So I've been told to start a thread on my ute so here it is.
Owned it a week today.
253/Trimatic combo
GTS Dash etc
Painted in Ford Citric Acid or a variant of.
Wheels are 18" Chev Rallyes. They're brand new and came with the car, will be for sale soon and hopefully be replaced by some draglites.

The wheels would look awesome as a 15" but as an 18 theres not enough tyre and its to far in the air. On a chev 57 or something similar with a big body you can drop over them it they would look sweet, but yeah. So 15" draglites pretty much going for this sort setup wheels and height wise, maybe even a touch lower in the rear, this is a mates ute. No interior pics at this point. Just buckets with a GTS dash which has seen better days.

Cheers Viln, sick of seeing photos of it yet? :p

Great to see some more pics! IMO, the draglites will MAKE the car, I reckon the smaller wheels might make it look a little lower too. It's a ute after all, you probably don't want to lower it too much if you're ever gonna put anything in the back :p
