LOVE the pedo-bear in the rear quarter window :lol:

also, WTTC 8)

I don't actually have an FTO, but I've done enough work on various ones (mainly lawso's) to know enough about them. Hopefully I'll have an FTO... one day *falls asleep on desk and dreams*
I'll have an FTO one day... i swear!

until then:
1. 2001 Merc-Benz A160 (porta-loo on wheels)
2. 2007 Peugeot 307 TDi (more fun than you'd expect)
3. [url=ttp://ftoaustralia.com/v3/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=25373]2009 Mitsubishi Triton Di-D (a monster in its own right)[/url]
4. 1992 Nissan NX Coupe (club car and project car)
5. 1996 Holden SB Barina - "The Nugget"
6. 1996 Jeep XJ Cherokee Sport - The Budget Build
7. 2010 Toyota Landcruiser 76 Series - V8 Goodness... - Build coming soon.
8. 1990 Audi 90 manual - The delightfully dignified daily driver

Welcome to the club, car looks great!
I suggest getting rid of that rear spoiler in favor of a stock one though :)

Welcome to the Club!

Personally I like the rear spoiler, I'm one for the more extreme kits...Looks very clean, and I love that sticker :P We love kids! Not much else we can fit in those back seats apart from deformed midgets...

came from japan with a KAZE front bar which is just too low so facelift front was acquired, other than that it has veilside skirts and wing and stock rear bumper.
