Yeah pimp car steve, this thing looks gorgous in the flesh the sun beems into it Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

i just love the colour/calais combo. its understated and classy... perfect on a calais. looks great on the calais rims... et street radials to suit? 8inch? bigger? could be such a great sleeper.

il bring the video camera next time you want to make a little home movie, i know the camera phone just isnt up to the high cinematic standards you prefer

Actually we did put a silver rear bumper on and I didnt like it Thanks again all for the comments! I have been stuck for a while thinking of what wheels to put on, but yeah the polished Calais rims do look pretty sweet and classic. Could possibly end up with street slicks on them one day Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Wow, heres an actual progress update from me!! Even this stage has been a long time coming Motor had been sitting around for a few months with 3 snapped exhaust manifold studs. Finally decided to remove them - had to take off the manifold of course. Cleaned up the mating surfaces with a bit of light emery paper New studs with a bit of anti seize and new Nissan gasket lol and thats it Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
