  1. Put a set of a mates chopped springs in today, just for shits and giggles. Sits at a nice height, but so bad to drive, the rear springs are cut that short that they do absolutely nothing. Does look good tho ahha
  2. All good mate, she probs would of got dirty on the trip home anyways.. Yeah ill post them up on here when i do lower it, too good to chuck out. Be sure to check in here from time to time to check for updates on her :rolls: Should have her rego'ed in a few weeks then lowering will follow shortly after.. then over time all the rest will come ahha

  5. Hey guys, Recently bought myself a 82' Flat front ke70. Bought it off "old fella" on here. I had been looking for a few months before i found one i was keen to buy. It has a rebuilt engine, with a 25/65 cam, new exhaust etc. Was by far the best ke i came across in my price range. I wont be going all out on this car as i have a 78 XC falcon that takes up the majority of my spare time and a 77 120Y datto that takes up the rest. At the moment the plans for the old girl are- Lower it- using pedders low springs and pedders short travel shocks. Paint it- This wont come for a while as i need to get the Xc and datto out of the garage to get the keto in to paint it. I'm tossing up between doing it white or the original cream colour, easy to work with, cheap and looks clean but is boring and common, or emerald green, harder to work with as its metallic and will require more body work to get it straight enough to look good and will cost more, but will stand out more and ive never seen a ke70 in that colour. Only time will tell which option i take. Tint it- No explanation needed. and over time might "jdm" it :lolcry: ie fender mirrors, quad lights etc Another thing i am looking into is the chrome bumpers, but i don't have a spare 600$ for a set, so i measured up the dattos bumpers and the front its the exact same size and the ugly black ones on it atm, and i can pick another 120y bumper up for next to nothing so with a bit of work might be able to get it to fit on. Which only leaves the back bumper to figure out, as the dattos one is way too small to fit. Anyways here are some photos, and ill be sure to update here with my progress :lolcry: And comments and ideas are always welcome!
