quickrack Posted November 26, 2006 Report Posted November 26, 2006 COOL car.So clean.Even the 4drs are getting hard to find now.Over here a nice one is making as much as a 2dr did couple of years ago.
MK2 Gaz Posted March 21, 2007 Author Report Posted March 21, 2007 New (old) wheels... BEFORE: AFTER: On Car: Refurbed by my good self, and shod with 175/70/13 Firestones. New chrome bumper also due to merc with no rear view mirror!!!
antz Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 nice!!! needs lowering though and the 175/70s just fit if you lower it 2 inches
steve mk2 Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 looks nice mate..... did you take the vinal off and paint the roof or did it come like that???????
MK2 Gaz Posted March 22, 2007 Author Report Posted March 22, 2007 The roof was like it, although i think there more than likely would have been vinyl there at some point, there is a definite colour fade-in around the sides of the rear window, tbh I wouldve gotten rid of vinyl if it had been there, just not a fan of the stuff, though it can look great if in good nick, think its a flashback reflex to my dads old vauxhall viva roof!!! antz - have you lowered yours? Did you do it yourself? If so send me a pm with what bits you used/needed, and how much you paid for em if its not too much trouble? Cheers dude
oldskool4me Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 that looks the nuts mate go on the four door
ilovegrannys Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 Looks the nuts mate. Love the rims. Keeping it standard? Love the 4 doors. I had a 1300 a while back, it was a minter. I ripped out the 1300 put in 5 speed, 2 ltr. Wish i didnt i can tell you. The lump can be modded to the max with out a engine change. Good luck with what ever you do with her - just look after her
trakevlyn Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 Looks the muts! Especially the new wheels and doesn't matter how many doors you have it still goes round corners sideways!!!
