Hey guys im new here so yeah
I bought a VN, Cant remember what model cause once I bought it, I towed the car straight away to the mechanics, cause it wouldnt start, Bought it for $450 and wanting to make it look tough with ceptors, lowering it, tinted windows, drop tank etc..
I will get photos up once I get my car back from mechanics and post so on about it...
Car hasnt been driven btw for 5 years and has 182,000 cars on it.. The petrol hose was hard like a rock so had to get that changed and theres one scratch on it and paint is tough..
Use rekon it was good deal for $450 ?

Up to a grand? Depending on how much work you can do yourself, and just how much is wrong with it, it could be well more than $1000.
Keep in mind that fitting a droptank needs to be done carefully so that it remains street legal. It needs to have a pressure vent and an overflow to the outside of the car, and must be fillable from outside the car.
Welcome to the club, and I hope you stick around for a long time to come. |
