yeah they REALLY don't help

it's all kinda worst case too

front springs are to stiff HK V8 heavy duty, NO interior besides a front seat so lots of noise from rocks etc hitting in wheel arches, no side glass and it was about 9 degrees

and no door or boot rubbers also not alot of sleep, feel much better today been out doing some things, but it has to go to orange on friday (100ks each way) for brake test and of coarse predicted weather single digits again

and 90% chance of rain so i think it will be getting trailered

Sounds like driving my roadster.... Brrrrrr!

But I do think you could get it to where you are relatively comfortable in it. If you keep it long enough.

it'll never be comfortable

change of springs to something softer (got heaps of them but all pretty low so gotta wait till after rego)

) and interior will go a long long way to improving it

i've just talked my self into it being junk and i will hate it

but yeah just a matter of hanging on and working through the issues as they come to hand
