things that i need to do..

Ive got to cut the rust out of the bonnet or get a new onerolleyes.gif (no luck so far).

then see if i can fix the problem of the bonnet not laching over.

then see if i can find any other problems and go for a blue slip.

then put some clear on it.

 

then later GZE timebiggrin.gif

yep thats me :S

I was going to say that car looked a little familiar, nice work on the youtube vid, came across it the other day.

 

I like what you've done with the grill, in the process of doing something similar with mine as it was missing some of its teeth. What did you use for the mesh part/ how did you put it together?

  • Author

the grill is factory, people refer to it as the honeycomb grill and apparently it only come out on the 79 KE35

Well that would be wrong.

The grille is factory and it came out in the early KE35's.(1975-1977) There were NO KE35's in 1979 in Australia. And if there were they would have had a late KE3x grille. In late 1978 the KE35 was replaced with the KE55s.

 

Stay tuned next week for another history lesson children.

Well that statement is wrong in its self..

I said

apparently it only come out on the 79 KE35

If I had said

it defiantly 100% only came out on the 79 KE35

then your right to say I'm wrong.

 

Now

There were NO KE35's in 1979 in Australia.

Would you like a pic of my build plate?

As this is a 1979 KE35.

 

Thanks for playing, Craig

Sure I'll go for a pic of the build plate. I'll take your vin too if you wanna give it to compare it to the dadtbase
