Never seen this car before Brendon, don't think there is a build thread on here. What's so special about it?

seemed to suggest it was someone where.
nothing much, just interested in the gsr front lip (need to be cut down to fit wagon so keen to see whhere the cut it, how straight/stitched etc)
and the bonnet scoop I'd be interested in more photos to see if i like it or not and what its off

The bonnet scoop is off of a Starion. Same as mine, just didnt use the side vent's.
as for the front spoiler it is the aftermarket fibreglass one. same as this one.

nice cheers for that.
with the bonnet did you cut down the starion one or just graft the scoop/vents on the sigma bonnet

starion bonnet is completly different shape, so cut the scoop and vents out and had it welded in.

IMO that black wagon would have looked better with the starion rims posted a bit further up.
Were those rims only available on the widebody models?

Wide body Starions were 5 stud configured. The closest we got to those rims were the alloy wheels fitted to some Express Starwagon vans but were only narrow (unlike those monsters on the rear!) The black wagon does look tough

The GE wagon had an NA 2.6 put in it and it was sold - never saw it again
. Running gear was saved and years later ended up in my old GK GSR which I sold earlier in the year. I miss both cars!

Boyd's also made a bigger wheel version of the supra wheels that look pretty good IMO
