[mmjosh]

[hotrodder13]

then after some new tyres and brakes and new suspension and a bit of paint it looks like this[frame][/frame]

[hotrodder13]

looks very solid

looks can be deciving needs new inner wings all round has no rear bumper, and needs a new boot floor, lucky it has 2 main floors

[mmjosh]

you going to do that then or you letting someone else do it

[hotrodder13]

now some piks of orignal supension and brakes[frame][/frame][frame][/frame][frame][/frame][frame][/frame]

ill get some piks up 2moro of what the new suspension looks like and them massive disk brakes

[hotrodder13]

you going to do that then or you letting someone else do it

im going to have a go at doin it but im not that good at welding

[mmjosh]

try practicing on a sheet of scrap metal thats how i was learning and i picked it up within an hour

[rossrox]

also it depends on your welder! the welders at college are terrable and dont go in straight lines which made me think i was crap at welding but i have now been welding at work and im all of a sudden good.
nice minor dude!

[hotrodder13]

my dad has 5 welders a tig he used on my exausht, 2 mig and some others

[hotrodder13]

got some piks of the dash and engine finished[frame][/frame][frame][/frame]

[hotrodder13]

new wheels !!!![frame][/frame]

[rossrox]

very nice! but dont forget! you need tyres aswell or theres going to be alot of sparks on the road

[hotrodder13]

goin lower profile when i get some

[rossrox]

nice!!! what size wheels are they???

[hotrodder13]

14x6 for the rear 13x5.5 for the front but i might go 50 profile tyres (cause i lowered the rear the tyres i have got scrub a bit on the wing )

[mmjosh]

i like your wheels

[rossrox]

where abouts is it scrubbing??? top of wing??? or sides??? if sides then you should get some widend wings, or widen yours yourself, if its top of the wing then you probably want to make the ride height abit higher.

[hotrodder13]

the top and thats cause i have lowered it ! , but im gona see what its like with smaller tyres i can get some free to try

and i rearlly dont like the look of widen wings

[rossrox]

if you get tyres that fit, dont forget that the suspension will compress, making your wheel possibly hit and dent or split your wing, how much have you lowered it by? and widend wings are ok but my personal favourite is this http://www.mmoc.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=31612 they are cool widend wings!!!
