coupe melbourne

[van_]

hi guys, just got my car on the road so thought i'd post up some pics and share my build

basically bought this thing and first thing i did was strip it down completely to see what i needed, bought a heap of standard parts just to replace the broken/worn out

pretty much reco'ed the whole car, from underneath rails, bit of rust repair, spot welds and now looking into engine mods

took me 6 months and more than 10k to get it where it is

hope you like it

thanks

Absolute porn. Just needs a kouki front bumper. Great job!

[john84ie]

yeah i agree on the bumper plus zenki lip would be sweet

[Vance]

i like youre overall styling. car turned out mint. jelly fo sho

i dont like mixing kouki/zenki but obviously thats just my useless opinion. build your car for you

[skizzamods]
