64minx Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 This is my 1964 Hillman, Will keep updating as I get things done to it, wheels and lowering are first on the list. http://www.oldschool.co.nz/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=36084 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borgweiser Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Pretty sure I had dibs on this, remember this car from the Hillman club, pretty sure the guy who owned it was into conspiracy theories and running cars on water etc :/ Don't go too low, I done it before on a Super Minx and it was awful and chewed up now stupidly hard to find suspension bits, jus sayin..

64minx Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 How long ago was that? The couple I brought it off were really nice and had owned it for 17 years. Gave me three folders of paper work with nearly all the wof sheets, all the work they had done to it. Even the original ownership/registration form. They put a scepter 1725 motor and box in it. It was the ladys car and she said she drove it nearly everyday. Yea I dont wana go to low but once I get the new rims and tires ill see how it looks.Might jusr need to lower the front abit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaMpylobacter Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 shit son this is going in a good direction. drop a few inches out of the ride height and it'll look so amazingly sweet, not that it doesn't already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
64minx Posted September 22, 2012 Author Share Posted September 22, 2012 Yea I love it. Hopefully going to sort out the lowering this week sometime if I get a day off work.
