Hey ct peeps its been awhile since I last posted any updates of my car so I thought id make a new thread since a lot has changed So basically what it looked like before I stripped it Then before it got stripped me and a mate from work drew decided to do hidden wiring What it looked like finished with the v6 in it everything got hidden besides engine loom as im going to put a ls2 in it so no point of hiding engine loom as its going to get modified Then finally got it home drove it 3-4 times then stripped it for paint and for the bay to get smoothed This pic is when it came back from getting the body repaired and hi filled Then I thought id clean up underneath, so I acid washed the undercarriage until it was clean, rubbed it down lightly and sprayed stone guard underneath through a gun I also thought id get all under body parts painted but later on I changed colour Then it was time to take it down to my mate adam from sv body works to weld the bay and weld a 4 point cage in So at the time the bay and cage were getting done I thought id hunt down some goodies also big thanks to rod at western metal polishing in sunshine Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

And then I finally I found the wheels I wanted Simmons FR 19s which I bought of huss IDARYA, so I stripped them down and painted them white So finally after the bay and cage were finished it was time to get it ready for paint The rubbing down process Painted the cage gloss black instead of leaving it bare metal even though its getting trimmed In the booth about to get painted Finally painted by steve from sv body works Also got all the moulds, plastics painted as well nothing was missed Then after a week of frustration it was all back together, everything was replaced with new stainless screws though out, new chrome bolts, rubbers ect Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Also got new brake lines made up and bought a master cylinder cap and brake booster check valve of lowe fabrications On the tow truck coming back home So when I got it back home I decided to strip the front end and paint everything silver instead of black and got around to putting the gauges back on with the mini warning lights and yes that is a vl manual rack im using This is the trim that will be getting re-trimmed in time by kon creative, the back seats will be modified into a two seater I had change of plans with the car and after enough convincing I sold the FRs and stripped the boot to get the car tubbed These are most recent pics taken a couple of days ago of my car going to Full Flight Engineering. It will be getting mini tubs, 4 link, coilovers, built borg warner with 31 spline axels and full spool and custom ceptors made up and then eventually new simmons fr 20s with 7" dish on the rear Thanks to rabih from boss towing for the tow to full flight That's all for now, there's probably heaps ive missed but feel free to ask, also motor plans are set back until the tubs and trim are done but im heading towards ls2 stroked enjoy the pics for now, feel free to comment Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
