Brooksie 0 Posted September 29, 2009 Heres my new lady http://s155.photobucket.com/albums/s285/brooksie_03/ In the side on pic their is rust on the sill directly below the handle, an the back wheel arch is rusting but overall body work is pretty sweet, as you can see the engine bay needs some tlc which is what im currently going through all starting friday lol, then onto the brakes tires an so forth, an then the body work gets a new lease of life but im not changing the colour as i love it. the shocks are 4 years old but 2 different sets as its got koni on the back an blisten on the front so may look into getting a new set in the futre but they are sound for now. the alarm is poo so thats coming out an a toad bugger going in on saturday Im open to opions as most of you have been restoring/moding these babys for a while Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toad 0 Posted September 29, 2009 Fairy muff. Just seen you mention the VSR in your other thread. Not often you see them with the engine plastics on. Can't see where the vaccum pipe fits to the actuator though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
