G'day guys

Been on the forums for a couple months now snooping around. Thought it would be time to post my wheels for ya'll to see. To be honest and up front. I don't know a whole deal about cars. I know how they run and how to check/change oils, but that's as far as it goes!

Anyway. Here's my car. These are the only pictures I have. I will get some more once I get my licence, which is on the 15th and once I clean it up a bit.

Bought it over a year ago from a mate from work. Not long before I bought it his cousin mechanic came across a 5 speed transmission. We decided to go halves in that since we already made up a contract for the sale. I bought it as is. Pedders suspension and extractors/exhaust. Can't say I know if anything else has been done. Drives great. Plenty of oomph when needed and a comfy ride all round.

In a couple of spots paint is peeling off. It's only the top gloss coat, so the undercoat is still there. So it is still protected from weather. Mechanically brilliant. Only problem I've had is a flat battery. Which came about after not running for a couple weeks. Interior is starting to get dirty. Needs a good clean out.

I planned to do some work on it but it's hard when you are only on first year apprentice wages.
Current plan is to keep it running and on the road until I earn some decent money. And depending on what sort of condition it's in I might chuck some performance mods into it. But until then it does more than enough to keep me happy!

Hope you blokes like it, I sure as hell do!

Cheers!

Not yet man.
Gotta give it a nice clean up before I take any. Carpet needs a good shampoo/dry clean or what ever. It's filthy!
