They always come back to an E-Series! Looks good mate, just needs some TLC and some new paint in various areas!!

And Rosco T5's are quicker and better than crappy e-series auto's! :P

yeah rosco box cars have way more class and character then ef/els +1 for clapped out autos, special the crappy 3 speed in the eas and even from ea II to ed the autos where still crap, ef/el boxers where a little better, altho i thought they were the same box but my auto el was heaps better then my auto Ed

The EF/EL autos are still the same (except on EL, they removed the dipstick for some weird reason). My old 4 speed was clapped out, while my mate's NL Fairlane, the auto is just as bad as mine was.
