frats,
Rosco

Very happy today, new fleck trim arived for the wagon, absolutely love it!!

Thats gonna look sweet as good to see the supplier of this stuff seems to be at least a bit easier to get hold of ?

Think it took about 5 months but am very happy with it, good things take time i guess!

Finally painted up the rechromed H medallions, fitted them to the moon discs, am very happy with the look, thinking i should get white walls tho??? Thoughts??



Now starting to sort out the wiring

Yep definitely need white walls. Will finish it off nicely. If you can try and get Hankooks. They'll handle the abuse from the 8. A mate ran them on his Fairlane with a healthy 302 Windsor and he found they could hook or spin depending on how he felt like driving.

Those hub caps look great Bumpar with the H medallion. I reckon white walls will really set them off.

Just listed them on facebook for $200, asked a few people and they thought that would be fair, they are mint, most welcome to come view them!

Bit of a clean up round home, looks good everypiece that goes back on

Looking good Brett.

We run Hankook whitewalls on the panelvan for over 100,000ks and the whitewalls were never a problem to look after.
The Hankooks looked so much better than the Simitomo's we have now. (We were told that Hankook whitewalls are no more.......sadly find out this is not the case).... The tyres look average, they have done only 3,000ks and the white walls are browning. I have just ordered antique whitewall cleaner from Antique tyres, fingers crossed that it saves me from too much grief.
