Had an absolutely wicked time at PCM! It was the 1st real drive of the wagon and it was great to put the boot in and get amongst it! The poor old diff didnt like the abuse, 1st lap, 1st cruise on friday - snaped an axle. Replaced and done powerskid and the last cruise for the day Saturday...

Haha! We did look into a bagged trailer mate but just wanted to keep it simple and we built this whole thing for 2.5k I plan on bagging the wagon too by the way, last priority though - more of a want then need!

Hahah! yeah buddy, amended the exhaust, that was literally made hours before loading the car on the trailer at 1am Monday morning to make it there Monday 7am, rookie mistake - was made on a hoist and soon as we went to load the car on the trailer it caught on the muffler, had to take the pipes...

Had a bit of a play around on photo shop the other night, pretty much got a good idea of the finished product! [/URL]

So i mucked around with the rear end a little, removed the diff and all association parts and gave the undercarriage a really good clean with truck wash and high pressure clean, then give it a few coats of chassic black. I will do the front half next spare day i get. Just need to tidy up the...

Cheers Sandman, I was sitting at a set of traffic lights one day and a Mazda6 or something like that went by and the colour popped, it was that instant I knew which colour I was going to go with!

Here is my VL wagon, purchased the car for $400. Started life as an RB30 5 speed manual. Plan was to convert to an ls1 engine which I already had along with a powerglide. The project originally was meant to be a low cost budget build skid pig. I bought a home made 'kit' off a bloke for $800...
