Mr and Mrs Shades are making preparations to attend You have been warned

Better, but not a boattail :D

Just for reference, here's what a boat tail SHOULD look like Stock TASTEFULLY modded

The horrendous steering wheel is cnc milled from a solid billet of unobtainium, and the car is tuned to run on unicorn piss.

wgmg: When some tasteless, misguided, overcashed buffoon 'modifies' a classic car to his 'personal style' and destroys it completely. Especially when that car happens to be YOUR FAVOURITE AMERICAN LAND YACHT EVER http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Buick-Riviera-1973-...e#ht_500wt_1154 The ONLY person stupid enough to pay 48k for that ruined, molested, HORRIBLE car would be some OTHER Lebanese cockhead with no taste. GRRRRRrrrrrRRRRRRrrrrrrrAAAAAARGH SHADY AAAANGRY

Can be done... I measured it all up :rolls: Its essentially the same as shoving a 4AGE in... Except you have to use the entire Tercel front suspension as well as the xmembers. Oh and cut a little hole in the trans tunnel for the 4WD lever linkage.

Shit. I'd be well under 200 if I didn't own a Mercedes

There's a festival for people like you... Its called Burning Man. You'll need a lot more wood, some shrooms, and several weeks separated from any form of personal hygiene product.

The only thing that stopped Little Winston was rampover angle and water. Other than that, he'd keep up with the big boys no problem. I had a set of 14" sunnies with BF Goodrich all terrains. They fit, and they tuck on full articulation :laff: I'll never forget the time we encountered a bunch of hopeless soccer dads in shiny Pajeros and Prados one of those 'tag along' 4wd tours. They were all queued up at a pissy little creek crossing... Water wasn't very deep but the exit was pretty steep and slippery. After waiting about 15 minutes, watching the useless suburbanites take turns f@$king up repeatedly, I yelled out the window: "Oi you lot want to shuffle to one side so I can get past"? *Much guffawing and hearty chuckling from the assembled clean-shoes-and-tucked-in-shirt brigade* They moved their hopelessmobiles off the track, I drove past, through the creek, up the embankment, gave them all a beep and a wave and continued on my merry way.

Been there, done that... :rolls:

Go on, you won't :rolls:

Your milkshake brings all the boys to the yard

Euro engine eh.... Hmmmmm :lolcry:

Just don't try and make it go fast. The gearbox will asplode. I'd leave it stock and jack it up... They're surprisingly capable off road :lolcry: I used to own one... His name was Little Winston and he was a fancy SR5 with the rolloverometer just like yours... Except my interior trim was various hues of brown picnic rug.

Yeah floated through a few times. There were a bunch of protesters wandering around asking people to sign a 'No nukes' petition... I told them as soon as they stop researching whales with harpoons, we'll stop mining Uranium :lolcry:

Back now... Filtering through several thousand pics. I'll post the huuuuge ones first, get them out of the way... These are courtesy 86Coupe who had a much fancier camera. Tokyo by day... There is quite a lot of it. Tokyo by night... Epic. Blade Runner much? Outer grounds of the Imperial Palace, right in the middle of Tokyo. Evidently the royal family has quite a lot of cats to swing. Shibuya

I know there's a few turbine fanciers on here... Nightmare time :lolcry:

Thermostat housing and water pump gaskets should be on the shelf in most places, but you may need to make your own paper gaskets for the smaller fittings. Take the old O-rings in with you and match them up to some new ones. Use a shitload of permatex/goo on that bypass pipe :lolcry:

The Australian ones came with oil leaks, cooling issues and cracked heads from factory

Nope, and nope. The Falcon boat anchor was unique to Australia.

A/C, Steer, Auto, Wagon = Win.

I remember when Virgin Blue used to be like that. Now they're not allowed to crack jokes because the turrrrrorrists hate freedom and Jebus.
