The plan
In 2 months i will get my motor rebuild and start preparing the body for the full bare metal respray, smooth engine bay relocate battrie to boot etc, and getting the underneath sand blasted then paint some color as car ( candy orange and a suprise) and finish off all the custom work
Then about a month later get a custom retrim, i also got sv5000 seats to go in it, and a full bare metal respray, and then a zorst
a few weeks later full nolathane front and rear end, and shocks and if i got some spair cash some hsv disc brakes for front and rear then engineers report then rego
it is goin to be ready for the summernats i cant wait, i will post up some sneak pics of the respray and retrim in about 3 months
the pics of the wheels are the 18" wheels i will haev for the summernats ( they are dads wheels from his vnss they are on mums vt atm) after the nast im goin to buy a set of 18's

thanks every one for the great feedback ( keep all feedback commin) yer i cant wait till it is finished, been a long 12 months and probably a nother 6 months 2 go
when i brought the car a week b4 i was 16 i was goin 2 respray it red and slam it on stockies but then i was goin 2 buy my old man vn ss when he was sellin it, so i didnt do anytin with the vl for about 5-6 months its only sice i got a job and the summernats that i have decided to go all the way daily driver show car, when the car is done it is goin 2 turn some head, im not goin 2 ive away any of the custom work or secrets for a few months but deffenly goin 2 be at the nats
Bluey_Rae, thanks mate,
btw it should sit lower in the rear because i only got about $15 of fuel in it atm, so when i got a full tank of fuel, subs amps etc and ppl in the back should be pretty low, it doesnt look 2 low but when i was bolting the wheels on i couldnt get the jack under the front so i had just enoguh room at the rear 2 jack it up and put it on a stand so i could jack the front up
hmm... the only thing i dont like about the 18's is the way they show the rear drums.... disks look much better
change the brakes, and paint the callipers red... will look awesome.. i did it to mine and it looks saweeet sittin on 16's coz i got VT SS front brakes and they fill the inside of the rim
but i still love the 18's
lol
