^True, the grille was probably better in the later models, but gotta love those hinges and windows. The rear lights also seemed cooler looking, not that they look bad in the later models.

the new rims are 10inches wide it will sit just outside the wheel arch just a mm or 2 depending on the tyre

Slowly but surely project �Orange Juice� moves on�.. the running boards were installed and the bubble arches adjusted to fit the bigger wheels�..

Sunday hopefully is the targeted day for the first layer of primer

I�m still juggling my power plant options although the 850 feels aggressive I need something reliable enough to make a trip to sando 5 days a week and point once a week I intend to make �The Juice� my daily driver

p.s. the back wheel was slack when i took the pix
