Its been a big week for me i flew back to
Coffs Harbour and took the car up to the engineer
and no drama's there then for a blue slip
all fine there so then into the RTA and
got the plates

drove the car back today she went like a rocket
thanks to all the guys who gave me advice while i was
building the car and a massive thanks to my DAD
with out his experience and knowledge the car would not
have been half as good as it is

couple of pics with the flappers on and plates

Top stuff Jay

theres nothing that beats the feeling of cruising in a car with a brand new set of plates on it.

the EK looks great with the steelies and the flappers - just enough old school touch.

what front and rear end are you running?

Thanks oldgmh
the front end is HR with commodore disks
and HQ PBR calipers
the rear end is a early commodore drum brake
diff with the saddles moved and re welded into the
correct spot

Love the car mate.. i'm jealous as mine isn't done yet.

Don't like the steelies though.. should get a set of smoothies or original style steelies for the old girl.

I think there allright, good to see some change happening instead of the same old- same old. He can change to what ever he likes when he gets bored with it.
