BROCKYB8 · Post by **BROCKYB8** » September 24th, 2012, 4:01 pm

I thought that is was about time i maybe put a thread up about my daily shit hack .

I got this off Beths brother in a rather sick and sorry state .
From here i decided id put a motor in it and that would be done .

Well since then its had only a few slight mods put on it but here is how she sits today .
It has a xr6 front bar .
Full xr6 running gear
is now manual
345 diff .
Hp starcorp 20s
Phat Gaurd rolling has rolled gaurds
Lowered 3 inch rear blocks plus springs reset
Full custom interior .
Plus Memphis stereo with custom install in doors and boot .

Boot up at Sandown because i was told to

Should make for a reasonably quick wagon, even on low boost. Looks good and will be interesting to see how well it goes.

I think the gearbox will hate things pretty soon

Im actually borrowing a spare gearbox for springnats next weekend .
