Thanks guys.

Warren the shifter is working well. Its still a little stiff but should free up a little soon enough.

I ordered some tyres for it today. 235/60R15 They'll be on 8inch black dynamic rims at the back and 7inch at the front. I'm a little concerned about them scrubbing at the front but I really didn't want to have different size tyres.
I'm using the black dynamic rim because I already had a set here and at this point I cant afford a full set of something sexy. I think they may end up suiting what I am doing anyway.

Thanks mate. I'm really happy with it. I'd be happier with a different engine and gearbox but I'll live with it for the time being :)

Hey Shane....see if ya can get some chrome centres to set them off. This was a set of steel mags that one of our earlier members restored for his swb van.

I agree. Some chrome centre caps would be great. I have been looking but haven't had much luck find any so far though.

The rim manufacturer does these ones: What do you think?

Have a look at my gallery toward the end with the white walls, I have the exact same rims with the centre caps and chrome wheel trims, looks a treat I reckon!
