Nice color choice, can't wait to see the finished product.

Thats going to be 1 sweet ride mate when its finished.
A mate of mine from newcastle has a 56 very similar to yours. they would look good together side by side at nationals.
I think yours is a little more candy then his. but its been together for about 2 years now

Joel - January 12th, 2008 at 09:57 AM

Damn! thats gonna look hot

u'll cop alot of shit about the rims same way i do, but they suit it well

u dropping it any lower than when it was blue?


BU90FF - January 12th, 2008 at 11:35 PM

Yeah i was expecting that about the wheels
but thats life. i like them. i got another set in mind
got to see what they look like when its all done.

I am painting the stockers like the car and putting fat white walls
on them as another option.....

As for the ride hight I am dropping it pretty low, still got to bring he front down a little further, should look tuff

awesome colour and oval. horrid wheels though :(


sean68 - January 17th, 2008 at 07:04 PM

the bugs looking good :tu:
maybe you remember me.....i was helping shannon across the road from your place in arncliffe
supposedly he's nearly finished his bug and he got some empi 5's for wheels
