Sweet ride Matty, considering its starting point when i saw you on oldholden,

cheers

Looking very cool

Don't know how you can get to this far then be away where you can't stare at it

thanks guys,

yeah, its hard to stay away at the moment. but life being so hectic has made it somewhat easier to handle as i dont have much time to think about it, which is a good thing when its so far away...


any ideas of what colour to paint the engine... i was thinking of the grey engine grey or black, as i think it would be a less work to keep it looking good...


off to find some tyres hopefuly on monday...
matty martin

i think the grey motor grey would look good with the cars colour choice but if yor planning chrome work on the engine/engine bay i don't think they go togeather real well but alluminium will
tyres if yor just after skinny white walls there's a guy on ebay at cambeltown $350 a set buy now

i think black looks good, especially with a chrome rocker cover etc...

great work matty looks killa

id go body colour for the engine aswell with lots of chrome

cheeers dave

gday
Out of curiosity did the wagon come from victoria?
It looks like one i was considering buying back in 2005
it was a toss up between the wagon i have now and the one that looks similar to yours. NSW rego won the toss up.

Mate the wagon looks sharrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrp !!! Glad you took this path then the rb engine swap.

As ek61 says mate , body colour with chrome or the other option .... if your having a different colour for the interior, paint the engine this colour.

This wagon Matty compared to seeing it at Clarendon AHD 2007 has completely changed !!! Good work mate , it looks bloody classy.

Hi Matty i found some red and amber globes yesterday at K MART
of all places in the auto section check them out if you cant find them
let me know and i will get them for you and post them to you jay

Hi Matty, in response to Jay's post I also want to send you free stuff. I have the wiper and lights dash knobs if you still want them. PM me your address and I will send you some.

dam (AUST)Mod, your post confused me hahaha

matty are you not putting those chrome strips back on?

I quite liked it, kinda made it different to all the other wagons and made it look more like a chevy is some unknown way
