The rims are already on. The issue is, they are old, as they were lying for some time and are of 13".
Anyways, I myself haven't driven the car since ages. Haven't got it compound polished as well. Am stuck in too many other issues.
Par jo hai, bohatoun se behtar hai Alhamdolillah!

2500-3000 would be charged for cleaning I suppose. The painter called me a few days back and informed me that the money has been left as he "forgot" to charge for it. lol

The shop is Waqar Light House in I&T Center G-10/4. Near Lillah CNG Station.

And thanks for the kinds words bro.

Yes... He has been working on all my cars since long.

Rims have been installed on the car but they are rims by name only.
The budget for this car was finished therefore temporary rims were installed and she will run on them unless new budget is allocated for the rims. For now, they are fine.

It has been some time since the car started rolling on its wheels again and Alhamdolillah no major problems/issues have been recorded so far. There was some issue with the brakes which I noticed in the very beginning which was resolved by the mechanic. The car was sent for another compound polish session and one is remaining now.

In less than 3 weeks time, that car had undergone a complete overhaul. Suspension, engine, denting, painting, interior etc. were taken care of and I think the result that is in front of you isn't that bad...

I have learned a lot while I was working on this project from gurus like Xulfiqar Bhai, Sir. VCheng, Aamir Bhai and many others who have contributed to this thread and have guided me all along. I am also grateful to all the friends and PW family members who have appreciated, commented and criticized in this thread and made this project moving.

The quality of pics was increasing but the likes were decreasing. Strange!

B.T.W. MASHALLAH. Excellent efforts bro. Some real hard work and dedication shown!
Get some real big wheels and start rollin' the ride. Best Of Luck!!

Yes maybe because every new picture made the members go faint, reducing the number of people conscious enough to like.

Thanks for liking.
