umm..
why do you own 4?

Post by **dstocks** » Sat Aug 09, 2008 9:22 pm

Why not

.

Actually, I have my daily driver (version R), One im getting complied to sell (16,000km). One I was building into a simulator for the computer and the one I bought today (EBay).

Actually just realised, I have 5 now not 4

. Im also wrecking one that I picked up last month.

Bit of damage I need to repair on the one im turning into a ute though. Been side-swiped on the passengers side:

Ahh well, have plenty of shells to cut repair panels out of. AZA reckons I should put a lift kit on it

. I might just do that to see how it looks.

It's not a question of WANT, it's a question of NEED..
I mean, who NEEDS 5 side skirts?

Yeah Aza, if they are OK, they are yours. I certainly dont need them on this project.

Yeah Aza, if they are OK, they are yours. I certainly dont need them on this project. I know there is a set of Camber adjustable strut tops and a front strut brace on it as well. Theyll probably end up coming off too.

Dwayne this might be a strange coincidence but I have a rear left quarter panel freshly pressed from Mitsu, I dunno if you want it or not. It was special order so they got out the moulds and all.

Haha no wonder you needed a big property down south... to keep everything you buy on ebay lol.

If the bootlid on your latest one is in good nick and you don't need it, may I reserve it please?

Thanks mate

How far along are you with this ute concept... got drawings happening?!

Post by **dstocks** » Mon Aug 11, 2008 11:42 pm

Nah,

been thinking it over in my head. Im going to massacre the purple wreck ive got as a concept to see how it looks. Will probably make it up as i go along. First step will be to repair the damage on the white one.
