finally a new page!!

so now that the suspension as settled itself the car sits a little lower on the drivers side, but cant really tell tbh,
and lately the tires have been rubbing quite a bit so yesterday i took the inner plastic guard out but it was still happening today, in fact i think it was worse because it was against the metal, so in any case i decided i needed to fold the lip and pull the guard out just a bit... 

 

results are as follows

Ok so i had a couple of days off this week so was able to get a little bit done. 
jamie took me to see a mate of his and i was able to score heaps of parts that i really needed for the ute. 
got a bonnet, 4x4 guards, back window(with sliding window), bonnet latch, lights and light buckets as well as a grill. 

also managed to pull the front bar off the car so i could work on straightening the wheel-well and although it was my first time panel beating and it tool a bit longer, i think it turned out pretty good, well its getting there.

and i put one the the guards on the good side of the car and they seem to look alright but i might end up running 15's just to fill up all that space.
