RollaBus_4agze Posted March 3, 2011 Author Report Posted March 3, 2011 Oh... one thing i have been VERY slowly doing is modding the boot garnish that is between the tail lights!!! Most people would usually shave the garnish altogether, but I'm shaving the garnish lol Will get some pics tomorrow and post up ;) Quote
Trev Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 Welcome back Moe, good to see you are recovering, oh and don't worry, my sedan still ain't on the road :lolcry: Quote
RollaBus_4agze Posted March 3, 2011 Author Report Posted March 3, 2011 Hey champ :) That makes me feel sooo much better lol How far away is yours from hitting the road? Quote
67Rolla-Ken Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 Welcome back buddy! Congrats on the rugrat! Can't wait to see new pics of Rollabus, sounds like you've done as much on your car in the last year as I have... but your excuses are way better :lol: Quote
Trev Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 Hey champ :) That makes me feel sooo much better lol How far away is yours from hitting the road? Oh my road won't be anywhere as nice as yours. Hoping to have it done by July. Quote
ae824ate Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 I was hoping this thread would come back to life! Awesome work, and i hope to see more. Cheers, Luke!! Quote
azza91 Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 Just read through the whole thread.i absolutely love the attention to detail throughout the build Quote
RollaBus_4agze Posted March 3, 2011 Author Report Posted March 3, 2011 Thanks heaps guys!!! So good to be back on here! Ken - good things take time tho ;) Well, thats my excuse lol I did have to sell my 1972 Falcon Coupe tho last year :( That was a sad sad day... it was either that or the rolla... rolla had too much heart put into it, so the coupe went!!!

kickn5k Posted March 4, 2011 Report Posted March 4, 2011 Congrats on the bubs and hope your back gets back to normal soon. The first build(red interior) is not quite my style but the new trim is very tasteful for a late mod autosalon style show car. The extent and quality of the airbrushing is awesome! It's refreshing to see a late model show car that isn't a gay late mod commo and that it matches the go with the show!!! Keep up the fantasic work. I've always liked the sedan ae82 shape and more modded sedans seem to be coming out of the woodwork. Stu. Quote
RollaBus_4agze Posted April 9, 2011 Author Report Posted April 9, 2011 thanks cobber... yeah, the red and black interior wasnt the best lol at the time, it was cheap to do and was a good change from the origional... but now with the new leather interior, my old red and black one is good for a laugh lol i hope it goes as well as it looks... once its on the road, ill be doing some serious mods to the engine! in hindsight, i really should have done all the engine mods while it was on the stand... but money had to be spent elsewhere... :( but when the time comes for engine mods, i want to go spastic lol and do something drastic such as AWD :D i still havent gotten any pics of the boot garnish... I'm hoping to get stuck into it again on tuesday, so sometime next week ill post up my progress :D cheers guys, moe Quote
ToasticlesAe82 Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 dude, your ride is so fly, if my sedan was half as fly as this i could die a happy man, props for ultimate ride-age :D Quote
RollaBus_4agze Posted April 16, 2011 Author Report Posted April 16, 2011 thanks toasticles :D if you need any advice etc with your sedan, let me know... as i have stripped mine down to nothing several times now lol :D Quote
ToasticlesAe82 Posted April 19, 2011 Report Posted April 19, 2011 thanks toasticles :D if you need any advice etc with your sedan, let me know... as i have stripped mine down to nothing several times now lol :D cheers dude! at the moment i'm looking to fix the exhuast manifold/gasket so it doesn't sound like a lawnmower haha and then re-upholster the boot and side cards, got some lowered suspension so i gotta flare them guards Quote
RollaBus_4agze Posted April 21, 2011 Author Report Posted April 21, 2011 cheers dude! at the moment i'm looking to fix the exhuast manifold/gasket so it doesn't sound like a lawnmower haha and then re-upholster the boot and side cards, got some lowered suspension so i gotta flare them guards hey mate... what size wheels/rims are you running? and how low are you going? I'm running 18" x 7.5 with 225 nankengs and mine is smashed pretty hard into the weeds :P what colour are you wanting to reupholster? are you going to do the interior? i think i still have all of my interior plastics from when my interior was black and red and all the plastics were done in BA Falcon roof lining which is a blackish/grey... i want to pretty much give them away as i don't need them anymore! :P Quote
ToasticlesAe82 Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 are those plastics the original ae82 ones (seeing as you did that amazing 92 conversion), cause if so i would definately take em off your hands, and yeah i'm re-upholstering black, door trim carpets and the boot as i can do these all myself with the time i have running 14" by 4" i think? on pretty small tyres but i only have to flare it a little just because when i turn it just scrapes it's king's super lows so 2" or 2.5 i can't remember, haha i'm looking to upgrade mechanically speaking into rear disc brakes and probably a near master cylinder and then after i get a bit of moolah a straight sr20 conversion (i'm a neeesfag) haha Quote
