Jamo's 3 prides of joy

[yellashorty40]

HI folks

well it all started when i got bitten by the bug off the old man, so as a youngen i sold my aussie sedan and bought this ol girl, a 40 series that i did up a bit, 2F with extractors 350 holley, bored out to 60 thou, 2.5 inch sports exhaust, re-did the dash in chrome switches with red LEDs and a Red backlit speedo etc, Push button start warn hubs etc etc ... needless to say i loved it, just not the most practical car !

Then i graduated to a car i thought was more practical (hahaha) .. meet "tiny" A troopy with a 4 inch lift 33x12.5 muddies, PTO winch, UHF, Subs, pretty much everything .. my toy i spose.

that was fun

looks like you've had a pretty good collection.
whats planned for the current one?

[yellashorty40]

well i have already had the 2 inch lift and the 33's and the remote face UHF, 1200 watt inverter with plug in the rear, i need some more lights (prolly on the roof narva taurus ull lamps probably) and i may go to a 4 inch lift to fit 35's and lockers for sure .. just money i spose !

But all in all im pretty happy with it the way it is atm !

[Kransky]

nice rig mate, pity you got rid of the 40, looked sweet.

Cheers,

Col.

yer it is a pity i really miss floggin that ol girl around ... thanx 4 the compliments too !

[harvey]

what's the colour of your GQ as it doesn't look silver to my eye or gold - it looks kinda inbetween the two?

[yellashorty40]

yer it is in between the too its like a light puta colour !

[Bond]

Do your 33's rub on the rear flares and on the front mud flaps? Mine did (even with 4' lift) so i had to pull them off and just made up some garden edging ones. My gq is exactly the same (colour too)

[yellashorty40]

no mine rear only rub very very slightlyat FULL flex with the rear stabilizer bar disconnected so where the flares attatch to the body at the base on the rear i drilled a new hole and attatched them further back and it solved the problem so it's all good now. :)
