Gday Fella's
I could be on a big fantasy trip here but I keep thinking of a classic as a daily driver. I do about 500k's a week in and around the city looking after my sparky business. I currently have an FG egas ute, its great but I keep looking at classics and wanting one. The sound, the look and just to be a bit different. I love the XA-XC model utes. Are they all noisy inside (I know this sounds girly but I am on the phone a lot)? How is it to park etc compared to a modern ute / car with the smaller windows etc? I havent driven an older car (except my Escort but thats completely different) so have no idea on how they drive. I had a plan to get one & restore a ute enough to have it comfortable (not for show standard), install some recaro's, better sound system, blue tooth kit, reverse sensors (I park all over the city all of the time daily), security & central locking, and maybe even a EFI windsor or gas a tidy clevo, bigger brake kit, update the suspension parts etc etc. Thanks for your input. Any opinions?
