It's only an S which is what I want as I don't plan for it to be standard and couldn't bring myself to ruin an original one. Plus couldn't afford it lol.
It is currently on its way to its new home as we speak.
Plan is to build a reasonably quick street driven car. Not sure but I would like to do a GTR or XU1 tribute but not with a six. See what happens.
It has no engine or box. I have several ideas but not sure which way to go yet.
Has a half cage and mini tubs just to the rails. Once home I will need to do a rough list of what is missing and start shopping. Then when I start the build find everything else that's missing.

I know it's a loooooong way from rego but I reckon you should fit the IMORAL plates to the LJ & then buy my SS HATCH plates for your ss hatch.
My hatch went interstate & the plates wouldn't suit my sedan
You know it makes sense

Hahah. There was a white hatch at Yamanto the other night with SS HATCH plates. Or was is just HATCH?
Already have a plate in mind for this one.
I have up years ago putting car related plates on them because I kept selling the car and then have to get a different plate. Have mine and the wife's initials now with a number then the same with the number first. Only problem is the plates now have several different holes in them from doing the rounds.
Pm me how much your chasing anyway. You never know.

But I just can't trowel it up. The replacement panels are the cheapest thing.

So where else does it need money tipped into it, and what else needs doing, besides a bit of rust?
I have worked out the panel and paint is the cheapest thing. The rust isn't too bad.
Interior including wheel dash and crash pad. And the running gear. I do realise I can get it on the road cheaper than what I worked out but I can't help my self when it comes too the engine. Rainy weather is doing my head in I think....
I think I will just bake my time and slowly acquire the bits and pieces over time. It just depends as I have a big brother to look at. The outcome of that will help decide the future of this. Or I win lotto tonight and its happy days
