Looking great
Looks a little evil with the grille bits off.
The excitement of driving her must be a great feeling.

Well done.

Here is my update

Fitted my new rims. Billet Specialties, they look alright to me.











Have nearly finished the interior. Just the console and a few minor things.

Finished the kick panels



Hopefully not long before I get it on the road.

Can't seem to get a decent run at it lately as I have been repairing my daughters car after being in a bungle and now my son's car has had the motor overheat and seize up.

Until next time!!! Smiley

Thanks Nick and NES

Nick the wheels are Billet Spec. Chicaynes. Specs as follows:

 - Fronts are 15 x 7 (4.625in. BS) running 205 60s
 - Rears are 15x 7 (3.75 in. BS) running 215 60s

I spent bloody ages tracking these down and ended up buying in direct from the US.

I had them drilled to the Commodore PCD of 120mm as well.

It took 4 weeks from ordering to delivery to Toowoomba. Could not recommend Billet Specialties enough as they were very helpful.

They have some other styles as well that will suit the older cars. Must warn everyone though they can get a bit expensive but I am very happy with the end result.

Cheers
