Damo's restoration project!

SLY 323 · 01-11-2011, 09:05 PM

Hey all!

Well, thought I would post up a new thread showing the Astina I purchased this weekend for $500!

She's a bit beaten up and certainly need some TLC.

Here are some pics!

Car is/has;
-1997 (Series 3)
-158,000kms
-17 in alloys
-15% tint all round
-Sunroof
-Sideskirts
-Lowered

Plans for the car aren't much but to get her back to her former glory!

haha

nice, better buy than mine, would love a sunroof - one day.

mikey_something · 01-11-2011, 10:59 PM

Sunroof alone for $500 is a bargain. So much envy.
