And also like I was told when I was building myn up the only thing I would change is your thermo fan !!! I'd be lookong at either making shroud from aluminium for your 16 inch fan or getting twin 12 inch and making custom shroud from aluminum or goin something like the au twin fans !!!
I'm using the au fans at moment and they keep it cool, but I'm making custom one out of aluminium with 2 / 12 inch fans to gain room for blower brace as the au fans take up a fer bit of room with how thick the set up is !!!
Apart from that I think u have started from the perfect platform with the senator and I love what u have done to it !!!

Thanks all, well I do tend to post a lot but I got my stainless lines all sorted and fitted tonight and I am stoked at how they came up. The stainless hard lines I made up came up a treat. That's pretty much the rear suspension completely finished, which is a milestone for me :) Just some shots, and then a couple of random ones of it up on the hoist for posterity.

Great to see a tasteful, well thought out quality build. They don't come along very often but when they do they are that much more appreciated. Congratulations

Surely this would have to be the most epic senator in Aus.

Glad to see you ended up deciding to make a thread :)

Have you considered trying to get a VT/VX HSV Steering Wheel?
