filthy one Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Wow i love that man, fully sick. Stoked its a Chch car too, should see/hear in person cruzin sometime.How is bairds workmanship? Havent seen much. I work at brands hatch restorations on wilsons road. Do you know that tall dude with semi afro at bairds, cant remember his name but I know of him. Think he has a blue pearl commodore project. Anyhow, brilliant car, dad had a white one with red stripe and red interior before my time. these are a sick shape. 'rotary wagon' badge is a nice touch too. Dont worry ida wankel'd it too! Good luck for the nats, you have my vote already. hey dude cheers for the positive remarks . bairds are bloody unreal the beat a new bonnet out of sheet thats the best way to sum them up. A lot of effort went into the panle & paint thats for sure .. Yea nats will be cool I don't expect to win anything just having the wags ther will be sweet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thminiman Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 fucken mint, those wheel suit it heaps IMO to be honest though, i think it needs to be a bit higher at the back, like an inch, or maybe even half an inch would make the difference. yes, i said higher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteretep Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 very awesome, but I prefer the old wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusted Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 I prefered the minilights with the polished lip, but the new ones look good too. Absolutely amazing car there brother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest John-o Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 very nice car, lovin the paint job and the rotary badge the new rims look good, but I think the previous black colouring just suits it a bit more yep real fn nice car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toucan Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Mmmm im not completely sold on either style wheel but the black of the previous set looked pretty choice I reckon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dylan Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 i dont mind the new wheels in my mind i think the perfect wheel would be a dished 13x7 superlite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goat Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 New wheels look wicked. 9 years in a paddock! You did a good thing saving this car. Awesome result too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobumps Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 i dont mind the new wheels in my mind i think the perfect wheel would be a dished 13x7 superlite Ill 2nd that with maybe an 8inch for the rear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filthy one Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 New wheels look wicked. 9 years in a paddock! You did a good thing saving this car. Awesome result too thanks man i tried to go fo 8 inch spittys but could'nt get em in 5 stud so gave up . But the 17's take it of the clock in 3rd gear { hmmm or that could be cos the engine goes round n round instead of the old factory up n down} Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidian Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 very mint car bro. pristine as! nice work not a big fan of the ricy exhaust but thats just me also prefer the old rims (kinda gives it the variant look ) but new ones are sick too even tho people use them quite alot, suits it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyteler Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 I actually prefer the new rims to the RS-Watanabe's you had on there. I would make the stripe a pearled white, inversed pearl'd harlequin'd lotus cortina colours! w00t! Not a massive fan of the zorst either and would either bring the rear end up to match the level of the front or vice versa. If you're going to rake it, oldschool bogan front rake would be the go, jack the rear up a foot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raizer Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 I'm probably wrong, but it seems to me its not raked it just looks it cause the front guards are cut higher than the rears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
