    Default Burger's VR wagon

    Hi all
    This is my VR wagon that is slowly getting there. I've owned her for about 5 years now and I have some big plans atm that I hope will come thru.

    When I bought the car it was pretty much stock. After a change of mags and some country drivin se was quite dirty:

    Then after my first altercation with a roo and with the help of insurance paying for half the paintwork I stuck a VZ / VX kit on to go with the 18" rims I had

    Saw this idea on the net somewhere (might even have been around on this site) about how to do a custom paint job on the inside.

    And just last Thursday morning (like bout 2:00) another roo decides that it had a death wish and did this!!!!!!

    Totally spewing, but this is what has caused the inspiration for more mods as it will be off the road for at least 6 weeks whileit gets fixed.
    So here she is just siting at home waiting her turn at the panel beaters.

    Its just too bad I gotta hack around in my little sistas 94 magna. I supose it better than havin to buy another bomb and have to sell it later.

    What is wrong with freight companies?????!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Just found out from my panel beater that he got a bumper that was stuffed because the freight company obviously doesn't understand what "Fragile" and "Handle with care" and "Top load only" mean!!!!
    Now it'll be another three weeks or so b4 I get the beast back.
    Dont really mind the little sister's magna be I want my 6 again. Much more fun!

    Yeah I think they must all love me ay.
    The only thing that I've done to the engine is put pacemakers on it.
    Sadly the end of the road is nigh for me an the wagon. I'm gonna fix a few things on it and then sell it once the front is fixed. I've just got too many other things to spend my money on so the car has to get the axe.
    It'll be up for sale in a month or two I think

    Yeah; should.

    If you'll give me like a 7k donation (not 'loan') I'd do that or convert it to a V8 an keep it.

    Thanks mate. It's a great car and it gets plenty of looks, not many from the cops tho which is funny considering the amount of noise it makes. Got a great sound but not an awsome one. Would have loved to stick and 8 in it.
