stevie82 Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 (edited) Thought I'd get another as this sr was too cheap to pass up, not sure if it's anyone's previous on here but it needs a fair bit of work. Plans are to restore it back to original with small mods mainly to the handling Edited March 24, 2019 by stevie82 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stevie82 Posted April 16, 2016 Author Share Posted April 16, 2016 I'm not too fond of the flush rear bumper and boot it's just not to my taste so if anyone has a silver boot and bumper they wanna swap I'm open to itSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stevie82 Posted April 16, 2016 Author Share Posted April 16, 2016 Oh and the rear lamps I'm not keen on those either Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dale SR Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Good to see you restoring her, I would deffinetly get rid of the smoothed boot! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jeffrosie Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Good idea lol as didn't think it looked right with the boot. But the bumpers are a nice touch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rich-k Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Going back to standard will be great Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jeffrosie Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Bumpers gives it more modern look smoothened out I think, but the smoothened hatch gotta go. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
*Pete* Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Wow that boot lid, looks clean from the photos though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stevie82 Posted April 18, 2016 Author Share Posted April 18, 2016 Wow that boot lid, looks clean from the photos though!Yeah the whole back ends gotta go I'm afraid, it's got a few small dents and scratches that need sorting but on the whole it's not too bad Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SOG33K Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Looks nice and clean there but that tailgate looks like shit. Never liked that look, there is a a cars in Aus that have that and it ruins the look IMO Quote Link to post Share on other sites

aarzlp Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Be nice when you finish her up need that boot sorting out. Imp the smooth boot and smoked lights has spoilt it. But good for you wanting to make it original Quote Link to post Share on other sites
