The tail lights look alright glowing but with no lighting they would have looked better red rather than black.

Love the stance.

and I like the shape of the back window in your photo request to scotty.

But you need better looking wheels.

Can you buy 18 inch 12 slotters? :P

Im only using the size to guide me , I now know Ive gotta raise the wheel tub 3 inches from stock and pump the quarters 15mm .
If ever I ran an 18 it will be a steely with more meat on the profile.

hey harko

i read through your story in street machine, awesome shed i must say. i actually read it while i was on the way to tamworth to pick up a chopped ute before the long weekend, now the chopped ute me and my mate picked up (for him) had the original size rear window in it. Altho it looks cool, i think ur idea with the small 40 &*#@ type window looks alot better, it might not be the era but it suits the profile of the car, may i suggest losing the qtr windows too?
It will give the cab the illusion of being longer. all in all this ute looks killer, if it was mine id tack the back window in, leave the stockies on it and drive it ratty! hells yeah!
all the best

Harko...are you turning into a closet Zimm pirate??? :? :shock: :lol:
Piss orf the girl rims and use something more suiting, like 14" chromies etc and leave the big rims with "elastic band profile tyres" to the "fast 4-skin & rotisserie" boys! :lol: :lol: :lol:
