Hey guys,
Well after 12 1/2 hours of working around the Toowoomba swapmeet yesterday (and wasn't it just awesome!!!) I have a few more bits and pieces to add to my Lion-on-wheels.
I found some VT SS 17" mags. I picked these up for $490 with nuts. 3 tyres are great and one is a little on the low side. I am extremely happy with this find.
I also managed to score a used K & N panel filter for $15. its a little dirty but as we all know they are washable. An electric aerial which I've seen for over $100 in shops was picked up for $40 and the same guy has offered me a set of 4 white Acclaim doors complete with tinted windows, power windows (which is what I'm after) as well as the centre console with switches for $200. Found a Fusion 1000w amp also. This is a $40 find - and yes it works.
All in all a day well spent I reckon.

Heres a bit of an update:
Yesterday my doors and centre console were delivered so I am now in the process of installing power windows. Hopefully it all turns out well.

It's time for an update I think. I have now got all four power windows in and working and what a b*stard of a job that was. I still have to paint the console though. The best news at the moment is that yeaterday I managed to pick up genuine Holden S-pac side skirts and rear bar side skirts for $60 and genuine fog light bezels for $20 (and thats not each either, that for the pair). They are in perfect condition with the exception of scratched paint. I am still deciding whether I will put the bezels in. Having said that I may be willing to trade the bezels which have excellent condition red paint for other pieces of the SS/S kit.

Well it has been ages since my last post and a lot has happened since then so I will try and catch up to where I am now. Not long after fitting the head unit I purchased some fusion 6.5" component speakers from the local Repco. I then picked up some 180w Kenwood rears from WOW. I'll put up some pics when I can get them off the old computer. Haha yes it was a while ago :rofl2:
