  1. Got top colour on today looks so much better lovesatin mettalic got a sweet flip to it looks silver in photos but with a bit of sun goes champaign also sprayed some bright red hamerrite on just need to paint black lip and get tyres put on Schweeat
  2. For ewes who dont know what im doing something along the lines of this etc..
  3. So fuck all updates but i have been doing shit, finaly got it all panelled to my standards which is good enough, removed rust and unwanted holes, managed to get cuply coats of primer on on the 24th, then hit it today and sanded down and got the botom top coat on, although run out of paint so only got a cuple coats on but considering im using a cheap primmer gun with a mettalic the results arnt to bad at all, Next on list will be some mega slammage as low as i can get it without forking out big bucks, then the second colour top coat. Also all wheels have been flipped and waiting for tyres to turn up so all going well should be good to go for new years, the colour changes quite a bit with different light.
  4. You know your oldschool when you consider painting your car with a roller!!

  8. Bullshit update have replaced cambelt, waterpump idler bearings etc.. working on wiring messing with my head, also need to sus starter motor getting alternater mounted up fuel pump and other little bits and peices,
  9. More lowerage please. Doesnt look like youll be able to widen your steelies your offset is all wrong, maybe get a bit in back. Your looking at bowt $60 a rim to get your centres cut out and welded into a new centreless rim or back into your old rim just flipped + additional cost of the centreless rim if you go that way i think they are about 80 - 100 per rim? + new tyres if your going wider. it all adds up My two cents would be leave front rims, flip centre in back gives you dish without the cost then you can use same tyres powdercoat/paint colour of choice. and lower car more. + set of whitewals ftw. These are my wheels with the centre flipped just dont forget to get old valve hole welded up and new one drilled
  10. Not to much going on on this front just toying with some ideas using it as tow vehicle/moving house stylz. Jus been gathering things for it Got sum wheels got centre flipped may paint this weekend

Anyway on the good news side of it after the trailor drama, car getting all sorted talkd to my new engineer today redoing gearbox cross member so exhaust can go over and not get crushed, re-doing the collector that hits the ground, re-routing the brake lines and fuel lines, cutting a section out of the body/chassis welding in new plates for exhaust and driveshaft, and doing the tunnel all the linkages, plus a bit more cosmetic stuff if bank ballance allows.
