Yeh im gonna play around with lowering it tomorro. Gonna see what happens when i take out the 2 middle leaves from the back (so its just main leaf and load leaf). Then remove the front bushes. Might be low enough. Got some 13" steelies on the way that i have chrome rings and Sunny centres for. They'll be red. Still trying to justify $100+ for fake white wall inserts. Then ill put 155/65R13 on the front and 185/60R13 on the rear.

Just been playing around in paintshop and i think i have a design all planned out. Ill see how much time I have after 4WDing tomorro to paint it.

Its actually alot rougher then the pics let on

Bit of progres today!

I got the A10 running and the car stopping and driving! Something still isnt right with the brakes but they dont hold on anymore. Also pulled the bumpers and grill off, renewed a window reg and assesed the rust and dents! Then it got too hot.

My neighbor came over and offered me a ecotec V6 for free that just needs re-ringing... I think ill pass tho. If i do a engine swap ill use something cool like a VH45DE or something

If you do the satin black correctly it looks good. But if you attack it with 1/2 dozen rattle cans on a sunday arvo without any prep it will look ####house!

sounds good but cars that are painted matte black look like they've been raped, better off with a matte red but that's just my opinion. shag pile carpet might make it look tacky but each to their own. it'll be interesting to see the end product.
