    Mate, everything you've done is unreal, your attention to detail is outstanding. The new wheels look good, and I never thought I'd say this, but I like the van better in the pic above with the GTS wheels.

    I guess I've been on this forum for so long now I'm just used to every van having GTS wheels.

    It does sit nice with the big ones on it though..... and I love the engine bay..... I'll just go now....
    Vans.... This is the 2nd time round the block, 40 years later! talk about turning back the clock!

    Nope wont be putting GTS rims on mine... I don't dislike them... well only if they are widened on chrome rims but not for me. 8" Alloy Jelly beans for me but I think you have done a wonderful job getting it to sit like that on those rims. Well Done.

    The rear suspension has 2" lowering block, that's it. The Kingswood was painted with that quick ageing stuff from Bunnings, a chick owns it. She did a great job, Antelope colour under that fake rust somewhere
