EF Futura

[low_ef]

Thought i should do the right thing and introduce myself properly to everyone.

My names Michael most people just call me greco or little greco if you know the other one. Moved to Cairns from Silkwood with my brother last year and I am currently studying a diploma of science at JCU before later on moving into town planning.

I'm the proud owner of a white 1996 ford ef futura and a not so proud owner of a silver 1997 ford laser.

Anyway heres a few pics.

Would make one of those cool looking slide shows but photobucket doesnt do it so ill just post more pics!

Interior






My tint!




Photoshop!


All the pics of the car with the silver things on the side are old ones. They used to scrape on everything and dig into the grass when i parked in the yard.

Umm nah wasnt me. I did do a nard lap today tho lol. I go down trinity heaps cause a mate of mine lives down there at oyster court or wateva it is.

Its 15% tint. Best mod on my car by far!

It runs good, transmission was shifting really hard the 1st few days but its smoothed out now.

Ohh righto, mum just said some green P - Plater in a white Falcon was cruising around Trinity, thought it may have been you...

Your tranny isn't shift kitted or "shift enhanced" as they say by any chance?

Need opinions...... as you can probably see in my pictures ive only painted upto a certain point on the doortrims and dash. Thinking about painting the rest of the way.. should I? or is that too much paint?

+1 for stay with the two tone Black over Grey - unless you are planning to go with black carpets?

Cheers
