I dont think you would normally imagine the amount of room in the LHR gaurd, unless as i did, you already had the trims off, im pretty sure the Ti models have the rear A/C fan unit in this space ?

My ST GU8 has the rear seat aircon in there as well. Must be a later model thing.

Cool ....when you finish there you can start on my car mate...???

How long you think you have to go???

I think ill be ready to send it for a roadworthy early next week, once i have that, then i can book it in for its WOVI (writen off vehicle inspection).

I found out the WOVI people have about a month back log of cars to inspect, you need a roadwothy just to book the car in, so im just getting what i need done on the car for the roady, because then ill have to wait a month anyway.

While im waiting for the WOVI i can fit all the other gear like dual battery, spotties, winch etc (if i havent already) plus maybe get it over to scotties place to have a look a doing the rear bar ?

So i guess im still about 6 weeks away from getting rego

Great work, it will be worth the wait from the looks of the build so far. Well done and something you can be very proud of.

OK , been bustin my guts getting things done, and its now all ready for a roadworthy inspection, booked in for monday (or tuesday if they get busy).

I still have lots to do, but bars are all on, onboard air system finished, stereo installed, i put another few litres of stone gaurd under it today, as well as a few more litres of chassis black, its well and truly beach "resistant" now




Had the use of a Trade plate, so this allowed me to take it out on the road for a little drive, went really good concidering its the first time its been driven on the road for well over a year.


how it looks now....









While i was driving around, some guy nearly ran into a traffic island he was staring at the car so much (ha-ha), another couple stopped 3 cars back from a set of lights to look at the paint in the sun


Anyway, still got sliders , winch , spotties and all that jazz to hook up, but getting very close now, it was so nice to get just a little bit of enjoyment back from it all today, instead of the normal work, work, work i have come to associate my time spent with the car.
