Unfortantly i have to say moon....i got some 13 inch Hollywood flippers a few years ago, but picked them up in the us....probably run u to about 400-500 to get them to you...no other options i know about really...

What they for?

Cheers

gonna whack em on the delivery ( EK) I'm thinkin about losing the back wheel under some spats then running flippers up front on 14 inch rims. Shes due for a coat of paint so i thought I'd give it a new look, maybe a couple of licks on the roof of the A pillar and put the sunvisor back on

Sounds good...some guy in Queensland sells fiberglass rear bubble skirts hat kicks arse on the stock flat spats...

Thanx Mikey

A local guy reckons he can do me some spats for $30 each, so I'm gonna give him a go, if I can't find some kool caps cheap I,ll stick with the moons, I need to get rid of the 15" off the back though, it makes the car too tall. heres a pick of the goodies I sold to buy some caps (you dont see these very often)

I sold these carbs and cover for $300 to stuart one of the rocker guys in Perth, they need a rebuild but I don't think the price is too rude, there gettin hard to find

Mai ki nice job on the van it just needs lowering a foot so I dont get a nose bleed

I don't think the spats work on the van Leebo. It creates too much of a brick look, especially with the flat black paint. It might look better with a different colour. What colour are you planning on painting it?

Just lower it a heap. That'll make it look shitloads better.

BTW. Are you up in Perth over Christmas at all? I'm heading back home. We should catch up.
