KE ping it real Posted August 1, 2011 Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 (edited) Hey guys Well its been a few years since i have had the privilage of posting on this site as i am now back in the car i should be, A Rolla :dance: I bough this little beast from a guy on this site (Thanks Rob)from melbourne unregoed and got a permit for it and drove it back yesterday. Did it one go 10hrs from Mt Eliza VIC to Berowra NSW and didnt miss a beat :y: No overheating or anything aside from a small start and idle issue which i am getting sorted tomorrow. Funny thing i drove just under 1000km yesterday,with no plates, drove past six or seven cops and didnt get pulled over once haha. Anyway here some photos after i gave her a clean up today Edited March 20, 2012 by KE ping it real Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crowie55 Posted August 1, 2011 Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 Welcome back to the dark side, looks like a great purchase dude the paint looks in pretty good condition from the pictures. What are your plans with the dash? convert it to later model 30 one or fix up the existing one? cheers, Crowie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KE ping it real Posted August 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 I'm thinking, fix the existing dash. as much as i hate the thought of pulling it out (been ther done that before :bash: ) i know its going to be the only way to do it right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUZ440 Posted August 1, 2011 Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 Nice pic up mate, too lucky about the drive past the fuzz also So interesting to see a back seat in a Two Door and how much space there is inside and see right though it, haha I remember when mine use to look like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12A Posted August 1, 2011 Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 beautiful!!! can't wait to see her around! my partner lives in Berowra and I'm in Asquith, so I'm sure ill see it sometime, hopefully soon! unfortunately my KE wont be around the area anymore, as she got cleaned up near Hornsby Westfield on Sat by an idiot.. If you havent found anyone to trim the dash yet, try Mick Cooper down Brennan Close in Hornsby. He has done some of our customer cars and he does an excellent job. James.

Buggar, sorry to hear about your car :bash: Thanks for the advice on the dash, I'll definitly be in touch with him when i get to that stage I can't wait to get it regoed so i can enjoy it :yes: And NISROLA, yeah i thought it was pretty funny not getting pulled over.
