soo jelly, lookin good mang

 

cheers dude :wink:

So its been a fair while since i have done an update on the purple beast.

 

Going away for a while soon in 2 days so i will do a proper update when i get back but for now the good news is that i have the car with rego on it, insured it with Shannons and it drives like a dream and nothing has gone wrong with it so I'm wrapped.

 

In the end i found some AE86 calipers, rotors and brackets and I'm borrowing a pair of my mates hubs at the moment so the front coilovers are now in for good :)

 

As i said also i was planning on taking it up to powercruise 34 at Sylmonds Planes with some mates wich i did to put it in the show and shine. When i got there i lined it up with the other cars and had a look at a few of the other ones and i though i had no chance against some of them. Anyway the judges judge them in which class they think suits them best, so there was street class (wich is what i thought mine would have been in), show class and competition class. So i cleaned it all up and left it there for the day to be judged. Come 3 o-clock it was time for the trophy presentations so me and my mates went over to see who got what and 4th trophy in the pronounced my name and car for 'Top 1948 to 1986 show class' :o haha. I couldnt beleive it, they put it in the show class, i ended up beating imaculate Torannas and stuff like that, still blowing out over it :laff: I ended up with a awesome trophy and 50 bucks to Supercheap Auto, over all a pretty good weekend i say :D

Cheers :) i can't go much lower, scrubs now and then in the rear and the front is already 10mm lower than the rear so if i go much more you will start to notice it

Thanks heaps guys :) :y:

Hey man! Looks amazing! So much love and effort gone into it, and it all pays off too.

 

Saw you at Symmons last weekend, I took photos of and was admiring your car on the day, without even realising this thread was here!

 

You've done an awesome job dude, any future plans still to go?

haha nice, did you see the Rollaclub sticker on the back window?

 

Yeah got a few more plans for it when i get some more dollars. Boxing out the boot shortly and carpeting and vinyling it and eventually it will have a few subbs and amps in it. Also getting the fabric insert on the seats replaced so the whole lot of the seats are vinyl with the original stitch pattern in them. Pretty much continuing on the vinyl from the backs of the seats so its all the same colour. Mabey a few years down the track i might throw a 4age in it if i get sick of the 4k but i kinda want to keep it old school so i might do a head for that, throw a mild cam in it and put a set of twin 40mm webbers on the side of it.

I love this car haha think ive read the thread about 9 times now and still counting.. :)
