Yeah might take a little longer.....

Have an issue with a dog that goes F%&king bonkers when you try and use a compressor or a sanding block! But some how he was sleeping near me using a grinder for like an hour? WTF?

Going to go shopping for a new compressor and MIG soon just gotta sort a few thing out first.

LMAOOOOOOO!!!!!!! bloody gold mate!

[Doogs]

What a weird dog ! Pain in the arse...

Tried Schmackos ? lol

[Handiman]

yea bud coming along real well look forward to reading more what colour are you going paint it

 

Sorry for the latency of the reply!

I was thinking of a an original colour but with a modern twist.

As i don't want it to stand out like "dogs balls" so to speak i was thinking maybe a genuine period toyota white with a green pearl over it so maybe a peppermint sorta colour......

Will look grandma spec but with subtle mods to give an idea of what lies beneath! HAHAAHAHAAA! :D

 

 

And NO Doogs Schmackos don't work!!! HAHAAHAHHA! :no:

The dogs a blind, diabetic huski that is over sensitive to any changes in his enviroment!! Could also be slightly retarded if dogs can be so...

 

Any one in brissy got a rotisserie i could borrow, hire or buy?? (For the car) :(

 

Will be spending most of sunday with the car and removing more paint and cancer!

Looking Great Handi.....An original toyota colour with a pearl will give you a pretty nice and original finish. I've painted mine 74' white with a white pearl. The 74' white has a tinge of green which shows in the pearl.

 

Keep the updates coming.

[Handiman]

Ah yeah didnt do anything on the weekend.... Very hungover :happy:

Spent a few hours this week playing around on the rear end.

Got some parts for it too, Manual pedal box and flares, Thanks Chief!

Just a few random pics for you. :yes:

 

 

 

Probably going to spend this Weekend doing a fair bit if all goes to plan.

Going out to QR Sunday for some "inspiration" :huh:

 

 

 

 

Thanks for looking everyone!

[Handiman]

Hi Everyone!

I have spent most of today doing all the fine work in the rear end. Got all the paint out of all the small grooves and have every thing back to bare metal and etch primed. :blinks:

I still am yet to get the rust removed but all rust has been treated.

 

 

Cleaned out both gutters and got most of the paint out of them. :lolcry:

Tried to straighten the rear under bumper panel did OK but still is a bit bent. May get replaced any way so Ill see what happens.

 

 

 

I will probably not do anything tomorrow except the primer in the gutters, early start to go to QR. :dance:

Might do the doors and bonnet and boot by next W/E, Ill see how i go for motivation! :blinks:

 

 

Thanks for looking!

pfft hangover, any excuse will do :blinks: haha.

you could probably have my charger if u want it, thinking of going

turbo instead, found a turbo exhaust manifold I bought ages ago and forgot about.

in trade for the charger you can give us a hand figuring out

what turbo parts I need, I don't know much about turbo setups.

[Jesseb369]

sick build so far man!

 

Ill be watching this thread :D

Thanks for the offer but Ill NEED the bigger version for what I have planned!

Ill still give you a hand though. Ill need some turbo related bits for mine now..........HAHHAA ;)

I know a bit but ill see what we can figure out.

 

sick build so far man!

 

Ill be watching this thread :)

 

Thank you! I really need motivation, I only planned to do this over 3 months or so but you know the story, I think everyone on here has done it and spent way too much time on there cars!

 

I am going to be dropping some of my plans to get it back on the road sooner.

Got to have some life outside of work and playing with cars.

Still it will turn some heads and scare commonhore drivers! :wink:

[Handiman]

Hi people!

Had a few hours free today. Got a little bit of work done.

Nothing special just had a crack at the passenger door aperture and cleaned a bit of in front of the windscreen and down the side.

 

 

Found more rust as expected!

Didn't get as much as I would like done........ Stupid dog! :)

Will attempt more this week. Need to get the silly dog removed for a couple of hours.

Haven't got a welder yet, Still shopping around.

 

Thanks for your Comments everyone! :laff:

[Handiman]

G'Day Mate's!

 

No real progress yet!

Busy as usual, (and lazy). ;) I've just getting parts and helping out other people.

Now have a Charger, A/C brackets some pulleys and adjusters, R.R.F.P.R. and electric fuel pump thanks to Felix. :dance:

That thing ways a tonne!

Needs R+D though! Sounds fun! :blinks:

 

Looking closer to getting a motor and box, but still in progress on that one.

Have been doing a lot of research as well. My Brain is hurting! :dance:

 

 

No I am not going to boost the 3k either it needs a new home along with the Toyoglide.

Was thinking something a little Bigger! :blinks:

On another note does any one know a good panel/rust repairer in north Brisbane area. I have decided not to go the rust/ panels myself.

 

Thanks for looking People!
