[ROOSTA]

Yer i have a mate here in Albury who just finished painting his car in a similar colour although his is just a stock eb..

The body kit, mainly front bar and spoiler really has me intrigued.. I have never seen that style before..

i have never seen a front bar like that it looks like a mix of a couple a std bar with a sprint bottom lip and a ef el falcon centre?

[ROOSTA]

Yer thats wat i was thinking a mixer.. But looks fairly well done.. And from the pic's the rear looks just as different..

Spoiler looks a little out of place.. But the whole package is different and eye catching thats for sure.. LOL..

[ROOSTA]

....ummm honestly YUK! I don't like any of it. :
I just don't think any of it suits the car, I never really liked that purple on the BA anyway let alone on an EB with a wing thats from outer space!

Maybe if he got some decent wheels, got rid of the wing, lowered it some more and gave it a general tidy up it might look ok.

i think i need a bucket : : : i hope that belongs to a female...

The original TSS Was a Twin Screw Supercharged 6..

Purple Flash is a member of the all ford club of queensland. I have seen the car in the flesh and its very impressive. I hope that i can get my car to the high finish of it. Also the interior has all been custom trimed in purple and a cream sort of colour that works very well. I do agree i needs nicer wheels, but up here it can be risky having bigger wheels

wonder how he scored the TSS kit.
rare as anything.

Hmm from the pics it looks like the quality of the car is pretty poor to me. May be different in the flesh.

purple flash is a lady to start with ;)

her name is Liz. very nice lady

i personally like the car. interior is very well done as el_venom said its purple and cream.
and yes im not to sure of the wing. little big for my liking i think.

but still over all a nice car!

[bingoTE50]

Liz is an older girl , but young in spirit....

The car in general is in neat condition. It has a good audio-sound system as well.

The car is certainly attracts comment......

TSS offered an upgrade service to any EA-EB falcon, not all TSS falcons came with the superchager or the kit, let alone the JJD twin tire system..

Its possible that it's a TSS built car from way back...

[TIKFD6]

The TSS kit was way ahead of its time.
It came out in about 1990.
I very nearly got one of those kits for my EA back in 1993.
I have a couple of articles on it Nik.

That Purple car looks awsome.
Queensland car aswell.

[gngtho]

i think the int is the best thing out of the everything. that and the front bar.

I know you've only posted it up for the bodykit, but yuk that thing is disgusting! It's been on ebay for about a year and a half now repeatedly. I wonder how much they've been spending on listing fees?!
To even think it's worth 3k is offensive.

liz.

private9 bought some one elses ride so although its his he cant take credit for making it..............

[Nikked]

Purple flash has had more money spent on it then most of the members rides on this site. It was built for the owner, not for everyone else, kudos, that what modding is about. Truth is, it more unique then the typical EA-EDs with EF doortrims and painted dashboards.

Spot on...

: The pics (and other pics we have of it in our club album etc) do not do this car justice.

We were at a car show recently and Liz didn't make it but her car was still on show through the photos in that album, heaps of people commented on it and asked where it was cos they wanted an up close and personal look.

I'm proud to have both the car and owner in our club

[ROOSTA]

I personally have found a soft spot for the TSS kits of late and i must say that LIz's Car looks like an example of a great looking E-series which has its own flair and style..

Well done Liz..

I did not intend this thread to become what it has.. I just wish people weren't always so close minded and could appreciate an individual car for wat it is.. Yes it might not be your personal style or the way you would mod your own car but atleast open your mind enough to see that someone has gone beyond the average E series modder and created something that stands out from the crowd.. I mean seriously isn't that mostly wat modding is about??

Or maybe we should all just drive the same cars that all look the same.. Where's the fun in that???

Cheers,
Nik

[gngtho]

It falls under the catergory of a STREET MACHINE it's moded to express the fealings of the owner, and why not everyone has oppinions but all in all its whats the owner want's credit to LIZ its a great example of expression and even though theese pics don't do it justice im sure the car is much more attractive in the flesh..

And thats my two cents.

[rob_liss_lms10]

I saw this car on the road today, it certainly stands out! Different,nice and has that second look appeal. Reminds me of the sierra cosworth kit, which imo is an awsome car. Good work Liz.
