hey mez, welcome...
mate that looks sweeeeeet as, loooove the colour too, although not a colour i would have chosen in the can... but you obiuosly could see the result in your head... as the colour looks great...
are there airbags just in the front... if so why... is it becuase there is less choping up car to be done???
like minifc said... ANYMORE PIC'S
engine bay pic's, aibags up & down... etc.
what are you other plans for it...

You've done an exellent job with your EK
I love the colour and the proportions look right.
Great job
Looking forward to seeing pics of the engine bay.

hey guys will try and post some more pics this weekend
the car only has rear airbgs still with the leaf springs
but reset super low,the boot has been notched out to
allow for the bags
my plan is steel rims with some sort of kool caps and wide whites
the green and the yellow cream roof are just some thing i mixed up
will get some more pics asap

that's tops
good to see another person that if they want something they go and do it instead of talking about it and hopeing it will happen by itself
i'm against everyone else i'm not overly keen on the colour looks like army green to me, and i probably would have made the front doors a little shorter to try to get the side glass a little more in proportion, but like i say all the time it's yor car, and if you've read some of my posts i say what i think so don't get offended i'm not trying to tell you what to do
chrome may make a bit of difference for me
