

So far, all i have done is put her on LPG and added an XR8 Tickford CAI. Baby steps......but it will slowly come together....maybe even become better then JC's wagon?

:P just kidding, but it'll be good when it's finally finished(?)

Looked in good nick when I saw it, even if it was stock. Cant wait till we see what you have in store for it, it should be good.

Nice base to work from. If you get the full AU1 XR wagon kit, yours will look better than mine - mine's a rear bar and pursuit front lip short of the total look I want!

au2sw · 24-03-2007, 09:14 PM

what i want to know is, to go the xr8 s3 bar, will i need to change my bonnet to suit? remember, its an au2 wagon. i know jc's is the s1 bar, so needed the s1 bonnet. or are they all pretty much the same? i have to be honest and say i havent taken that much notice of the bonnets on the xr's:(
oh and thanx for the comments guys. all i can think about is the damage on the left side and a bit on the interior from the previous owner and so i kind of see it as not all that great...if you know what i mean.

Yep you will need a low series bonnet, the one with the crease and ford badge on it. Good luck with it I'll keep an eye out :P

Damage?? Was there really? Seriously didn't notice it on the cruise eh and I did get to see your beast quite a bit (considering which bunch you decided to group with

: )

Your wagon was awesome and will be even more awesome after the 'freshen up'

au2sw · 24-03-2007, 09:55 PM

thanx heaps kenz

Looks nice and clean mate. Nice blank canvas to start with!

au2sw · 24-03-2007, 10:57 PM

alright, im going to make this easier for you all.....

hope this helps guys. and thinks for the positive comments

JC · 24-03-2007, 11:01 PM

Show us the left side! lol.

The Monty · 25-03-2007, 06:30 AM

I didnt even see the damage, but in the near future, I may have a spare au1 bonnet up for grabs, as I may be getting a high series bonnet, with the bulge, and a shaker chucked on top. Then my bonnet will go on mums car, and hers will be free. It is painted in organza though, so it will need a paint.

au2sw · 25-03-2007, 07:17 AM

rear left door is dented and scratched about half way up skin nearly all the way across, the front left guard is squashed in at the light (which has a cracked lense), the paint was damaged, but i have done a quick paint job to sort of hide it a bit (and protect from rust, looks ok from a distance) and the front bar is hanging down a little. i did pull it up a little, but its hard to get it to sit right with the left guard the way it is. so if any one knows of anyone wrecking an au, grab the left rear door, and front left guard for me

or at least let me know. not fussed on what colour they are, its not hard to paint a couple of panels.

looks like the modification race of the au 2 wagons is on lol

kenz · 25-03-2007, 01:38 PM

hahahaha! I thought that was one of them smart bars but when it loaded i realised what it was. Looks heaps good

au2sw · 28-03-2007, 06:10 AM

bring it on qldwagons

:P seriously though, it will be a slow process of mods, damn financial wall!! oh well, got to start some where though

kenz · 29-03-2007, 05:18 PM

Saw this one in town this afternoon Col. I was stopped at the lights so I got a happy snap of it. Maybe youve seen it around, theres also a blue one up over near the lighthouse area at Kings.

Too low for me, but still looks very nice with the XR bar.

ok thanks to qldwagons i now have a kit to start me off

the TS50 front bar and SR side skirts. little bit of work to do to them, due to the enevitable scrapage and re spray to white to suit the rest of the car and run blue GT stripes (still not sure if i want the twin or triple stripes yet), but all in good time.
