Hi FordXD,
welcome to the forum and a LP-1S is a great kit to build.
Start a build diary and ask lots of questions, heaps of help on here
I had a XD Falcon and sadly had a dashboard bbq because of a badly wired stereo haha best thing to do to a Ford hahaha

Welcome XD.

I had an XE, changing the front pads one Saturday arvo I made the mistake of opening the drivers door to change the radio for the footy, the door was nearly 75mm out of alignment such was the flexibility of the chassis.

As Stan said it was like a Tardis, had no trouble putting a Marshall box plus all the rest of my gear in the boot, just my clothes and the bass on the back seat ( our drummer may or may not have had a Wellington boot in the boot of his XE )

haha nice one Pest I'll have to agree with you.
FordXD I was a fan of Dick Johnson and he should have won the 1980 Bathurst race in his Tru Blu XD if some loser didn't throw the huge rock on the track

nah man

haven't had one for years now, was the worst thing i ever did, getting rid of that car.
one owner who was 83 when i bought it off him, had less than 200 000 on the clock. missus upgraded and i had to sell.

shame.
