Guys havent done much to the ol girl sonce all holden day... actually havent even cleaned it due to being in between houses, ive only seen the ute once in 4 weeks... :cry: :cry:

After seeing Sam, Daves, Blacky and a few of the other utes of late and watching their builds im motivated again think its what i needed so now the utes getting blinged up thanks to SunnyTim and a few pieces off to the chromers, white walls ordered keep an eye out for some pics once these additions are done

Hey Sam tyres frome here

www.antiquetyres.com.au/

size i went with 185/80/13

Good site and if you can call them quite helpful aswell, was going to get some prolite rims but after doing well at All Holden Day decided to stick with as classic/original as possible

Loving the progress of yours Sam, hoping to get to the Nats want to have a good look at yours and some of its original features that may have disappeared on mine during the resto

cheers
