i bet the 50 would pull me up as i pulled out the drive way and go defect on it :fuzz: haha but a good though... i do like sturrin the cops :yes:

haha need to play around with the rack.it 'was' adjustable.WD40 the shit out of it.still wont move so ill let it sit a while

i change my mind more than a woman.after not getting enough interest ive decided to keep it now...looking at others build threads its given me some inspiration. had a look through the shed at all the bits lying around from previous tenants if found roof racks/basket and a bonnet shield :dance: they look stupid but i like them.as for paint I'm going to rattle can it. too much trouble trying to match the paint so I'm goin white.shall see how it turns out.

looks like a ke30 grill. nice buy :blush:

on that note its time to part her out. loss of interest and the need to spend my money else where. it sucks but its pointless it sitting in the shed taking up room. so if you guys are after anything let me know

well lads, shes up for sale.

yea i got my licence back.but the daily commonwhore is eatin up my funds at the moment. and havin a misses that lives in maclaren vale doesnt help with the time factor. found out today my pop has all the tools i need to get this painted :D shaaaweeeet and my work schedule is changing next week so ill have 1 free day a week to get started just need to track down someone that can get the paint colour i want- the original green :D i know its horrible but I'm only planning a shut door respray.just need it clean and a Q does anyone have probs with fuel pumps packing up regularly? just put a new one in recently and it doesnt seem to be working anymore.tried starting it recently to no provale

just some more pics to show how much i havent done :P

ok so its been a wile since i been on here sooo 1 good to see it finished ;)looks a treat :D 2 fkn useless c**ts can't drive and cause us to crash fingers crossed for ya bud

excuse me sir but we need a pic of her cute ass now shes painted ;) nice work bud :rocknroll:

ok so i got just over 3 weeks till i get my licence back and ive done nothin... so i went out 2nyt and fiddled round for a bit just need some help from my mate to get it finished off tho a weekend of work will get it on the road so... wen i find some free time ;)

ok so ive organise a guy to help finish the body work for a carton of pales :D then paint and engine mounts and oil pan seal then we ready to roll...a :D only just over 4 months till Mr Licence comes home yewwwwwww keen to hit the streets with this dirty ol' girl shell be dumped with black 16s in that gross rolla light green(i love it :P) (if i get it painted)if i do ill be keeping the original colour plus some sparkle...keep an eye out for her on adelaide roads in the next 6 months or so

hey guys just poping through to let you know that ive not done much recently. i have got a nice set of 16's lined up though :D

so ive hit a road block... in the form of lack of inspiration... and time... so all i have to do is smooth off the body work then paint and then on to mechanical-so i don't really have much to do. on the other hand my plans may change. my sister has written off her 88 rolla (4age) that I'm now wrecking...(ive started a new topic for it) and i keep looking under that bonnet and keep thinking it might be time for a heart transplant.... but that will just adds more headaches... but food for thought ;)

coming along just gota smooth off the rust repairs and it will be ready for paint... when i get some more $$$ then do the engine mounts and fix the oil leak lower it a little and get the stereo sorted then id say complete id like to do the interior but thats an extra $500 i don't have haha seat covers will hide it for now ;)

she lives :D turns out it was the fuel pump once it warms up it doesnt skip a beat.. not 1 misfire!!! but it is blowing a bit of smoke but not really bothered got to work on some more of the rust so its slowly getting closer

ok so I'm thinking the fuel pump isnt fine ill update when i get a chance to change it over

hmm found some more rust (above passenger feet) this is gona be interesting to fix......mite just cut it out, rust converter, then liquid nails a piece of sheet metal over the hole haha :jamie: its on the inside... i found it when i was having trouble starting it.... slammed the drivers door shut... then when i cooled off i jumped back in the car to see a pile of flakes on the floor mat hahaha hmmm :bash:

just spotted these (item 5 the t18 13" whiteys) http://www.rollaclub.com/board/index.php?showtopic=43828 think they'd look good on the 55. pity they are in WA though

sad to see another rolla wont see the road again.. :( but at least its going to a good cause :D

the bowl was empty when i cracked it open (before i tried to start it today) so i pulled out the needle and cleaned it out didnt seem to have any blocks changed one of the fuel hoses that seemed a bit dodgey i am in no way mechanicly minded when it come to the practical side of things... damn it

ok so turns out the fuel pump is fine, filter is fine. I'm thinking the carby might need some attention.. but i wouldnt have the faintest idea what to look for. pulled the top off and checked a couple things they suggest in the workshop manual... all seemed ok but it still wont start. not even a cough. unless i pour some juice down the carby... feeling a bit like.... :( i think i need to call in some favours from mates haha

id say the ke70s would make the engine sit higher by the looks of them. id say the earlier ones would match in better. they were an option at the shop but wasnt sure if they would work thanks for your help mate

ok so just picked up a new fuel filter,fuel pump,2m of new hose for fuel lines,oil pan gasket,oil,oil drip tray and some clips (another $150 gone) when i got home from the shops i had a message on face book from the previous owner telling me the fuel pump is near new...... damn it!!! i must say it doesnt look very new but hey. so if this doesnt work then i guess ill be pulling the carby apart... really hope i don't have to.. but if i do i guess ill learn something new :D also ive found that i can't get hold of the R/H engine mount..."discontinued" can still get the L/H which is the one i need but want to do them both... hmmm
