G'day Folks,

I'm new to Ford Forums , thanks for having me.

I have a question I hope someone can answer. I have an FGX XR6 Turbo ute that has the fascia around the heater controls that is scratched. Does anyone know of a paint code to match the factory silver colour?

Thanks in advance.

cheers

Paul

Hi there,
Thanks for letting me join the forum. I have recently purchased a 1996 NL Ghia 302 Fairlane. Purchased the car with my 3 sons to give them a hands on experience on restoring car and getting to use all the tools that goes with it.

Thanks for the invite.

Cheers

Hi all
Recently joined the forums here.
I have an MB XR5T Mondeo
Purchased it mid last year, by the time it got from Vic to Qld / up here, and then roadworthy etc done, it ended up being September before I actually got to drive it. (Transport took its sweet sweet time getting up here)

Really love this car a lot - not my first Ford, have had numerous ZK/ ZL and even an FC up to now.
My other current car is an MA Wagon LX.

Really love the MB Xr5 she's fully stock currently, I'm unlikely to do any big mods to it power wise.
The only thing I've done to it so far, is get the worn leather section repaired, repaired the sagging sunroof shade, and last week i changed the head unit to Alpine.

Cool Re: Welcome to New Members - Post here to say gday!

G'day everyone, hope all is well.
It's been a minute.

Does anyone know if 351 Block would fit 302 95 Fairlane? Dad say's it would mean more compression, they used to do that before EFI.
Either way i'm looking for a reco block, I have everything else.

Peace!

Good Morning all,

Just joined...

Will be taking delivery of a 2021.75 Biturbo Everest Trend later this week having owned a 120 series Prado for the past 19 years...

Considered other vehicles but, Everest ticked all the boxes I was looking at, was actually available to purchase & was very nice to drive...

Here's hoping for another 19 years of trouble free motoring... it will have big shoes to fill....

Hi All,
I've been a member for a while now but this is my first post, my ride to date has been an AU111 Furura Wagon, and from Friday just past I have purchased a Territory 2006 SY SR RWD. So I guess I'll be a more regular visitor to the forums as I get to know and sort out any problems with my recent purchase.
Thanks for having me in AFF.
