Nominal Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Good work getting it certed before BH. It must be the busiest time of the year for LVVTA I reckon. According to the entry guff, the popo are going to be hard on illegal cars again, so watch out if you can adjust the height while driving. 1 Quote
f100_dreamin Posted March 16, 2017 Author Posted March 16, 2017 Cheers guys been a lot of late nights and long weekends but stoked to have it legal!, yeah I saw that in the entry pack aye, will be driving it at legal height to be fair, don't want any new stickers haha!! Quote

f100_dreamin Posted March 18, 2017 Author Posted March 18, 2017 Cheers guys, was a bloody awesome feeling driving this round on Thursday, and it's a great feeling to have something I've built get legal 3 Quote
Seedy Al Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 I actually fucking love this car. Goooood shit. Starting to accept wires on certain cars. This one fits the bill. 1 Quote
f100_dreamin Posted July 16, 2017 Author Posted July 16, 2017 Cheers @Seedy Al (to be fair if it wasn't for you checking it out for me I probably wouldn't have bought it) I absolutely love walking into the garage and seeing this thing, the wires really do set it off in person too! 1 Quote
63Ragtop Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 Yep, this thing is a badmutherfucker. That is all. 1 Quote
Shakotom Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 Yeah, looked so rad lying on the floor in your shed last night 1 Quote
piazzanoob Posted July 17, 2017 Posted July 17, 2017 If going v8 in this thing my idea would be to LS conversion it can get the kits from the U.S. plus turn key driver fuel efficient low maintenance And more power. Also don't you work with Tom at holden? so could end up with a good deal on a motor too 1 Quote
f100_dreamin Posted July 17, 2017 Author Posted July 17, 2017 Neither Tom or myself work at Holden anymore. But if we go V8 then yeah it will be an LS as I would like to loose a bit of weight over the front axle to help the airbags as they can struggle if the air tank isn't over 3/4 full. 3 Quote
LoLlife Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 Cool car bro!!!! Is that on factory bump stops when at max slam? If so how far is Chassis off ground at max slam? Quote

If so how far is Chassis off ground at max slam? @lowlife this thing eats bump stop, am on the third set already, with new bump stops the chassis sits about 20mm off the ground, when they fuck out it lays the front of the chassis on the ground On 30/05/2018 at 18:36, Dirty_Safari said: Cool thread, sweet car man. Love the '61 styling. Kudos Cheers @Dirty_Safari, yeah I love the little things on this shape aye. Like the little rear duckbill spoiler thing, saw a pillar less 4 door impala a while back and the pillar less doesn’t have it, so it’s like a bonus point for going post sedan haha 2 Quote
f100_dreamin Posted August 1, 2018 Author Posted August 1, 2018 @nzed yeah fully man, he went way over and above what we were expecting aye! Quote
Kimjon Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Yip, love the 4 doors too. I think it's because a couple mates had them 20 odd years ago and we'd road trip everywhere in them. Even back then they were flash cars...spent every cent they had making them look cool. Immaculate panel and paint, 350 motors...high 13sec quater mile times. Think that's why I ended up with the 4 door too. There were cheaper 2 doors around...but I just had to get 4 door as i find the shape more appealing. Plus "4 doors, more whores" as they say:) Question: the hoist...what thickness concrete. Any issues with that expansion cut next to the post? It's seriously my next thing I want. Quote
f100_dreamin Posted October 28, 2018 Author Posted October 28, 2018 The concrete was right on the 120mm thickness which is the minimum for the hoist, yeah the expansion cuts dictated that the hoist is slightly offset to the garage door as the posts had to be 100mm from them. 1 Quote

I'm pretty sure that my floor is only 100mm with steel reinforced concrete. Think I'm fucked here...might have to cut out a section and reinstate it, but thicker. Quote
