New ride I scored today.

 

Plans: Fix some niggling electrical issues, a bit of body work, cracked fuel return line and the brakes and sell it or swap it for some rolla stuff.

(if you have some nice offset rims with good tires(to suit KE70) and you wanna swap for it let me know.)

 

Has stockies not the mags on it on pics.

 

Oh, and its the 800cc version so it hauls ass.

 

 

 

Ill get some better pics in the daylight.

drop it on its ring!

f@$k yeah! the back has one, count it, ONE leaf spring!!!

Engine has been fully reco'd. Cranked uphill in 4th. Its leaking as much fuel as it burns ATM.

Such a sweet score, and a VERY good deal.

Ah yeah,

 

voted the most unsafe car of all time in a crash.

 

I actually drove one on my L's a long time ago. What a powerhouse, with the 2 speed auto. 80 ks an hour flat out!

 

They get ringy and blow smoke real quick. How's the engine?

 

Mighty boy = Mighty dead real soon!

 

But FUN

Like I said fully reco'd engine so drives sweet. Just stopping is an issue.

This is a 4 spd manual.

 

I'm not driving it either. Gonna sit in the garage to do it up.

 

Its purely a 'do up a bit and make money' deal. Unless I end up liking it too much.

 

You have to register it as a utility so it costs more than my Falcon to register. WTF? It has 3 cylinders! Its a big motor cycle you don't get wet in.

needs a 4age or 4k conversion :(

 

One with a V6 in it.

Used to be one of these getting around Darwin years ago with a nitrous chewing Subaru WRX motor in it.

Had been converted to rear wheel drive, and would pop a wicked wheelie.

 

Don't want to put idea's in your head or anything :jamie:

You can bolt the turbo gear from and Alto works RS-R onto these.

 

 

Jus' sayin' :jamie:

there is a guy in brisbane who has a rear mounted V8 in one, back end is completely re designed. in fact there isnt much mighty boy left....

 

it competes in the hill climbs (ive seen it at the mt cootha hillclimb the last 2 yrs).

 

it is fast!

 

only photo i can find of it. this is at mt cootha.

don't get me started guys! How ever much I'd like to do something crazy to it the rolla takes priority.

 

But I like the turbo idea 7shades!

used to get a ride to school in my mates one of these. Black. Death trap, I know why my folks were a little funny about it at the time...

They also fetch a pretty penny these days.

 

Should net well over 2k for it!

Hmmm. Then I got it for an insane deal.

can't remember what dvd or show it was on, grunt files maybe, but some bloke turbo'd and bagged one of these things and it was an absolute beast.
