Unacceptable!!! Push it out of the garage and take some pictures right now. I don't care if your driveway is an incline. Take them now.

NO, it's OK !!! Cause I'm the dumb bastard he'll call to push the thing up the hill.

ITS THE SAME CAMERA!

this weekend i will have time to put a new starter in it and then i can get it out of the garage to take some "real pics" :Zip2:

wasn't able to get it out of the garage this weekend -but here are some better pics... maybe better.

65up2d8 · Nov 6, 2005

Those are somewhat better. It looks good. What wheels are you running?

ttoney · Nov 6, 2005

Looks really good. What Axle are you running? That does not look like 67 backspacing. Shortened or Versille?

65up2d8 · Nov 6, 2005

One small critique, though. You need to do some work on your trunk lid fit. Otherwise, it's looking good, and I look forward to seeing it once you get it washed and put back together. Better quality pics would be a plus, but who am I to say anything; I don't even own a digital camera.

The trunk wasn't a bad fit, until the gasket went on.

try putting some weight on it for a few days, like bags of concrete or something on piece of plywood, just make sure to put nice thick blanket or something underneath first. that will compress the weatherstrip

if can believe it- that is better then when i first installed the weather stripping the first day it was a good 1/2" too high... know i need a good 1/4" it it should be fine

thanks bnickel- if it comes to that- i will set some wieght on it

Hmm, do you know if it is stock width, wider, narrower etc? How the heck did you get 11" wheels under the fenders and have it fit properly. I really like it.

My Versialle rear is a couple inches shorter than stock, so I have nice BS for deep rims, but that is SICK! Did you massage anything?

Thanks,
Tim

what seats do you have in there?

billbanshee · Nov 7, 2005

looks awsome thinking of going with the c/s trunk lid myself

351carlo · Nov 7, 2005

I can't decide whether I want to get it painted, or if I want to get the Aussie heads ported and a new C4 with converter.

If you don't mind shooting me a PM with details on what work you did, what they did, and how much (ballpark) it cost, I'd appreciate it.
