Quick update on my car. Got my coilovers a week ago. Box said it would lower it about 5,5 cm. When I installed them and put it on all fours again, it was more like a 12-14 cm drop.

This is how it was:

And after installing the coilovers:

I'm driving on my old set of steelies at the moment since I still need to refurbish my alloys 15" wheels. I also bought a complete interior from the luxury edition of this model, which I can pick up tomorrow.

I almost got a 1989 Isuzu Imark RS with the 4xe1 dohc engine but it has no interior and it needs a hood, bumpers, fenders, And both rear quarter windows, engine and ggearbox mounts and alot more! the upside is it still has the original alloys as well as a rare irmscher grill and oh and its a sunroof optioned car! i got pics of it somewhere......

Mattias that is one clean looking w123,nice to see one whitout the chrome wheelarch rust collectors. Is it a diesel? 

Nope, 230E, 0,8 mm milled head and 276 degree Dbilas camshaft, shame that I missed a good deal on an AMG (or Brabus? don't remember) exhaust header last winter.......

I've read about a Jaguar club in Northern California called "Sons of Lucas," for obvious reasons.

Man oh Man!    I have always wanted a VC ute!  My first car here in the USA was a 1966 Valiant, which is the same body as your VC.  Once I saw that it had been done as a ute, I've needed one ever since.   Great cars!
