thanks man!!!! much appreciated!! your cars are great inspiration! little more work. this section is gonna take a fair bit of work but the first bit is done!
-
more rust repairs!! crap cut out!! notice the rust behind it in the wheel well?? well wire grinded it and put a shite load of rust converter on it! then stitched up!
-
hmmmmmmmm dunno ryan. what about it don't you reckon you can do??? if its the welding then sure i'll do that for you! as for the rest i'll 'help' you if you like! more piccies! fully stiched in! quite happy even the taillight goes straight back in! swiss cheese anyone?? gonna go an tackle this one next!!
-
hmm didn't think of that! what do installists do when they put that cover and perspex over em??? there wouldn't be any air flow there. so maybe thats a myth?
-
you in adelaide?? anyways umm paradise motors. blacktop would be a bit more. but the price is coming down on these motors! and i got mine about 9 months ago. blacktop?? you going na??
-

-
i got my silvertop package for 1100 that was complete motor + crappy FWD trans also computer and loom. only 70 000 on the motor.
-
sounds good ryan and it'd be about the right size too!!! ken a couple of straps would be dodge i reckon cos it'd be flexible. when you hit bumps and stuf the tyre will move around and stuff?? or have i got you wrong??
-
hmmm good idea but i reckon you'd need to seal the top better! road dirt and moisture will find its way up and possibly ruin the mdf.... i didn't even think of doing it like that!!! how would you strap it in???? i was gonna use a wagons strpping system or maybe rig something up from a ute?? you know how they wind em down??
-
oh also have you considered intalling your amps behind the rear seat?? this way they are totally hidden all you'd need to do is put a sheet of metal or mdf behind it first to cover the fual tank! your rear seat are spring loaded yeah?? kinda mount the amps so tehy'll sit in the cavities!
-
i was gonna use a grinder and cut slots into it! then from there you can grab a hammer and bash and bend it in flat! trim the exces and reweld. or just cut it out completely and weld some sheet metal in...... or not even weld the metal in a couple of bolts or a shiteload of big pop rivets!
-
heyman i'm gonna do that same thing with my wheel well!! if you get started on it soon can you please do step by step photos??? i'm a bit scared to get started on it myself!!!
-

-
bit of an update! wasn't happy with the way my cressida struts looked! not really stock enough! so i stripped em down and sand blasted and powdercoated em! also decided to throw the discs and order some new slotted items! calipers redone in a better tougher gold paint! hubs redone sandblasted stuff! stuff done
-
they didn't convert the colling system hence why the firewall was cut. if you can get a 16v in there you can get a 20v in there if its done right

$300??? thats cheap as! Tint a car charge 500 ish for midnight express but thats 10 year guarentee

ok i looked into this. i got quoted for a full bottom end rebuild set up for turbo. so acid dip machining of everything balancing brass bushings etc and 4agze forged pistons was gonna cost $1100.
