67Rolla-Ken

OK, here we go! Stripping Car pt1 Stripping Car pt2 Stripping Car pt3 Stripping Car pt4 (some priming!!) I couldn't be bothered sorting thru them, so... sorry about the amout of pics :hmm: If anyone wants to see bigger copies of any of the pics let me know.

Sorry Rad Rolla, I completely missed your question :hmm: Rims cost $1100 with rubber. Only 5.5 wide, but thats plenty for me.

I have resized the pics, but there are well over a hundred and that only covers progress upto Easter Saturday! Where should I put them online??

Payed $280 for both guards, bonnet, drivers door, rear view mirror, and trim :hmm:

OK, locking in my final answer :hmm: ... I'm going white with red. I have changed to red cos my current interior is red and my plates are red on white and reds the Toyota colour!!

I saw a red ae86 2 door sedan in Silence of the Lambs the other night.

That looks beautiful!!! EDIT: Love the stance :D

After having a pearl white car, "easy touchups" is the main thing I was after with this respray. That pearl was a pain in the ass! I'm still not sure how it will look... I think with the interior I am planning (white vinyl with orange piping, + orange stripes matching stripes on outside of car) it will look quite striking.

Yeh, I'm stoked I managed to track down the trim. I don't want to go an off white because it's too common for the Ke10. I want semi-original with a bit of a race look.

Sorry folks I'm too stuffed to sort out the pics at the moment. I have a week until I buy my paint and I'm re-thinking my colour choice. What do we think of a brilliant (Arctic) white, with one large orange stripe with orange pin-stripes either side? l HH l sorta thing, but up over the passenger side (so it goes over the scoop, which will be positioned above the carby, on the mat black second bonnet). EDIT: The main reason for the re-think is I now have the chrome trim that goes down the sides, therefore I can make her look more original. With her being the oldest, registered & running Rolla on here, that might be a good idea.

Cheers. I have decided not to put flares on mine... ran out of money, and respray is happening currently.

Make friends with a good panelbeater...

KE10 T-Shirt

Have you seen the ones on ebay??

Got new front guards, thanks Scott, all fitted well and looking great. Should be finnished in about 3 weeks. Also, I now have a second bonnet, which is to be mat black with a scoop above the carby. :D

I don't know if this is new but I just found it. I couldn't believe it could be possible to drive to the north pole! Top Gear Polar Special Just follow the 9 parts thru if you can be bothered.

It looks great, but (in my opinion) nothing remotely like an AE86..

I upgraded from a Soarer to the KE10 :cool: They are great.... but expensive to keep. A timing belt kit is ~$1600 (not fitted) and they are too technical to work on at home. I loved my Soarer but $11,000 maintenance in one year....

This is getting worse every time I look :cool: My Rolla is in the process of a bare metal respray, I would be shattered if someone hit her soon after! Good luck with the repair.

Well, after we stripped back the inch thick bog (not exagerating), we found the front of the passenger gaurd was pushed in and rusted thru. Both are stretched, beaten and too thin to weld. Could be fixed if I had an extra month to spend on repairing them, which I don't have, or was willing to build them out of bog again (not much point going bare metal then doing that). Soooo...... I'm kinda screwed at the moment.

Things aren't going well :cool: She is back to bare metal, but the front gaurds are trashed. The rest is relatively OK for a 41 yr old car. I need some guards urgently!!!

I had an ex show car. It was a show car, then I pulled the $10k stereo out, then it was rear-ended. :jamie:

No idea... But I drive past a nice metallic blue KE20 every day. It lives on Wanaping Rd Kenwick.

I could win!! :jamie: If I've changed my bushes by the time this is on, I'll consider it.

I've had 2 of them. Indestructable!!!! If it has plastic either side of the numberplate it's a 86 if not, a 85 (correct me if i'm wrong).
