i got it as a birthday present for my 16th, was never really going to be a look at me kind of car, it had a really faded paint job and surface rust all over the roof and a smacked in boot.. i just wanted it to look nice haha i want to lower the front just a bit to give it a more even look.

Lower the front??

to be honest i have no clue, my dad got them done. look good though :(

Just had a wash Remember the bootlid.. now..

yeah, i knew what you meant mate, don't worry haha

never thought of painting the wheel arches black, i'll consider it, i have no clue about the rims and tires!

anodized hood hinges. bit of sparkle. need to give the engine bay a clean :wink:

well it's all together now, need to get the indicators etc to work, it's being stupid only the headlights will work? looks 10000x better than originally so i'm quite pleased with it. will take photos in the light when the car is started, it won't start at the moment, dad said fuel in the carby had most likely evaporated? hasn't been started for AGES

when it's going i'll get dad to bring it down ;) got to go get some boot rubber fitted at thomas parkers anyway!

It's been sitting in the shed for ages without being turned on, so won't start at the moment Dad is getting one of his mates to do something with all the engine mounts. most are done but he took a few more should be here today. It's like a chrome dip but it comes out a goldish kind of colour? Name keeps slipping my mind, then when we get new rubber stripping for the boot the exterior is finished.n :yes:

mmm.. raised from the dead aye :yes: forgot about this site.. although nothing has really happened between my last post and now. apart from it being painted!

Got a job. night fill at k-mart for the christmas period. :hmm: sound system coming soon :y:

yeah i guess you have a point there :)

good to hear my work is inspiring haha :) progress has been really slow lately ;) as there is much more i can do anymore, all that is left is the bootlid being fixed then it can begin being painted :lolcry:
