Hopefully there will be better pics to show on Sunday! Got a car show for a good cause to go to. The good cause is for a local 5 year old girl that had a stroke. Raising funds for medical treatments and such.

Have yet to work on the tow bar cover. Have to also find my spare lh tail light and lh inner. They are in really bad nick. Let’s the car down so much…

Prettied up the wipers last weekend. Since they were showing undercoat… Also Prettied up the bay a little… So tomorrow is wash, detail and replace failed pieces. As well as detail a mates car. So busy weekend ahead!

I guess I need to put new globes into the old foggies… both of them don’t work. Blue Vision H3’s are ready to go in. Just gotta find a dry spot.

Spokes are body colour. Orange breaks up the colour a little.

With the rain, can’t help it… The whole week has rain…

With the dummy tongue idea, are you saying to make a cover using the tow bar tongue mounts?

That plug has power to it at all times… so I dunno…

VS 5.0, what’s your foggies hooked up to?

[WomblesParticipant 1995 VS Acclaim v6. Soon to be supercharged 1995 VS Executive 5L. 1973 Holden Torana Deluxe View build HERE Member since: March 2, 2015 Posts: 71]

I kinda Wonna do both… Had a quick search on e bay for a cover.. Only VX ones showed up…

 

No comments on the new paint Gary? So cruel. Hahaha.

The mysterious plug.

The dilemma… cut it to fit a tongue or find a cover… or both?

[WomblesParticipant 1995 VS Acclaim v6. Soon to be supercharged 1995 VS Executive 5L. 1973 Holden Torana Deluxe View build HERE Member since: March 2, 2015 Posts: 71]

I’m being so mean on the pics front…

Foggies arnt wired up yet.. the wiring in the bay is supposibly different to the plug on the lights… Damn it… Anyone know if there’s a small length of wiring that goes between? Cause, why else would I have a plug on both sides zip tied to the harness…

Also gotta look into a plug or whatever you call it for the tow bar hole… They didn’t fit the tongue as it wouldn’t have fitted. I either have to modify the hole to fit the tongue or don’t run a tow bar at all. Kinda want the option to run the tow bar though… So I may have to make up a cover to fit… Damn new choices!

Hey Gary, got a write up on that brake bias adjuster and pics of your setup? Kinda keen to look into that.

[WomblesParticipant 1995 VS Acclaim v6. Soon to be supercharged 1995 VS Executive 5L. 1973 Holden Torana Deluxe View build HERE Member since: March 2, 2015 Posts: 71]

If they work as per normal then it should be fine. How’s a mechanic who’s writing the rwc gonna know it was second hand?

Got the baby back today. Holy shit, she looks amazing! No spoiler, no tow bar and shiny as. No shots as I got it at 7 tonight. Man o man, what a change!

Lovely rig mate. Keen to see the updates.

I’d be interested to see spots as well. Wouldn’t like it in the open. Somewhere out of the way but easily accessed.

[WomblesParticipant 1995 VS Acclaim v6. Soon to be supercharged 1995 VS Executive 5L. 1973 Holden Torana Deluxe View build HERE Member since: March 2, 2015 Posts: 71]

Wow. Amazing build. Amazing quality of work done. Love it. How to make a Lexcen look epic. Would love to see more pictures of work done!

I’ll put my hand up for a passenger run in this!

Beautiful car Rich. Loved this on the other forum. Don’t think I commented on it though…

I got the Big Brake Kit. The VE kit basically. I want something bigger on the rear. Might have to do the VT – VZ upgrade. Got a rear frame in the backyard. Then get an upgrade for it. Car will have 18 s at lowest 20s most of the time. So, Gary, where is this thread to guide me in the upgrade?
