Got her about 6 months ago as a stuffed tonner, the only thing that hasn't been changed is the paint... (yet) and the tray. Otherwise everything else major has been done.
Bought it as a tri-matic 253, and since have put a 308 and a T400 in and got rid of the bench seat and put some buckets in which makes it look heaps better. Got rid of the black stock rims and replaced them with silver ones only to find out that the 17s off my old VL fit on after getting the rears bored out a tad to clear the hub.
Looks awesome and I'm loving it. I'll keep you all updated on the progress of it. Next plans are to get it resprayed and stroke it, should be great!
Anyways enough about me crapping on, here are some pictures!
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
Painting it the colour is it now, just professionally done, the colour now is a backyard job and looks like ****. And it already has a GTS dash in it, just got a **** faceplate over it

Went up to Orange a few weeks ago and got another cab because there was too much work to be done on the first one, and it was just driving me mental lol so i went up there and picked up a dent and rust free one!
Took my vl up there to pull it back on a trailer, and on the way up, my ox decided to blow itself up and i lost 3rd and 4th.. but that was ok because i was only like 20k from orange, and i just thought id be able to cruise back home in 2nd at a lower speed.. got half way home, and first decided to die aswell.. so im coming back at 75km/h and the car was running rich as hell...
In the end, i got home, 600k's and $300 in fuel later! i got me a new cab! hahah was all worth it though, its alot less trouble, just gotta get this one sandblasted now! then save for my paint
