Re: Crap cars of the past - your hypothetical ultimate ****box project?

Well, I already hotted up an EA so know all about doing up cars with a crap reputation, and to be honest I made it a cool car, so yeah, I'd do it again. In Fairmont Ghia guise it was a very comfy car and pretty stylish for it's time. With the Multipoint 3.9 and a 5 speed, it actually went pretty quick too. They were certainly by no stretch perfect (front end alignment was always working it's way out, power windows etc gave a few headaches) but it certainly wasn't the POS that people made them out to be.
