Heres some photos of what I've been up to with my wags.
I converted it from lpg to petrol so it goes a bit harder and I dont have a stupid massive tank under the floor that hits on every little bump. Also got an another front bumper to replace the ugly cut one it had and got some international rims thanks to Isaac, cheers mate.
Have got a manual conversion, lsd and a fuel injected top conversion ready and waiting to go in just need some time. Also maybe in the near future a paint job and some turbos might find their way onto the car.
Ah well hope you guys like, I'm slowly trying to make it into a decent vl

Nice wagon, could be a very nice car with a tidy up. Go single turbo once your injected, you can make good power with stock bottom ends and forced induction

17-01-11, 14:10 GMT+10#17 Over the break I had a little play around with the wags, hid all the wiring behind the guards and moved the battery to the boot, also got rid of the wiper bottle and radiator overflow. Should be putting in lsd this week and a new fuel pump so it can make it down the drag strip without dying. Anyway heres some photos.
