Looks good mate!

What future mods do you have in mind?

A pair of fairmont ghia chrome interior door handles will go really well with the leather. Check out the workshop section on aufalcon.com for the info. Fairly cheap and easy mod to do and looks the goods!

really want to customize the tray, shorter and filled in underneath.

Apart from that it is a learning curve for me so I am open to idea's on what can be done.

I have been checking out the mod's in the workshop area and it all looks interesting.

Havnt driven a style side equivilant so not sure on the comparrison.
But the leaf springs it has give it a firm feal.

Back end is VERY light and it does not take to much to light up the tyres.
BUT after getting used to driving it, I no longer feel out of control.
Sticks to the road rather well.

Untill I no longer want it to :
