My Ke55


Mighty tas rolla

Recommended Posts

yeah thats what I'm thinking of doing i don't know how hard it would be to get the red one registered but that sounds like the way to go

 

so today i went about degreaseing the engine bays did the red ones and as i was running the yellow one just to dry out the electric's i noticed a bit of fuel squirting from the throttle pump as i was giving it a rev so its a new gasket kit for the weber then :)

pics will be up later

I thinks its time for a update :dance:

 

today i finally got around to getting off my lazy arse and getting mag wheel nuts for the ol rolla so i decided to bolt a couple of the mags on just to see what they look like before i start cleaning them up they look pretty shit but they will come up good

Mask the rims up and spray them black, then clear coat. should look better, and stay looking good longer.

 

yeah i ahve been told its a good idea to use clear coat over the top it gives it a glossy look??

 

anyway nothing much is happened to the rolla lately as i have been sick and once i got better it has rained :lolcry:

Short update: my plans have changed a bit i plan on putting all the running gear out of yellow into red as i found out yellow has accually been rolled and there is about 3 inches of bog on the roof just above the passenger side front seat i wouldnt have picked it but if you push on the roof lining from the inside you can feel the roof being folded down

anyway this will happen after winter because i want to paint it all up at the same time

cheers
