I thought that is was about time i maybe put a build thread up because i started to make this a bit of a build now

I got this off Members brother in a rather sick and sorry state .
Blown head gasket suspension was stuffed
brakes past state of metal to metal
From here i decided id put a head n it and that would be done .

THis is how the car looked when i first got it .
the bar was starting to peal and had been crashed in the front



I started by putting a airbox that i had developed with miss aly and bri bri for e series .





Then i put my roh 18s of the xf on it to get it going to replace the stockies .

And put a stock stereo from my work at time

Other than that all i added was some venetians sides and back

I decided to take it out for a skid pan day and have a bit of fun .








After about two years i had so many issues with the old original motor that i decided that i would put the
Full xr6 running gear in the car
At the same time i found a el xr6 front bar so decided to put it on . wrong paint colour and all
We then had Lowered 3 inch block in rear taken out and springs reset

And was thinking this


I then started to build the stereo up in this











New carpet


Sound deaden the roof






Boot all finished and doors all done







We then decided to put a new diff after the old one had issues 327 gears up from the 3.08
We then took it to the drags.
Think it ran a 16 on standard xr running gear



Inbetween time Pete from Phat Gaurd rolling did the gaurds for me so i could fit some new 20s on it
XHp starcorps



It then become manual and was ready for sandown








Boot up at Sandown because i was told to


Straight after this my engine decided to have timing case noise so i pulled the motor


Straight after that was cruise for charity
It was on display with new engine


We didn’t finish it in time so the next few weekends were busy
