OK updates..

The twin chrome air filters are growing on me...

 

New data plate ordered (old on was scungy). Gearbox mount ordered.

 

Will remove the fan on the front and fit a thermo to the rad... less drag :jamie:

 

Buying some fuel hoses, and wire loom conduit tonight.

Need to order new rear quarter rubbers.

Need new heater tap & hoses

Ordering a red metal fuel filter and a red metal rad overflow container off Ebay.

that engine bay wil never stay that white :jamie: it is going to get dirty, a true k engine is messy :yes: hehe, looks so bloody good thou!

Considering its all pretty much new, it shouldnt get dirty (except road grime) unless it wasn't put together right, but I'm sure it was :jamie:

I can build a k engine that wont leak its not hard, Ken the car is looking good, I want a set of twin carburetors like yours.

Thanks guys. As the car is to be a Sunday driver keeping it clean shouldn't be too hard.

Updates???

Geeez this has come on since I last checked !

Very tidy man, a credit to you. :D

Finally got the engine running yesterday!! Sounds mad XD

 

Thanks for your help Matt (Madrolla). I got a video but I'm having trouble uploading it to youtube or facebook :fuzz:

 

Now all I have to do is: clean up the engine again, put the rad in, fill the gearbox with oil, make up a new throttle linkage to connect to the twins, fit the fuel tank and hoses, get the gearbox sensor modified to drive the new gauges, finish the last bits of paint, put the windows in, drill new holes for the badges (including bootlid), fit the KE70 disc break setup, fit the front panels, fit the new gauges, put the seats & trim in, fit the subs into the boot, put the stripes on, get the new deck & alarm fitted (still deciding where to go??)... I'm sure I've miss lots of other stuff :D

Put the trim on one side today. Looks sweet :y:

 

My drivers side parker is stuffed. :bash: I'll need to replace the entire housing and chrome surround, not an easy thing to find for a 67...

Car is on hold for 6 months...... but guess who has a 4AGE with Supra 5 Speed on the way! :y:
