i believe the rear rims are starion turbo items. looks good man, exactly the same as the first wagn i had except it was gc with hotwires. commodore v6 transplant is the go, if u do go ahead with it i suggest u install sigma struts to handle the extra weight ;)

here's some more pics.

this is how she was looking last week.

i've removed the fan. i'm planning on fitting a thermo.

i have recently rebuilt the carby. and i've removed the vac secondries.

this is the bodgy exhaust that was fitted before i got it. i was planning on having extractors and new pipes fitted but i'll wait till i got the v6 in it.

i fitted this tacho in the vent. fits perfect.

hey thanks for the comments. ive got a grille lined up for her but i'm still looking for a bonnet and front bumper as they are still bent from a bingle a couple of years back. as for lowering, i'm planning on doing the front and rear suspension soon, i'll be replacing the steering tie rod ends and recon the box, lower ball joints are buggered as well so they are going to get done also. i'll be replacing all the bushes in the front and rear. rear suspension, i want to get another set of leaf springs and make one stiffer lower set and fit them with new shocks. i'll also look into having the rear rims made a bit wider with a bit more dish, should look real good with the hub caps on them. more pics when i get some done.
cheers

went to u pull it today cause i needed a LHF tie rod. i walked in and around for a bit, couldn't find a galant anywhere, so i went for another round and found a gc wagon, i was so stoked. then realised it had a tacho dash, rear sway bar, door key barrels that i could use my keys in and door belt moulds that were in pretty good nick. so i got the tie rod, and the rest of the stuffand left u pull it with the biggest grin on my face. yay yay.
i'll put some pics up when i do some work
cheers
