that looks sweet as. Looks like the rear end is the wagon choped down. Might be seeing things but there looks like as if there is some vy/vz ute in it - the tail gate and the top parts of the panels above the tail lights. Still looks the goods though.

They've certainly done a good job of it. It's a shame Ford didn't build a real e-series ute.

36 grand for a "bitsa" !!
Not for me thanks. And GT badge on a 6 cylinder ute, C'mon ! I can however appreciate that alot of work would have gone into it. Just not my 'cup of tea'. |

Ditch the GT badges and put XR6 ones on there. With the turbo badge from an XR6T. And the turbo from an XR6T. And a 6 speed. And buy the 6 speed conversion kit from me. And ditch the rear spoiler.
FCUCK that is a hot ute. *EDIT - haha. The swear filter here is wacked! |

Great looking ute.
If you read into it, it says its a XH ute base, not a wagon chop, and like Polyal said, you can see similarites in a XH rear end.

Im pretty sure they were all just chopped wagons. Doesnt look like too many XH parts on it. The quarter? windows look like there from the back door and maybe the rear glass is XH or custom?
Id much rather that than a BA or BF ute. Id just take the GT badges off. |

it started out as an EA....thats clearly visible by the windscreen cowling.... they've obviously done the EF interior conversion like i said earlier it looks a LOT like a hillier conversions one.. http://www.trueblueford.com/EL_utes.html |

that doesnt deserve the GT badge its not a V8.
it look great and the EF interior is much better than the EA interior. still disapointing to see a i6 instead of a V8 on a car with GT badges. |
