No Leon why? I don’t buy much from SC only oil and stuff when they have 20% off.
The jacks do make life easier moving cars around.
SC have them on special this month
Thanks for the heads up
Here’s a pic of the XA at our recent Concourse day where the club was filmed for a TV show “Classic Restos”.
Im hoping the NEW YEAR will bring more time / money to spend of the long suffering Eliminator!
Nice …
Looks great Brett!
Thanks to Mike for posting this link in Eliminators for sale as I think I’ve found the sister car to mine.

0F91M537631 = 1 of 100 Hertz sunroof Eliminators in 1970
According to the Marti report mine is one of 2 with California emissions and the options on both reports are identical.
Im just wondering if the number sequencing sounds correct as mine is OF91M537652 produced Jan 14th 1970 (6 days ahead of schedule) and the one for sale is Jan 15th OF91M537631 (4 days ahead of schedule). Apart from that the dealers were Oakland and Los Angeles.
I have sent the owner Dave a msg to confirm the emissions, so it would be good to know if it is the other car and still alive being restored.
I’m really keen to get moving on my resto this year, the only thing holding me back is just a lack of $$
The Eliminator is finally in the panel shop and the doner car has been chopped up for a greater good.
Next step is removing the rusted out floor and getting to work on replacing the rear qtrs with better metal.
I’m sure you’re excited about getting the Hertz into the panel shop for the metal work. It will be a big transformation from what you started with when you get the new metal in place. I look forward to more of your updates.
Steven
Yes, Thanks Steven it is pretty exciting after nearly 4 years to be finally making some progress on the Eliminator.
This will be the biggest (and most expensive) project Ive ever done and certainly the worst body to start with.
If it wasn’t such a rare car I wouldn’t have bothered to be honest, and I wasn’t really expecting to buy a doner car either.
Anyway, I’m looking forward to seeing the replacement qtrs. and floor in it, then it might actually look half decent
Love that Falcon. I’ve seen ONE here in the states, and fell in love. Looked just like the beautiful black 1st Mad Max, black, zoomie pipes, black wwagon wheels and a tan interior. Didn’t have the supercharger poking through the hood, but who cars.
Great Falcon.
Wow, that’s a lot of work! But it’s going to look awesome when you are through
Does scare me a bit to see it like that though ~ I’m sure that is what mine looks like under the surface, if not worse! >.<
The donor metal work is ready for installation with the floor being next.
My assistant does a good job of watching me all day!
The floor replacement looks great.
Steven
Thanks Steven, the floor gives the body a lot of strength so that was the starting point.
The rear qtrs will be next, I’m looking forward to that!
Wow! Looks great!
Nice job. Looks great.
