    Interested to see pics of how you've plumbed in the carby.

    i.e. whether it's boxed or not.
    You can have any brew you want... as long as it's a Datsun / Corolla / What is that?

    thanks for the comments guys,

    yeah thats a gilly lip,
    8 leafs is great, not much movement tho, loves the 3 wheels with sierra's

    i wouldnt mind some fender mirrors but the standard ones do something for me?


    thanks again guys, didnt think i would get this kind of feedback from the coil sprung boys
