my fiance doesnt want to part with his spare set of rims. i don't know why? he's cruel if u ask me :-) considering its gonna be frikn hard to find a half decent set . I'm gonna wait til the car is painted then work out what rims to put on then. whether they will be a newish look or old skool, not sure.

 

car is all sweet now (fingers crossed) cos what i just spent on it has made me broke :-( although saying that i think i may have a brake problem. if i brake late or too hard the car pulls to one side (feels like brakes working on only one side) but if i brake gently its ok. so will have to take it off the road for a while til i can have the brakes looked at. hopefully it will be getting painted soon anyway, so it will be off the road for a couple of weeks then.

 

the heating thing is only when I'm on the expressway. it'll go up to just over half but as soon as i get to the end the car stalls (without fail, same spot everytime) thought that would have been fixed with all the tuning and stuff i had done, but no.

 

i reckon the car is heaps louder now with the exhaust fixed and tuned. everytime i see a cop i deaccelerate if i can. sounds good though.

If you're looking for some old school wheels go to the Southern Mag & Tyre Centre in lonsdale. I havn't been there in a while but they do have some nice wheels there. Oh and it sounds like one of your calipers might be siezed. Put a caliper kit through both of them and see how you go :D

yeh black trim was the practice one. looks good close up. it looks likes its always been that way, I'm really happy with it. gonna do the the rest of the trims while the cars being painted.

 

i could not get the last frikn bolt off the boot vent, so i had to get in to the boot to reach it.

yeh, i think that everyone thinks this car is going to be pink when i say pink pearl. but if it comes out right it should be a slight pink fleck in certain angles under sun light. i can't wait for it to be finished

 

yeh ended up selling both rollas on the day after posting them.
