cletus Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 those 16s look better silver. also BVB's post reminds me of a pic in a car magazine i saw once, some jokers were transporting their mate's torana to summernats or something like that, the owner was a shortarse so they got another door, put the handle in at the bottom, and painted it so it matched #shityarns 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOHC Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Did the motor have a full set of those short plugs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKtrips Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 Sure did. LOL, I bought them, and never even bothered to check if they were right when I put them in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOHC Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 LOL, I guess its better than the other extreme, Probley why it was overheating? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKtrips Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 Maybe? But more likely that was a one off from slow speed crawling up a long hill on a narrow road following a fuckwit who couldnt drive. Electric fan fixed that good as.

Threeonthetree Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Maybe just a little bit of brown? Secret even? Otherwise I'll have to improvise If I sit in the car, will that be enough brown for you? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threeonthetree Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Are the 15" and 16" wheels with tyres approximately the same rolling diameter? I like the look of the 15s more but the 16s are a subtle change which affects the whole presence of the car, for the better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKtrips Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 16's are about an inch lower in profile. So don't fill the guards up as nicely but they do look pretty cool with a bit more dish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threeonthetree Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Looking forward to shots of the whole car on the 16s tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris.QCR Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Nah to those.centre caps after all the beans you give me about mine 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKtrips Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 LOL - the 15's look weird without them and the 16's I'm not sold on the centre caps but trying them out for a bit to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaver Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 perfectly haggard body + perfectly painted bright silver steelies and nice centre caps is an odd combo in my books. Would be interested in seeing them a darker colour,. 15 vs 16 is more dependant on what look you are after. less side wall on the 16s gives in a more modern/worked street car look. 15s are more like you havent done anything at all other than lower it and paint the wheels (visually). That said, it all looks the same when doing a b-out my 2 cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I love seeing your wagon updates. Looks great on the 16's. These were my parents wagon of choice growing up so bring back many happy memories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Value Buddy Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 What he said! (same parents and all!) Although, from my phone, I'm on team 15's for now. Only a whisker/pube in it though. Is she on the 16's for tomorrow? I'll cast my (brown) eye over them at Wagnats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKtrips Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 Yup 16's are on it now - we can muse over a can of Lion Brown. It's a lot better than black 16's though. Well I reckon so anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Value Buddy Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Yum! I've got supplies to Mexican them Lion Browns too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
