I really like that profile shot a lot! The wagons look fantastic from side on.

Guys,
Can't decide which way to go. All black or keep the Chrome bar?

I left mine chrome for now, i have seen the paint that makes chrome pieces look annodized (spelling?), might see what that looks like.....and KEEP THE CHEV BADGE!!!!!!!!!

hahahahahahha.... you guys crack me up..... Chev badge is gone for now. Painted my original grille badge in black. Will take a couple of photos when the rain stops. Removed the badge at the back after seeing some of the other wagons...looks much cleaner. Also replaced the SSV badge with the new one that has the red V because it suits really well with my interior. When I get bored again, I will swap the grille to the chev! :beer chug:

Tinny,
What are your thoughts on my suspension question?

Sorry mate, missed that one. As far as I'm aware, sedans and wagons DON'T have the same springs. I mean they'll fit, but the wagon should be running on the ute springs. That's certainly the case if you go off pedders part numbers.

http://www.pedders.com.au/PS_images/assets/Technical/PeddersVEpartscatalogue-V1.pdf relevant info is on page 3.

mmm ok.. I will double check because they told me that all of them were the same... I may have gotten it wrong but will certainly clarify. Thanks Tinny.

Yeah, I'm not sure if its the same for all spring makes - H&R may only have the one spring for the VEs - but it reads to me like pedders have separate part numbers for ute/wagon and sedan - I'd be guessing the ute/wagon rears are a higher spring rate.

I'd be guessing the ute/wagon rears are a higher spring rate.

You would assume so because the wagon is heavier and the ute is supposed to carry a heavy load!
