  1. In other words make it look shit?

     

    A real two door the doors are actually longer hence the pilar sitting further back... Why not buy a pano if that's what you want..

     

    If you wanted to weld up the rear doors why go to the hassle of changing doors... Just weld up what's there...

     

    Either way it will still look like an eyesore and a half assed job..... And you would still need to engineer it which costs ... And de-value your car...

     

    Why not just sell it and get an ae86?

     

    Just makes no sense what so ever... Each to their own

  2. Not worth it don't even contemplate a 2 door conversion.... It will cost far too much money in engineering let alone materials and mods to make it happen...

    Door mods, seatbelt point relocation , moving the whole pillar back... , etc etc etc

    Would be much cheaper getting a DX imported....

     

    Tubed front ends for "crisp clean look" it just doesn't happen... Looks much cleaner stock... There are a lot of 70's that get good lock with the right LCA choice, steering arms and other mods without gutting the wheel arches...

  3. True as you are... I narrowed it down and found my colour seems the later ke11s in off white (Australian spec) were painted in a colour called sirrius white with the paint code being T-1391 which seems to be an exact match for my colour.. Was mixed up by a de beers mixing system and seems to be spot on as I got 100ml mixed up to do some spot touch ups to see how close it was and can't tell where the spot touch ups were done so I'm happy and now have my colour for when I get ready to spray the car up..

  4. Hey guys I been trying to find a paint code on my ke11 but it seems they don't exist.. Mine is the original off white colour they come in but have had no luck finding a code.. And after racking the brains of many paint shops they tell me the only option is to get it colour matched by eye.. The only label attatched to the car say it's a dulon white lusterlife white acrylic enamel with no code... Has anyone had any luck finding the original code or to I bite the bullet and hope that the painter is a good colour marcher as I want the car to look as original in colour as possible

  5. Welcome Ken, you will find some info here and also lot of people willing to help although there are more specific avenues for your model there is still alot of info here also having had an ae86 myself I'm sure you will have alot of fun with it... Yours still 4ac or has it been 4age converted already?

  6. Hey cool pics Mick! It was nice to meet you guys as well. I was over the moon with all the compliments the car received. It made the 9 long years worth it.

    I seen your ke20 there that thing is insane very very clean big props to you for all the work put into it.. Who did the body work on it looks really neat... I only hope I can get my ke11 that clean

  7. ay yea i wouldnt mind, I'm only located in the kogarah area. it would be good to go out with a group instead of going solo like i usually do.

    Where would be a good central place that everyone would want to meet up I don't mind trying to organize something but best to find out what's most convenient for every one

  8. I have for sale 2 x 3 pull beer taps mounted on a stainless steel body with drip tray (these are exactly as you would see in your local pub... Good for a home set-up... For those who know their taps these are lancer pacific branded taps in operational condition when removed from current setup taps 5 of the taps still have branded tabs I.e. Tooheys new, VB, Hahn light, blue tongue and Carlton draught as per forum rules I'll advertise it at $250ono but feel free to offer.. Located in blacktown area NSW prefer pick up but will look into posting if no interest here I will advertise them on eBay - matt.

  9. I always ask myself the same thing.... Few and far between in NSW almost seems like you could pick one up anyway of the week in SA... On another note the ke18? Looks like a pretty good restorer/ project

  10. Just spotted a ke16/18 on eBay it comes up if you search ke10 headline being ke10 wagon... Red one, looks like a good restorer $90 no reserve I think.. Located Murray bridge SA... I'd bs keen myself but in NSW... I'd post a link but I'm on iPhone... Maybe someone can find it and pop the link in here
