no job hey!!,, when i was 18 i had no job, i bought a vk for $100 it had crows feet all through the paint!! i took every single panal back to bare metal. 1 panel per day and once the panal was completly bare i used pressure pack primer cans to keep the panels primed,,, until i was ready to completely rub it all down and prime again,, long story short is having no job is good as you have more time the those that work but also no job means waitin for that fortnightly cheque to get some gear lol... i'm in the opposite boat now mate i have the money for all the gear but i don't have any time to actually do any of it lol i love vk's and i'm so happy i've just got another one :)

I'm a bit of both.... only work weekends, earn good cash, and do stuff all during the week.:thumbsup:

As good as it is, I can't live at home forever......but I think me and my bro will prolly buy the house off my Mum anyways so we prolly won't move lol.

Also on the drives side wheel arch.. why is there a dent in there, i dont see a point in it, just curious to if anyone knows what its for?

Pretty sure the dent is for clearance to allow fitment of other motor's for overseas models

see below
