These rims will be replaced with taurusses this month

IÂ´ll make some new pictures when itÂ´s clean

Philip

why do you want to replace these rims? i think they look pretty cool and they match to the hausser kit.

Which bodykit is that?

yes it is indeed a hausser kit. By the way this is a 480 Turbo from 1988, it was a real bargain and although I already owned a 480, I couldnÂ´t resist

Also have an 1989 Turbo wich is a bit more luxurious (airco, abs, leather etc etc) and has a lot of power

but looks like crap on the outside. loads of bodywork needs to be done.

edit: I donÂ´t really like these rims myself, I think they donÂ´t look sporty enough to match the hausser kit.

Woohoo, finally got around to setting up a photobucket account and taking some pictures of my little bit of homeland. Just a bog-standard ES 1.7, nothing special, but I like it.

From the back in front of our house:

And from the front:

Ah and in response to guitarfanatics question: I think it looks nice with black bumpers, but I also prefer the orange indicator covers, so don't listen to me
