Faults:

I bought this car cheap for a winter beater. However, I was really surprised how much I began to like it. Its had a few problems:

-Needed new exhaust pipe, front struts, needs front coil springs, transmission crossmember, sounds like the back brakes are ready for a tune-up. Not bad for a $200 car.

General Comments:

A well designed car in my opinion. The bench seats are a little firm but theres plenty of room. The car rides very smooth, it is rough over bumps due to the 25 year old suspension, but this will be fixed soon.

My only problem with this car is the stock engine. The inline six was only rated at 80hp or so out of the factory, and mine is probably putting out less due to wear. Its not a big car, but it is pretty underpowered. Doesn't do so well on steep hills, and passing on the highway is a little risky.

The car is in need of some work, so I plan to just go ahead and put in a 302 or 351 for a fun project.

Faults:

There have been no problems at all with my Fairmont. It's reliable, strong and can/will beat any Holden any day. The inside of the is in top shape, hardly a scratch.

General Comments:

The car is very cheap to run because I have converted it to gas (LPG). I have also made some alterations and put on a muffler system that makes the car purr like a kitten. This car will be able to beat any holden any time. Holden's are constructed poorly. The car is very easy to maintain, tires last a while (depands if you do burn outs or not). overall this Fairmont 93 is great.
