  1. Got stuck into it lastnight, change chrome bumpers, rear tail lights, front head lights, painted headlight surrounds and installed them. And emptied the interior. Now to strip the trim and dash out tonight and start moving across the interior
  2. so yeah i lost interest in this ke70. dunno what happened but it got stripped down to this point and i got distracted building a motorbike. so lastnight i bought another KE70 lol. this one has 130,000km on it, box is tight, it runs, and is already white (factory) but its got some rust (I'm going to leave most of it as it adds character lol). So now I'm going to just move everything across from the old one to this, interior is blue but theres not much left in there. So i can either go brown or blue interior.
  3. Going to get stuck into sanding the shit out of this shell on the weekend as its in acrylic and needs completely removing before i go further. once thats done i can attack the cancer (rust) and start prepping the shell (got to remove all the doors so theres not that much to do luckily.
  4. 612 Autoworks hire out their workshop and tools. https://www.facebook.com/612autoworks
  5. so i lost motivation once i started pulling the white car down....decided it was a lost cause and cut my loses. It was rolled back into the storage shed. but yesterday i bought another ke70 1983 model. has a 4kc in it with a new head gasket, leads, tacho dash brown interior and is painted in undercoat grey. this is a perfect car to rebuild from (minus some crappy graphiti on the roof liner and on some other trim, in perminent pen (hopefully orange spray gets that off). All locks are bust so i'll be swapping doors over or locks and handles
  6. thanks bro all sorted :) just need to spend alot of man hours getting it stripped then back together again..
  7. We've just started on rebuilding my car. - full hail damage repair - engine replacment with a low km engine - maybe. if ive got the time - clutch replacment - if i have the time - wheel refurb - starter motor reco. - make front coilovers - change lca/knuckles - respray - club reg Started stripping the car lastnight
  8. So its been a looong time since i did anything with the old girl. Luck hasnt been on her side after being destroyed by that christmas hail of 2011. Damage - Front window smashed, roof dinted, bonnet dinted, boot dinted, guards dinted, headlight surround broken. chrome trims dinted. So a write off really.... But were going to fix it. As we have another spare brown one were going to use as much parts from it as we can (that also copped hail but no where near as much damage as my white one. So lastnight finally got some motivation and started. Removed the front end (all panels, lights bumpers, lip, bonnet etc) So the plan of attack is. - strip the car - remove roof lining - fix roof dints - replace bonnet - replace boot - replace doors - replace front window - replace interior with brown dash, seats, carpet, trims, etc etc. - replace suspension (front and modify coilovers to fit) - replace clutch - reco starter - respray car - club register car As usual we've got only 1 month to build a car...
  9. BC coilovers and camber adjusted in. bit of guard work and its all good. We had alot of rust repairs we had to do to this. remake sections around door hinges etc but all good now.
  10. Whats your address and i'll mail you some?
