You can probably guess what I’m going to do here

It could be the egg mobile! But... unfortunately for the bacon mobile I am going to use it’s gearbox and louvres and headlight protectors and sell it as an automatic bacon cruiser

I actually edited the picture after you said that haha. Yeah it’s called the silver slug. ?
Got the silver slug home. Drives well. I’m really happy with this as a starting point for a 240





Also looking forward to picking up the beast from @heavy_dd

240s are cool.

Yep, “057” is your paint code. And the 0 is important as I once found when I told the paint match place “57”...which he couldn’t find. Had no problem when I said “057”. It’s a Nissan-Datsun colour since these cars were assembled locally in Clayton up until about 1989.

Didn’t know that thanks mate and yeah love the 057 and red pinstripe and grey interior. Also the chrome trim suits the colour
carnut222;c-141774 wroteThe Virgos really suit it!
Cheers mate I agree. I will be reconditioning a set of Gemini’s to put on this car. But for now these virgos looks great and have good tyres. Can’t go wrong wth Virgo wheels on a two forty ?
