cool. im getting very interested in getting a wagon also.. good for beach trips,etc.
definetely stato seats..mmm...comfy.
Got plans for it besides it being a daily?
Has it just that sv5000 front bumper, u guna get the skirts/rear bar to match?
nah just gonna leave it as is, maybe respray one day and freshen up etc. (but the power bug could bite hehe, it usually does)
the bar is a bit broken so may get it fixed or replace with stock bar for a while, will see what happens. going in for roady on monday, gotta fix the drivers seat (frame that bolts to rails has snapped needs welding).
thanks for comments guys i really love it, and am going to enjoy using it everyday for even the most mundane of journeys
Love the wagon, show us with your 18s!
I find if a website is blocked you can use the tinyurl service, here's your link made with tinyurl: Index of /chrisvn
Update: Nearly roadie, today i got 2 new front shocks, 2 new rear tyres (hehe), and new front discs and pads with wheel alignment. ($825 so far)
To do: Clip drivers door trim on properly, clamp down battery, fix drivers seat (snapped rail), replace mufflers. Then its gonna be passed w00t
by any chance has the wagon been around rosebud to dromana area look like the one i saw the otherday
project vs wagon...5speed
vs wagon acclaim
not since i owned her, it was a bloke in bendigo's car.
The poor vl's got stockies on it lol all ready for retirement. Its been super reliable last 2 years so im gonna miss her. but the vn drives like its 10 years newer so i know which i prefer hehe
to answer your question, there definately vq statesman seats, in vgc too!
by the way nice pickup, how much and how many km's?
got it for $1850 had 1 week reg left so i did as much as i could in that time,
237,xxx km's. going wreckers today for any old drivers seat for rwc lol.
one of the mufflers has a crack and other the baffle fell out, so to the exhaust joint on mondayeven if i spend a total of $3500 on car and rwc stuff still a bargain imho.
Gonna degrease whole engine bay tomorrow, which would be the most important parts that need to stay dry? (will break out the shopping bags and cable tie's w00t)
main electrical stuff dissy, ignition module, coil, fuse box and battery. You dont really have to do this but better to be safe than sorry
