Has has a hit in the front end, Grille is damaged, front bar is a replacement and it is out of whack everywhere. Probably could be cleaned up though  300k's on the clock......hmmmm, hope it's been serviced regularly.

Note to self........when you let someone else work on your car, don't assume they know that the rear springs need to be assisted in reseating on SL suspension
 I have just had the car up on a hoist to have the brakes done and get new tyres fitted a week ago, and forgot to mention that it needs assistance to realign the rear springs when the car is put back down on the ground. Missus has been complaining about a shuddering through the car, so I took it for a spin yesterday arvo, and straight away knew what the problem was Up on the ramps she went and with a little raising of the body on each side, the springs are now seated properly and shuddering has gone  Whilst I was under there, I noticed that my exhaust rubbers have started to perish and have sagged a bit, which has been causing the exhaust to rub on the rear sway bar where it goes over the diff. Better sort that out before I need to get a hole welded up. Anyone know if you can get replacement rubber hangers from SuperCheap, or should I just go see an exhaust place?
