    Burning holes?

    Don't hold the mig straight on.. Hold in side on , the further you hold it, the less heat and less likely hood of buckles and burns!

    Take it slow and stitch it

    It's painfully slow but yeh

    The satisfaction of knowing you've taken your time to do it right will be worth the time burned now.

    Sits really nicely at the moment - what size tyres are on it now and what are you going to change to?

    anything in particular you're after? what sort of coin are you looking to spend?

    Try Barrel Brothers in Sydney, mates of mine started a classic wheel resto business... they have some cool $hit, they cater to the Datsun/Toyota scene, so 4x100 is harder to come across in stock, but if you ask they'll keep their eye out.

    These are their current 13's in stock.

    Wobble bolts to 114? lol. Im in no rush to find wheels, im pretty happy to wait and find a awesome set or even import something from Japan. On the other hand my firewall is all sealed, still have alot of bogging and all that left but will probably wait until the engine is out, will be so much easier.


    Now onto the floors.. than happy sailing after!
