yeh i like it. i like the whitewall idea too. i saw a bunkyesque cream vl with mx bars whitewalls and chopped as **** springs. made my day, looked rad.

im hell considering throwing mud guards on, respraying the bumpers and choping one of the sets of stock springs i have so the mud guards are scrapeing on the ground. although i wont make it up my driveway lol

make sure there's some metal on the mudguards so they spark at night Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

scored a rb25det clutch 2day so hopefully it will last at least a few months of punishment. aswell as a malpasi fuel reg off "the chad" Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

hey jack, watched an episode of street customs last week where they did a rat rod, to get the 'rustic' finish, they sprayed some red oxide over the paint, then resprayed the original colour over that. then in certain spots, rubbed the colour back to give the appearance of rust coming thru. looked sick.

is that the one they did for the guy that designs ed hardy ****? looked mean! but nothing beats the look of real rust.

man that sounds like way 2 much effort. and there is no rust in the car atm so im going to have 2 wait years for that genuine vl rustic look ---------- Post added 14-05-10 at 20:21 ---------- after spending a few hours prepping the block and head 2day i found out that dave gave me the wrong head gasket. So we have decided to just throw in a high comp setup now [COLOR="Silver"] Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
