Almost been 10 years, still at it 🤣

Oh that is fantastic ❤️

You can't see it's...ugh... not so healthy side, so we'll stick to the propaganda view for a while. Steve, you are a legend for the photo & making it look like that! :)

HEY it's about time I sanded it back to metal and started this process all over again 😂

Cannot believe after 10 years, this thread is still powering on. My god. 10/10

Sheeet. Ahh well, she'll be all fixed up in no time

hahah thanks for the comments :) Still the daily driver, clicked up 15,000 kms now days. ^_^

Like a blast from the past ^_^ Little blue beast lives on as my daily, end of this week she will have clicked over 10,000 kms ! Sir Med-Man saved my ass a few months ago discovering a hellish intermittent fault - wet weather, car would not start. Elec Fuel pump would not kick in. Any guesses ? lol. Wet weather I would have the front demister on with the blower fan on low. Turns out the variable fan speed resistor Red/White wire was mistaken for a solid earth. Sooo... everytime the fan was on 1, the car would not start. Car broke down in my driveway 5 odd times over the years.. once running, was ok, just not enough to start the wincam as my brother calls it. Apart from that *TOUCH WOOD* it's been a turn key reliable daily that sings to 8-thousand quite happily. I won't be selling her any time soon. Been collecting too many new bits. Maybe part of her will be up for sale though.. he he he :devil: #itneverends

Man, this is looking.. Amazing :o ! Must pop around one day and see it in the flesh :)

Usual 6 monthly update! Car is fantastic, lives undercover most of its life battling discharged voltage syndrome. I might take it out this weekend, its very over due for it. Might even clean her too. Next September.. this thread, 10 years old. the hell :o

Hey Guys ! I'm chasing a RHR Ke70 Tail Light in the brizzy area, i need one asap ! Just leave me a message here / pm me your number and ill contact you straight away :) Cheers! Ted

This is wild ^_^

Ahhhhh fantastic. 1081 km's - Tue Feb 5 12:30 am BP servo on the northside of brisbane, Blue car splutters to a halt. -_- Thanks bosche for an expensive, noisy and now non-pumping fuel pump. Thought i'd put some fuel in her whilst i was.. at a fuel station. Drank about 24L of BP's finest, 330 km's. Much better than the 280 kms to 42L last time.. lol. Oh well, maybe this car is better suited to a museum. It looks good on the back of a tow truck. lol.

Phil I'm chasing a RHR tail light; you have one i might be able to grab? Not too fussed on how good it is, as long as it's not smashed. T'

9:21 am 21/01/2013 Blue car in my driveway. With rego. Winning 8D . A huge-thankyou to Mr Shades for getting said lump of 30 year old car 1/2 way across the country. Cheers dude :) 640 km's on the clock. :thumbsup:

Hahah Cheers Guys ^_^ Lets see. Car has almost 500 km's on the clock now. Tailshaft needs to be balanced / replaced with a 1 piece. God dam the 2 piece tailshafts are trash at the best of times. After a long wait at a set of lights, about 30 seconds later the car feels as if it gets vapor lock, coughs and splutters for a second then comes good. Apart from these 2 little.. Issues, the car has been faultless and drives really, really nicely. It's not the fastest car around, but it feels like it would be good for a high 15, low 16. Just have to find out oneday What else have I been doing on it. Installed a stereo into it today and some rear speakers. I have taken photos, but need a computer that takes an SD card.

I'm too tired to type any more. I know i've missed a few things. lol. The car has just turned into a 'How much stuff can I fit into this car, make it look totally stock, keeping to the blue-car OCD standard' ^_^
