I stumbled out to my car today and decided I'd check the engine numbers..

To my surprise the car has a 4k motor with a 3k head! What a bonus!

 

Once I get myself into a good enough paying job I'll be able to start some work on this monster.

...Unless some Canberra RC members are willing to teach me how to fix rust and panel beat! :wink: ;)

If i could i would! Its something i'd love to master!

 

Good news on the engine front. any chance for Dubbo?

I'm doubting that I'll be able to go to Dubbo. I've had a bad turn of events.

Which is being fired from work, having a leaky head in my daily which will need fixing,

and a huge hole in my exhaust manifold has come up.

 

If anyone's driving I'll go as I'd love to go, but most-likely won't be taking my car.

Well.. heh. Motor didn't end up going in as I was convinced to go through the suffering of putting it in my daily KE70.

Probably worth it as I wouldn't get to drive the purple car for a while.

 

Anyway, it might be leaving! It's a good thing as it only sat in my driveway getting weathered on.

I wasn't doing anything too it and couldn't really afford doing much to it apart from clean it up and drive it. I really wanted to do something "BIG" to it like an engine transplant, full respray, etc.. all of which I couldn't afford. Besides, I like working on my KE70 at the moment, which has really grown on me since I've put the 5k in it. Matt, the new owner IS going to do something to it, so i'm glad that it will be doing more than sitting in my driveway!

That seems reasonable. I 'spose you would be happy for someone to do it up, rather than it just sittin' there in ya driveway.
