Update tubs all finished hopefully squeeze in a 255/60/15 had the shell blastered looks like there isn't to much body work but will progress photos of repairs as we go . Looking at extending the chassis rail into the floor and welding some plates up for the rear trailing arm points ..... I was tossing up weather or not to build a ls turbo but I love the Holden v8 so building a turbo 308

Like idea of cheap 308 turbo setup,more fun to play with also can go surprisingly well when you have lower expectations & less cash put in.

 

Near standard vn-s 5 litre dont mind boost.
