    Cheers, I have only started the project this year and am just about to put the motor in in the next few weeks. Then I am going to lower it 2" all round and put the tray back on.
    Its gonna have a VX V6 5 speed manual in it.

    Things I've done so far:

    * VX V6 engine.
    *conversion kit for V6.
    *5 speed manual (getrag) i think ? its not a T5.
    *Calais leather seats.
    * New Coys Rims - 18x8 and 20x10.
    * GTS Dash.
    *GTS flutes.
    * custom tray.
    *GTS Mirrors.
    *GTS front spoiler.
    * Also had a parcel shelf welded in.

    Still got to finish interior and put the motor in.

    Agree on the wheels, although most of the car isn't my cup of tea either, especially the fact it's a 1 tonner....Add a couple of quarter panels and a tailgate to the back and it would be a decent car
