Why oh why do you have stockies on the back?


Apart from that it looks like a good starting point

Thanks fella's, mods are coming slowly, but atleast they are happening.

the only reason I have stockies on the back was to pass rego cause I got them cheap from the wreckers, a better option IMO than buying new tyres cause the tread on both of them was above 90%. Soon im gonna take them into work and change the tyres back to the berlina rims, and then hopefully get some new rims
I don't like the look of it, but its the only way i can drive untill i can swap the tyres over.

Recently changed the waterpump, very easy thanks to some handy threads off this forum. Seems to have hopefully fixed a small leak as the old one was pretty worn.
There still seems to be some loss of water/coolant when the engine cools down, I'll take it into work soon so i can get a good look underneath.

I am on the hunt for a new or second hand left tail light..any one who can help, would be much appreciated

 

[nathg]

Yay, got my newish tail light today, the reflector is pretty worn, but it makes it so much more appealing than what it used to look like
Also painted my stockies a nice alloy silver, and whilst yes I am expecting to get flamed by some becuase they are not original stockies, IDC..It will do untill i get some new rims, or proper chaser rims with some nice fat rubber

 

[rch-13z]

my brother painted a black chaser silver years ago..... blardy hell it was bad.... these days that rim in black, silver and rust lol

Nice looking colour mate, personally I'd go black stockies all round! Hills hoon mobile lol
