My Four Door Ke26 Wagon

[timbo26]

hey all, my name is tim

this is my ke26 wagon, its powered by a 3T with twin solex carbs, a set of headers and straight through exhaust. its backed by a five speed and a locked TA22 celica diff. its was an ex rally car and I'm fixing it up so i can do a few hill climb events and just race it around!

give me some ideas if you want to!

Hi mate just wondering if your from tassie, as I notice your rolla has tasmanian number plates

on it???

I own a ke20 2 door ( the one in my avatar) :P

Also is this the one I have seen in beaconsfield area? She must go alright with a T motor in it. :y:

These wagons are quite rare aswell.

smeetsy1 you don't have to be so rude. I'm pretty sure he plans on fixing the body up so you don't have to remind him. All thats wrong with the body from what I can see is the front quarter guard that can be easily fixed.

 

Tim the car look touch and I look farward to seeing what it turns out like!!

Jip, my intension was not to be rude, he simply asked for

any ideas, i replied in what i feel is the first thing required.

I have seen many people's projects and see that alot

'hot' up their car before fixing the body, frankly this

gives me the shits... So i appologise if i offended you

or the car owner... it was not my intension.

icky-icky matt black....oh well, hope to see

the finished product...

[timbo26]

picked up another engine for the wagon today, another 3t thats been bored out and fitted with 18R pistons. going to give it some new gaskets and a fresh lick of paint and slot it in after the paint is done.

 

WHATS WRONG WITH MATT BLACK HUH!!! :cool: :dance: 8/ :wink:

[benzo]

Hehe nothing's wrong with matt black man. :cool: should look tough.

 

Spray the body and cage matt black, dark tint, spray the rims black, paint the grille, headlight surrounds etc silver. 8/

 

Looking forward to seeing the finished result.

 

Cheers, Ben.

well the ole wagon is painted now, just have to decide on whether i will paint the interior or not. it looks cool with the mustard cage inside! painted the grille and surrounds in silver

 

Opinions on what i should do with the wheels, black would be the go i reckon. what do you guys think??
