The last photos I posted were not that great and were of the car when it had the original rims/hubcaps on it. These pics came out better and have the run around mags on them. They are 17x7, I mention that as there seemed to be a few people asking about 17"mags on LH/LX's on the forums recently.

The car is in standard condition(besides the mags). The only real changes from when it left the factory is a Holley carb, an electric fan, central locking and a new radio. It goes real well and is a blast when i take it out for a drive. Although with petrol now up to $1.75 those drives are becoming fewer.

wrong headlights


Yep I realise they are the wrong headlights kermi. I have the original ones at home but i don't use them as they don't fit that well. The plug and parklight on the end of the wiring loom doesn't fit the square headlights so my parklights don't really work.

Would have to agree that it is one sweet looking car. IMHO all of the changes you have made are tasteful and improvements. There is plenty of inspiration for all to see.

Did you manage to grab a quick cuppa at the cafe after the photo shoot. Have heard the new Mega Mitre 10 store is awesome! :D

Very clean mate. What's the black device hanging off the end of the heater?

Thanks guys for the comments.

Heath....That black device is bolted to the inner guard. It is a siren for the alarm. I might shift it though as I reckon of someone tried to steal the car all they would have to do would be pop the bonnet and rip the wires from it. That or have the bonnet open from a remote location....

I don't know that I can get it any lower. Those 17's ride pretty close to the guards as it is.
