I'm not putting any tickets on myself. Whoever saw a meteorite grey AU2 FAIRLANE SPORTSMAN at the GEELONG ALL FORD DAY will know what I'm about and have a rough idea of which field I work in.

hmmm well im no mechanic, nor do i know a darn thing about cars, i have no clue where anything is in the engine bay except the oil, water and wiper flillers are :P
But i am very good with wiring, soldering and lighting, useless crap like that which gets you no where in life. im 17 and mod xbox's and work at a chicken shop for money. Just bought a AUII off a guy in these forums for a great price no doubt you will see an xbox system rigged up in it along with custom blue leds installed in the dash  If im brave enough to dissasemble the dash. As another member said before "im good at taking things apart but putting them back together is a problem" cheers |

Me is Axle. I'm just a loozer who likes AU's. Alot.
I know a bit about um, commerce and computers? Don't know a thing about cars, so i learn here. Next goal is to learn how to do my own oil changes on the XR6. yes that's how bad i am with mechanical stuff. so if you have a business question ask away haha! and if i'm answering anything mechanical it's just a rehash of what someone smarter has told me  :

I don't actually know anything about anything but for general info I can usually manage to put my hands on it.
Likewise for forum related stuff I can probably point you in the right direction. Cheers Russ

I'm Tim,
This thread is beginning to sound like an AA meeting but anyways... Parts Interpreter and rural kickaround sorta fella, I'll give anything a try twice (once to break it and twice to break it worse trying to fix it  : )Currently trying to convince my DP to let me do 25% discounts on genuine Ford parts for AFF members, I'll let you guys know how that little argument goes over the next couple days... In the last six months the only work on my ute that was outsourced was the painting of my front bar ( thanks AWC for supplying the top notch f/g products), and the bending of some 2.5inch exhaust pipe so I could weld it on. Extractors, front bar, skirts, wiring amp and fitting speakers, wired up driving lights in my front bar (and they worked!!!  ) and lots of other little things were all done by myself, in other words if I can see roughly how something goes I can generally make it go  : Have daily access to latest Ford parts catalogue, so any wierd and wonderful enquiries pm me and I can email catalogue pics, part numbers, etc. Hope we all can be of assistance :alien2: Regards Tim
