LXY-642

raven: yeah seems to be a pretty awesome base, no major rust issues and fairly straight apart from the hail damage and only the fron't seats seem to have tears in them haven't been looking to hard yet, but i know can get fiberglass fenders front and rear up to 2" wider then standard. brand new steering wheels, bumpers, interiors. so annoyed i didn't get one when i first wanted to lol, it's been put off for almost 6 years now, wanted one of these before i bought my vl way back on my L plates. short term plans is a 4" narrowed and adjustable beam, shortened tie rod ends to suit and 2.5" drop spindles all from airkewld. and drop the rear via the spline's to match the height i go with the front. got some plates in mind, but wont say what they are till i get them. less people know the less chance the plates can bought before i get them lol. long term plans. get front and rear air suspension kit's from airkewld and an air management kit from airbagit to have full fbss airbag kit :) put some disc brakes front and rear, keep looking at airkewld's 4 piston front wilwood kit, but i'm trying to touch the motor so that would be massive overkill which overkill is never a bad thing :) and also considering some 17x7" smoothie's from airkewld, they come with new hubcaps and all and are designed to look just like the standard wheels except in 17's and i'm a big fan of stock wheel's especially when bigger :) chobis: had the same thought when she sent the pics through of the hail stone damage lol. i have no plans to paint it so will fit a little into the hoodride/rat scene with the bit of surface rust on the roof lol. rolla'boy: whitewall is also in the short term plans, along with lower. not keen on the surfboard though. and cruising is a must :)

here's the pics.

hey everyone, Thought I might throw up my new car here also. Hopefully this ones and keeper and I can stop going through cars lol. just bought a 1967 vw deluxe 1300 beetle. unfortunately it's about another 7 weeks till i get to pick the old girl up. with only the pictures i have been sent to go by it seems to be in pretty good shape especially for the price i picked it up for. so i'm extremely happy. ment to be a 3 owner car, so that'll make me the 4th since new. last 2 owner's were female and the last one had it for the past 16 years. car was caught in a hail storm at one stage in it's live leaving a couple dings in the passanger side fenders and on the front hood luggage area. i do have some plans in mind for this car, but for starters all that i want to do is get it registered then lower it and just enjoy driving it for while to after i buy a house. will let the pictures do the talking from here. Matt

so that's why you ended up not buying my sr20 wagon? :P

phil, you and kickn5k seem to be the most serious about this, so i'll wait for one of you two to set the benchmark ;)

Very clean install bud. That would be alot of fun no doubt.

for sale :( http://www.rollaclub.com/board/topic/51173-fs-1977-ke36-wagon/

I'd love to put a twin cam head on my 5k you wanna do twin cam head conversion kits? :)

Diff is lined up now. Get it tonight and possibly the gearbox also. Just waiting for the price on the motor with everything to have it running. If the price is right may possibly even have it tonight to :) Then all I gotta do is get the car back to my place. Get the new diff shortened and drop the motor and box in. Already got a lift pump here. So grab a surge tank and an inline pump to sort out fuel. Then get the bastard running lol

lol, no worries phil. you can trust me to keep my mouth shut. just so long as ya pay note to the text i just sent ya ;)

Build's sounding sweet man. Can't wait to see it all coming together.

Looks amazing man. Good to see your all good now and straight back into it. Alot of inspiration to be had from this thread. :)

Lol. I reckon hey. Unless his planning to go silly with the 7k till his bored with it then put in something that'll need the tubs? I got no idea. Maybe phil you should say in here what you told me today.

Yeah i was thinking the same hence. I'm not gonna Bother with tubs.

Transbraked skids powered by k motors :)

I've just organized my 5k

Got a 5k coming for this :)

Could anyone tell me how much it would roughly cost to get a diff shortened and a tail shaft made up? Or recommend a place to call up to get a price? This car has to be finished to at least stage one by 5 months time so that I can take it to performance car mania in September.
