  1. These things are great - an underestimated car for sure!
  2. until the m engine of doom spits a head!!!
  3. Unfortunately nothing is really legal here in SA without massive expense.
  4. Rt142 Corona. Cheap as because people think they are crap. The motor aint that slow, probably comparable to a 4age bigport in power. Must be manual though... the auto ones chew the juice and are slow. I have 3 of them, 2 manny and 1 auto. Could probably get one for $1500 in good nick ;)
  5. yeah but its more like MUNT over there ;) could use that term on here
  6. It is because the term m.i.n.t has been overused and used for cars which are far from m.i.n.t. Hell I wouldn't call this m.i.n.t - clean yes but I'm betting my first born on it being resprayed at some point in time ;) Nice pick up - AE71 CSX is the top of the pops!!!
  7. possibly couple months at most
  8. This. Especially when it was acquired at say a quarter of the price of others. Yeah it may end up being 'race use only' but for the money I couldn't even have bought a half decent Go Kart :blush: :dance:

    I agree. When my brother in law were in it with the top down we could have been looked upon as... well you know. But I am a bit taken by the car due to its handling etc. That and it was an absolute bargain!

    saw Nickyboy yestdy evening on Wattlebury. I was in the black MX5... did not wave as I figured you wouldn't recognise me ;)
  14. As above am needing some shed space. Need to store a car for a short perios. Car is complete and will not need to be worked on just stored. Happy to pay for the privilege. 0430 181 590 or via pm let me know if you have anything
  15. Gumtree is hands down the best! Just have to have patience to wade past aforementioned northern suburbians

  17. Oh dear.....

    I had a chat with said old bloke a few months ago. He told me he has a list a page long of potential purchasers!! As for that old lady, I know about that one too, she has my number for when she is ready :blush: Bought brand new by her and owned til this day. Still has plastic on sunvisors, blankets on seats. Was involved in a small bingle recently for which I donated parts to repair
  21. check your connections on the flasher unit.... mine were slow to flash on my KE11. Shoved the plugs back on harder/better and they flashed correctly. Maybe clean the terminals too, remember these things are near 40 years old
  22. I'd just be happy with that car combo.... Who needs A/C when you have a TE27 with 4AGE? You're cool enough already :blush:
  23. Please put up a couple of pics of your Panno. I'm dying to see it and that display pic just isnt big enough

    I saw a white KE15/17 Sprinter Saturday night go past my place in the hills.
  25. You would probably need to use the cross member from the RA65 also as that will have the right mounts for the 22RE. The Carby to EFI issue will be your biggest concern. As you have a donor car there though the only thing you would require is the time and effort really. If for whatever reason you feel you wish to sell the 22RE car let me know as I would be interested in it for parts for my 22RE Corona Wagon. :y: PM me if need be. I'm in SA also.
