The colour is Everglade Green. A very common colour in the early 90's on the EB and ED falcon's. Not so common anymore

Hey mr mk2 that colour of your mk2 is tops! I got rid of the aircon setup. I figured the amount of times i had to tighten bolts it would just be anather issue.I remember pulling up at a supermarket and seeing a large bolt on the road thinking someone is going to wonder where that bolt went and when i got home relized my altanatar is about to fall off[88]

A lot has happened since than i last had it on the road. I have sold the pinto and bought a blacktop zetec and will put a wrx snail on it and use de-comp plate. Wish i had time like i used too [B)]

The worse thing I ever done was remove the twins webers! Holleys suck! A good tune would have wise by a machanic but easyer just to put a weber back on. Wouldn't idle properly, flats spot, hard to start when cold..
