Gspec Posted July 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 Keeps us posted on your sale and potential new 4 banger Chops. The pumpkin has had a road worthy check, it requires: Rear brake shoes Rear brake cylinders Front brake pads Caster rod bushes Front sway bar bushes AND 1 exhaust hanger. Some of which I am doing now. It would have been last night but I wwas given parts for a KE70, seems not many people actually know what T18 is.

Gspec Posted July 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 Good to see all this progress Sean. Top effort! Cheers Paul. Its a bit of last minute rush job to get it on the road as I am sick of driving the Torana. The pumpkin is no where near 100%. It needs a better paint job all over. The boot lid was done with a pressure pack just to get it registered (too cold to 2 pak at the moment) and the rest of the paint could be better. Plus I have though up a new colour scheme. The bonnet is just a patch n paint job because good T18 bonnets are hard to find... though as it turns out apparrently KE70 bonnets are the same. Anyways, she's now registered so I'm looking forwards to doing more work on her, such as rims, suspention, exhaust, carby... etc.. Plus I'm now chasing a KE70 (again) to replace the Torana. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marko Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 nice job so far :) Is that a gloss pressure paint on the bonnet? cause i am trying to find a nice shiny white pressure paint to match my car in some areas and don't want to do a full respray because its only to pass rego atm.

Cheers mate. The bonnet is not only 2 pak, its ment to be satin. As for getting past rego (in Vic) patchy paint will pass as long as the car is no more than 4 colours and there is no visable rust... However, some paint shops (like the Body Shop) will make up a custom pressure pack of any colour for around $20, they should also be able to colour match too. Just take in your filler panel. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Go into autobarn with your paint code or paint name and they should have touch up pressure pack cans on shelf. In my case I bought Centre red for my AE82 and yeah it was around the $20 mark. Good match too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
