Grandpa spec life

A fair bit has happened to my car since I last posted on here. Wheels are black. Front and Rear trolley strips are off. Put my visor on. Ran up the ass of a Patrol. Flappers are starting to self destruct

I had very similar problems with my VR. Occasionally it would just lose power while driving, wouldn't rev above 1500 and felt like someone was lightly tapping the throttle. Turned the car off and started again and it would come good. It had this problem for a fairly long time until it got...

Replaced the radiator today, had the tiniest split in the plastic side tank and has been leaking ever so slowly. Picked up a new one for $80. Went in fine but now the upper hose is leaking where it meets the radiator, ran in it for a bit to heat up the rubber so it conforms better, new leak has...

New tyres, flappers, dress rings and bullet nuts. Also rocking gold steelies now too. Thinking of going lower too...

I went halves on a set of venetians with a mate at work. He wanted the quarter window ones and I wanted the back ones so it was win/win, $175 each. They were rough when I got them, had been black originally and painted white very poorly. So I straightened them, gave them a quick sand and coat of...

Not good. The rears have lasted longer than the fronts but still show some cracks/flaking. The fronts are really bad though, massive amounts of flaking from excessive strain when turning. I've kept touching it up with just paint on a brush. Looks good from a few metres any closer and it looks...

Is this the new Ronald McDonald edition? Dat red smiley face

To my understanding, yes. No lower than 100mm fully ladden (as in a full tank of fuel) at the lowest point (most likely your exhaust I'd assume) If it's too low or you just don't feel confident enough throw in your stock springs to pass a RWC and then swap the lowered springs in afterwards. You...

Painted my steelies. Now looking for venetians and a sun visor, preferably second hand and cheap :)

Mad props dude, something different and you've pulled it off well. Painted my steelies a nice bronze/copper colour

Brand spankin' work box. Pretty much entirely Sidchrome minus some specialty items.

Being a cocky, teenager I thought I'd try and tint my side windows by myself... Might just get it done properly next time. Derp Although just like the whole car it does look okay from a distance.

Gnarly bagged Benz at Downshift on Sunday

Update on the whitewalls; no good. The fronts have flaked way too much, can't handle the extra flex when cornering. I'm going to look into different paints still and try and find the krylon brand. I'm not doing this because I'm poor, mainly because I'm curious. These tyres have almost no legal...

Well... that escalated quickly

I'm preparing a tutorial but I want to see how well they last first. These ones are using Duplicolour Vinyl Spray, I've read the rat/hot rodders use Krylon Fusion for plastic, however being an American brand I haven't found any as of yet. They haven't cracked, apart from one front wheel which I...

Rear spring insulators out, dropped the arse some more. Hasn't compromised drivability at all that I've noticed. Yes I realise this is probably the second most bogan thing to do besides cutting coils. Black stockos and painted whitewalls. I'm trying different kinds of paint to see what fairs...

So working 12 hour days for 6 days a week does have it's up sides. Now I can actually start spending a fair portion of money on my car. First thing to do was obviously get it slammed. I bought a set of King's ultra lows off of ebay, only the rears have been modified to be even lower, allowing...

stg3 front springs (equivalent to ultra lows) stg4 rear springs (even lower) ;)

This has come up a treat. I love the paint scheme and the gold really sets it off! I might have to have a go myself one day. Did I read that you're going to sell the car? Honestly you've come so far it's too nice to sell, continue on with the way it's heading. I like the whole idea of painting...
