Great work! A lot of effort has clearly gone into it, time and money too! Big kudos mate!
The Green Machine is up for sale . Lifted, bars, exhausts... View Gumtree ad

Forgot some stuff on the list of existing mods, L series Front brakes (bigger) and Rear discs too.
And thanks everyone. And i have no idea of the time that has gone into it but money wise would be under $1000 including window seals, paints, etc.

Also it was Yellow when it came out the factory but was already a light blue when i got her.El_Freddo wrote:Good stuff mate! I reckon a spray job will be my next task on the agenda - maybe not on Ruby Scoo but it'll be something one day!
How long did it take you to do the work? And I'm guessing it was once yellow?
Keep up the good work!
