    Awesome stuff, although alittle pricey, but well worth it I reckon

    Just make sure when you use it, you don't have to cut it open again! It is beyond a pain in the arse, especially if you have done a long length of loom!

    The only addition is the sunvisor (as he loved my old ute), stocky rims & whitewalls & rear venetian!

    Cool as!

    That's awesome mate. He's lucky to have a friend like you!

    I like doing wiring myself, I'm just not that electrically knowledgeable

    Very cool car mate, always had a soft spot for home built hot-rods.
    If i had any mechanical skill i'd be doing the same.

    I like the look of the Kingswood on whitewalls too btw.

    Great build. When the time comes I plan on building a rat rod. Also loving the kingswood. Those things slammed, on blacks always look awesome.
