Wheel boyz were great to deal with. This was in 2009.

Are you looking for 15" or bigger diameter? Bolt on or pin drive?

Hi mate,

Well I'm not quiet sure who's kit it was/is, the guy purchased it off didn't know, all he could tell me was it came from the original builder who lived down Mornington (VIC) way, if anyone knows the car or the original builder, I'd luv to get in contact with him to ask a couple of questions.

It has 15's on it, (I don't know what the wheels are, someone on here may know them?) I'm undecided about 15,17 or 18's, with my plans I'm really going to need bigger brakes than what the 15's can fit, but as I said I'm really not sure.

My story is I spent the last 3 years building the ute below, over the last 6 months I'd lost the enthusiasm to finish it (engine & wiring) or even go drag racing again.

So I sold it to one of our customers and went Cobra hunting, I wanted something already registered in Vic (couldn't be bothered with the whole build thing again) the rest I wasn't fussed about as I want to modify most of it.
