Broaders77 Member 73 Member For: 16y 6m 5d Posted 24/07/08 12:25 AM Author Share Posted 24/07/08 12:25 AM I think the first thing to do is get leather put in it. Has anyone swapped out the cloth seats in Sydney and can recommend a place? I'd love to get it resprayed as well but I'm pretty sure it won't be worth it.

It's an ex-NSW Police cruiser [insert arguments here],thoughts?for that price who cares!!!that's an excellent buy.I think the first thing to do is get leather put in it. Has anyone swapped out the cloth seats in Sydney and can recommend a place? I'd love to get it resprayed as well but I'm pretty sure it won't be worth it.Blackman & Sons2/18 Endeavour RdCaringbah, NSW 2229(02) 9526-8745An absolute cratfsman.

Any idea of a good price? The Ford dealer last week said their guy would do it for $1500 - unlikely now I've bought elsewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broaders77 Member 73 Member For: 16y 6m 5d Posted 24/07/08 03:53 AM Author Share Posted 24/07/08 03:53 AM Thanks guys - last question: is it easy to upgrade the stereo in these? I'm guessing NSW's finest didn't spring for the premium sound package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The price is somewhat unbeleiveable, but I disagree with some of the other posts as they are by far driven harder then most modded cars on here. As was mentioned about a 1 foot high gutter is not a mere 1 off.I.B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
