Love all the photos, you got any full shots of the firewall with nothing on it?
Go the 84 T/A's!!!!!! :P

icebird84

thx

I was looking photo of your car nice but steering wrong side you down under

VenomX-87

Haha yeah it's all backwards :P

Also what color will you be painting it?

icebird84

white color from the house of kolor
it will look like this, but not rims or doorbumper (not sure watt it is call) the line prevents your car door from getting dinged



this rims 15" or 16"

icebird84

no but will take one later to day for you ,but it is now 03:09 time for bed good night

VenomX-87

Ah cool i really like the look of the 15th anniversary T/A, you'res is a WS6 isn't it? also like the black n yellow in the first pic, it really stands out


EDIT: there 15x7's id say like mine are.

icebird84

TAdan

It looks like you have quite the project. It is nice to see it moving along. I love 15th's, they are real head-turners, good choice.

Have fun.

Thanks for sharing the pictures!

icebird84

good day here little update did sum cleaning and found little rust





small fiberglass to close the repair

icebird84

good tow truck back to work

I went on a trip to Hafanfjörð



to get my Ls1 and 4L60-E from rebuild


to get from Reykjavík to Akranes you need to go through Mosfellsbær it was build next to the highway so to day we have 9 small DuPont circle to go through , so after that it is good idea to make sure motor is secure



11 years ago the road went only to the right 85 km to Akranes to go

but 10 years ago we got a tunnel so 20 km to go
