This is my AE71
this is the car the day i got it, already 4AGED
i got 8 defects in my first 48 hours of driving it and decided to change some shit.
one of the main defects was rust. so i ground it back and this is the shit i found.
by the time i cut it out this is all the roof i had left in some places...
dad and i cut and fabricated some metal and i had a go at my first real bit of welding with a mig welder. getting the settings right for such thin metal was a pain, but once it was dialed right it was basically point and shoot :)
once the rust and stuff had been cut out it was time to be get the spray putty on and primer.
the next difficult thing was to choose a colour. it was a toss up between a gun metal grey or an xr6 purple.
just a little colour tester :)
i swapped my 15x9 shakatons for some 15x7's 3 piece wheels (not sure of what type :/) and some cash my way
the first weekend we rolled out from under the tarp :)
stickerbombed chingwing
drift kicker ;)
roof racks
and finally as the car sits today
ive got some other plans for the car. i want to get a chin spolier, some 15x8 wheels, maybe meshies or somethng similar to watanabes. and just whatever i can do to try and make it unique
