What are your plans? Are you looking for inspiration?
I haven't really been doing too much the cars in the last year. I say that it is because I haven't had the time but if I being honest with myself, it is more that I can't be bothered finding the time to work on them.
Having said that, here are a couple of things I would like to get done;
FORTE WAGON- Finish the sound deadening
- Have the diff re-built
- New exhaust system
XR6 UTE- Re-fresh the interior (new 2nd hand carpet and 'hybrid' ghia door cards)
- Radiator (I should get onto this one ASAP)
- Fix the AC
XR8- Re-attach the door card spears in a way that they never come off again.
- Fix the AC
If I was to win lotto jobs;
FORTE WAGON- Closed door respray
- Have the suspension upgraded to RTV suspension
XR6 UTE- Closed door respray
- Re-furbish the wheels
- Up-grade to superpro bushes
- Have the momo steering wheel re-covered
- Buy a momo gear knob
NOTE: This car, being my favourite out of the three would become a weekender/garage queen and I would buy a cab chassis AU to be the workhorse.
XR8- Respray
- Re-furbish the wheels
- Buy some more performance based tyres
- Upgrade the rear brakes to Territory spec
- Upgrade the brake rotors to T3
- Re-do the seats in a better quality leather
- Re-trim the momo steering wheel and gear knob
