as you can see from the engine shot i towed it here... also have some EL XR rims for it...

wont be happening for a while as my AU has just put me a fair way into the -$

a good cut and polish should bring her up. you should be able to get a cheap au donk or if it were mine id be looking for an ef el tickford motor and box. cut the springs in half so it lays on its guts.

If you just want it to last a little bit longer, clean the outside, chuck some better rims on (not necessarily aftermarket) and as you said, AU engine because they'll be the bomb diggedy. May trip computer :D.

phong =P~

EFII Gli Interior
EF mirrors and door handles (green atm lol)
