Been meaning to take a few pictures of him for you lot for a while, but only just got round to it as i can't seem to stop driving him! But i gave it a wash and wax this afternoon so thought i'd put them up :P

He's stock inside apart from a new headunit and some 6x9's i'm currently making a speakerboard for with a mate.
Group 2 arches, whole new respray in arizona blue with a black roof.
Minilite (style) wheels though not sure on make, with yoko tyres :( and a straight through double stainless exhaust with black box.

I've got big plans for the styling :) - bullet mirrors; wipac spots; leather steering wheel; cobra classic buckets, and i'm planning on reupholstering the door cards myself :cry:
Then i'll have a look at maybe uprating the performance :)

Hope you like!
