Was the ute finished off with the standard sick carnt look being lowered on pursuit rims with chrome surrounds? 'and might I also add the EB'?' XR tail lights where a suitable upgrade from factory 
Another very well put together well written read and as we all know 'a thread is useless without pic's'.
Shame you're father had a fascination with American muscle, but we wont hold that against him :P |
hahah Yep, it never let me down. It used fuel like it was going into prohibition but it never once died. I did the XR6 headlight conversion, colour coded bumpers and mirrors, FPV Anodised Rocker Cover in orange, extractors and a cam and it still didn't go any quicker
The ute ended up getting some Dragway Indy's from my brother in laws XC later in the piece, it looked mean! I wish I still had this ute in many ways.
Nothing wrong with American muscle if you ask me
He did have many aussie cars over the years too, a couple of memorable ones were a statesmen deville and a VK Calais brand new with two tone blue and silver paint job.
