Really liking this a lot.

 

Good work dude

Got some KYB suzuki sierra shocks today for a wicked price! cheers Dan :rolls:

 

will fit them up tomorrow if all goes to plan.

 

A pic from last weekend's cruise of the van in it's natural elements.. rain :(

 

man those wheels suit that car looking pretty good :P

cheers for the comments people :yes:

 

Latest mod: carrying a ladder on my roof racks. its a shit one. old and wooden. need more aluminum because the weight of it is clearly slowing me down..

 

Haven't been able to fit my rear shocks yet either. :yes: New house now has a mud/gravel/construction site driveway. i miss my garage :)

 

I should add a pic with my post. here's a funny one: :)

haha sweet pic man! just need to photoshop out that supra, and photoshop in the rest of your tailgate.

 

just read through your thread.

 

really like your car. must go alright with the mods you go there.

 

i like what you did on your swaybar, good to see some innovation!

i love that (especially how the mirror perfectly blocks out the number plate). sick panno man i wish mine was somewhere close to that condition.

Sweet van mate, and just round the corner from me as well ! I will have to keep my eyes out for you in future.

Cheers :yes:

I was going to say that! Like PERFECTLY hides it........ as I'm guessing thats not a private road! :jamie:

doing some tidying up on the van atm and have a couple of questions: does anyone know for sure if a low roof wagon tailgate will fit directly onto my van? pretty certain it will, but thought id check first with the experienced people on here.

 

only difference i can spot is the obvious rear wiper blade on the back of wagons.

 

other question was the headlining. does wagon headlining fit a van..? this I'm not too sure on because I'm guessing it might be different around the front doors (van doors longer) and the extra rear doors..

 

Ohh got a cheapo pair of new steering tyres. they suck. i should have spent more cass and got better ones :dance:

 

click* add reply. heh

Tailgates are the same, only the high roof blends into it so I can understand why you may think the tailgates may look different. Headlining should be the same as well, go to pick a part in Campbellfield as there was a ke70 wagon flat roof wagon down there with tail gate.

Thanks buddy :dance:

 

there is a nice blue ke70 wagon at centre rd which I'm going to hit up for parts aswell. what colour was the interior on the wagz at campbellfied? I'm looking for a cream coloured roof lining.

Hey Mate, you'll be in luck at Campbellfield because the interior or more importantly the roof lining is tan so it would match your van 100% :dance:

ok, nabbed the wagon tailgate at centre rd. its also got the washer jet nozzle on the top of the gate which i will have to weld/fill in and also the wiper arm hole needs to go. i want to keep the panelvan back (much smoother than a wagon) original looking so people notice the difference between wagons and vans.

 

also re headliner, wagons have the holes up the top for the rear seatbelt hangers and two jesus handles for the back passengers, so i decided I'm not going to fit a wagon headliner in my van. two many extra holes, so i'll just get a new one made by an upholester :fuzz:

 

ok, now back to the carport to fiddle with the car in the dark :dance:

Did that wagon tailgate happen to be blue?

 

I saw that there. CLEAN. 126k on the clock. The gear knob now adorns the humpback. And the threaded tripmeter reset knob!!

 

Can't wait to see it on Sunday

yep, it was the blue one. low kms wasnt it.! man i felt bad pulling bits off it :fuzz: just didnt sit well with me :dance: All going to a good cause though. the interior is so clean in it and someone ripped the tacho gauge out of the cluster. haha.

 

its a good shell, someone should save it..?!

Yeah, but the engine/5speed was ripped out before it made it to the yard. The gear knob was lying on the floor next to the console. Still had the 5speed plate in it. looks awesome in the humpback. The tacho had already been ripped when I saw it. I am innocent.

 

 

Well, I didn't actually pay for the knob.....

 

As you say, it was for a good cause.
