And drop a chev in.

With a 3/4 chassis, seeing though you have put redwalls on the car its worthless now anyway, so you may aswell pull the tags off and throw them in the bin.

BTW Mike i recon your WRX would look better with redwalls.

Cheers.

that is absolute GOLD john,

when you ordered a car in the 60,s and 70,s you could have what ever you wanted,i want a hk kingswood with a 186, bucket seats,console,drum brakes all round,gts dash,monaro hub caps ,and thats what you got no matter how queer the order,thats how they sold cars.

while were on queer, mike seems to research so much ,that he is trying to convince himself that his car should be on the 150 list,but guess what, yours is not.

Purpul Police. Yeah I've been to the darkside and seen some of your handywork in the Fastlane. You really do need to get a life or at least learn some people skills.

well fellars i hope you liked the story line, but mike73 does have one thing in his favor the car i have posted is one of the first gtrs to be built not a 73, i would like to give you proof that this did happen in 73 as well but the original tyres on my 8 month 73 nibless are very faded, i have tryed taking pics of these wheels but thay dont show up in the pics,,, i know of 5 forum members that live around here, one or all are welcome to come and looksy,,, but i dont think there word would be good enough for SOME.

cheers gong

they are only tyres for god sakes,Redwalls look great on them,if you like them,i would sooner T/A's or Eagers's,as i think they are the best looking tyres,Sad thing is you can only get them in a retread in 13" now. Bring back the 13" T/A's and 13" Eagers i say.

Gee I hope Mike doesn't get too upset. Maybe I should have asked him if Bridgestone Eagers were acceptable before I put them on my Torrie.

About $120.00 to do my car and Sam comes to my house.

A small indentation is made into the sidewall using a buffing tool and then the paint is applied by hand using a small roller. Wheel is driven by a 240v powered motor. Takes less than one hour.
