July 15, 200818 yr comment_260978 Alright guys so since gettin my rolla back after some inconsiderate people stole it and thrashed it i have been debating to keep it or not... it has a bit of damage and ill try and get some pics up a bit later on tonight. I'm guna need a new front bumper, possibly a new bonnet. there is also a hole in the guard behind the rear left wheel from when it blew. is it possible to replace the panel or will it require a fibreglass/cut & weld job?? any other ideas while I'm at it?? and it may take a while cos I'm a bit strapped for cash atm, hence y I'm contemplating sellin it. cheers guys Edited July 15, 200818 yr by Camo88 Report

U-Pull-It is your friend in a time like this :( yeah see i aint the most mechanically minded person out there but yeah I'm guna have to ring around and see if i can find the bits and pieces. fitting the bumper n bonnet should be easy its jus the hole behind the wheel that has me bothered. and I'm glad they didnt smeg the engine either. good thing the k engines are tough as nuts Report
July 15, 200818 yr comment_261015 its probably not worth selling it how it is. try and fix it yourself, you'll learn some skills and ladies love guys with skills Report
July 15, 200818 yr comment_261016 Hey, sad to hear it was stolen but great to see you have it back. I'd say keep it. These cars are too rare to chuck away and once done up can be a real head turner. As for the damage on the bonnet, try getting it repaired. That's an early bonnet and they are extremely rare. I've had mine repaired after my crash and the damage was far worse than yours. Before... After... Report

July 15, 200818 yr comment_261069 Basically I bought a replacement bumper & grille shipped up from Adelaide, then the guard and apron from the local wreckers. The bumper gill costed me like around $100 shipped up to Brisbane while the guard/apron I think was around $60/$70. The panel work tho was around $500 as they had to charge to remove the bumper, panels, grille, light, straighten the radiator support panel, straighten the bonnet then put everything back on. Report

July 17, 200818 yr comment_261722 corollas aren't slow???? so what are ur plans for this car?? scott Report
July 18, 200818 yr Author comment_261904 nah man rollas are BEASTS! I'm thinkin 5k and k50 just to give it a lil bit more go, but i don't have the funds to go 4age or 4agze or anything like that. although that would be sweet. just a set of jellies or centrelines, lower it and an exhaust. well thats the plans for the near future anyways. who knows what the future will hold aye.
