You're right, the wheels are a bit funny looking. There 's a similar ute down the road from me (not quite as good, carry bar , tradies ute i suspect) for 2 gorilla's Cheers  Daz

Nice ute mate, looks to be pretty tidy. Good score indeed. Love the colour, although im biased
 Im with ya regarding those rims too, cant stand that style at all especially on a Ford. Your making a wise decision replacing them

Very very smik mate. The wheels would look good on another car but yeah they dont really work on it I must agree.
Hopefully sooner rather then later I will be parking my a*** in a ute again , but it will be a V8 this time...............

Going to run it at wsid soon with my micky t E/T radials on,there 255/50/16's on ba rims while the car is standard still then again after cam,extractors and exhaust to see what it picks up.... phill |

Been working on a few things on the ute of late.Changed the intake to ba type with 3'' pipe onto the el air box with airhog air filter usally use k&n but thought id try this one.Just got the hood lining out to get redone as it was sagging.
Do you's think the motor would be a hi-bred in the ute as its a 6/97 model but rego papers say its xh96a and the head has 95dt on it ?? if its 95 head that means it should havent have au cam/rocker gear ?? .... phill |

It's an XHI, and it's not a hybrid.
