Looks killer as always mate. Silver was defiantly the right choice on those wheels. Keen to see what you do with it next.

Looks good with the silver, sets it off nicely.

So what's next? You've done wheels, paint, stereo and suspension.... Cam? Blower? Turbo? Mexicans?

Always a good laugh with comments! I want todo more but its just to good how it is. I feel like if I go all Mexican it would only cause issues. If I drop a lifter or something happens to break then that will be my excuse

Not much to update. I'm sorry the exciting stuff is mostly over now.
The wagon has been going unbelievable! Had to firm the rear coilovers up what's expected for just installing them but other then that its a dream of a car. Hopefully out of the lemons?
Gave her a service. Nothing to note. Oil was a little worn but no metal ect so happy days.

I hate yellow light and the had a couple of lights go out. One a parker and one a number plate light. Just a good enough reason to upgrade them. These days the LED's of eBay are cheaper in packs then to buy two new globes.
I would recommend this to anyone. Interior is a massive improvement.

Had some new rubber installed on the rear and looks like the tyre shop didn't install nut tool correctly resulting in the nuts to twist. only noticed once I had got home. Wont be going back.

All in all the wagon has treated me great! I had her up for sale due to wanting another Maloo again but after some thought I will be hanging onto this for a little while longer. The wagon just simply "Works"
I have thrown a few pics below. Some might be pretty well the same but its just some I had up for sale.
I'm great happy with her this car has come from when I picked her up to adding my own personal touch.

The thing is I get bored. With boredom I fiddle. I don't want to wreck this car fiddling with stuff I don't need to, So I picked up a new little project that's not a Holden for once. Will post her soon.

Man, that's looking really good.
I'm coming around to those wheels (not a fan of aftermarket -Grampa spec ftw) and that interior is looking top notch. And its a manual too!

I totally get what you mean with can't stop fiddling - I was as bad as you, always buying something for the car or pulling it apart to "fiddle"
- Buy a house, trust me - I'm fiddling with that full time now, I can't even be bothered washing or filling up my G6ET now, all monies go to renovations now. LED all lights in the house!

Look great, those wheels are they big brake clearance? Your fuel eco is awesome, mine is terrible with a cam, something to consider if you plan on camming and the car is daily

This is a bloody beautiful car. I'd say it would have sold pretty quick?

And that is crazy about that wheel nut!
