Nearly there now... I bet you can feel that blue slip already in your hand
It came together quite nicely. Good stuff.

Never heard of the different size screens, I would think it would be a slight diff in the body (Friday afternoon car).
The screen clips worked out ok then , Trev .

looking good luke!.....

id chop off the rest of the thread on the U-bolts....unless its not a close at what it looks!


aidan...

that will be getting done, the ends sit about an inch off the ground.

i wish the body was that low, but the roads up here are so crap i wouldn't be able to drive it anywhere
i hope not to keep the hotwires, i don't really like them (even though anyone that see's the car reckon they suit it with the colour of the car )
unfortunately i've pretty much blown my budget on the car for a while so i don't have the money to get something better
i'd love a set of dragway indy 14's or 15's (fat rears, skinny fronts)
it'll get there one day, i'd rather have it registered with these wheels than sitting in the garage with nice wheels (they're only going to get driven off it anyway )
cheers, luke.

thats fair enough, they look ok on the car but something else would look a lot better.
Great work anyway good to see ti all coming back together!

Hey Luke, Just throw some full caps over the top and Bob's your uncle!!!
Cheers Theo Z..................

That saying is always amusing to me. My uncle's name is Bob, short for robert

Thats where the saying comes from Jimmy. At one stage everyone had an uncle Robert.
Cheers Theo Z.............

engineering done and rego too
even better news, when i went to register it the rta told me i was eligable to get my licence back, so i passed my theory test (without even studying for it) so they've put me on my L's and i go for my driving test in a week, then back onto my full license... YAY!!!!!
took the car for its first registered drive yesterday arvo and man it was great
now to get some more miles on that speedo


thanks to everyone for their help with the build, i know the work is just beginning and i'm lovin' it!
cheers, luke & kimmy.

Good on ya Luke great job mate

thanks jay, couldn't've done it without you. seeing and going for a ride in your green beast really got the motivation going
when i get my full licence back we'll come for a run up to say hi (and it'll give the ek a good run too)
cheers, luke.

No worries mate be good to catch up
the valla hot rod weekend is on next month i think
so you should come up for that if you dont
