Hey rollaclub members

 

I'm new to rollaclub happy to be online sharing this beast i bought its a 1971 ke20 2 door sedan i bought if off an old guy called grahame from cabooluture apparently hes known for finding all the rare rollas he sold that 4door ke10 to someone whos selling it online here, he showed me heaps of his corollas his ke15x2 he had another ke17 with tacho a T-18 and a ke35 coupe in amazing condition.

 

Anyways i bought it for 1300 with a K50 box and an upgrade to a 4K 1300 tuned by him. I have just currently got a mobile safety certificate for it and the guy who gave me the certicate said whoevers been under the hood everything was done to perfection.. didnt need anything doing to the car he just happily handed me the safety certicate passed with flying colours.

 

some questions for the members with the knowledge:

 

1.) The safety certicate guy said the numbers were differnt and ofcourse they were going to be coz its a 4k 1300 not the original 3k 1200 so i am wondering what is the go there can i still get it registed at the transport department with no hassles or what all i know is grahame assured me that its not a hassle and that it wont need a mod plate or anything?

 

2.) its got a 5 speed box not the original 4 speed wats the go there guys?

 

things that need addressing all the rust was cut out by him so just need to paint it

lower it

get some proper wheels

steering wheels and cd player :fuzz:

 

i throw up some pics then hey....

aarghh why do yo uget a good dash :fuzz: mine is cracked SOO bad

 

car looks good :fuzz:

 

any plans?

Looks great, nice pick up.

 

Engine wise I'm sure its just a matter of changing the Engine number from the 3k to the 4k block number.

 

Also, how many steering wheels do you plan on having?? lol, think ya may have put that by mistake, but i LOL'd

 

And welcome to RC!!
