April 7, 201214 yr comment_595942 just silver paint, mate was going to get the powder coated and done properly, but i am getting impatient to get her back on the road... Just a helpful hint on those Mazda steelies mate, You might want to get a Die Grinder because the centre hole needs to be trimmed slightly (they will go on snugly without it BUT will not come back off easily).....trust me It's only about a mm that needs to go but it WILL make a difference when removing them. I bought a KE20 many years ago with exactly same wheels on it but baldy tyres.......let's just say the end results was new wheels aswell....... Report
April 10, 201214 yr Author comment_596512 tyres fitted to the '82 626 RWD steelies the difference in rolling diameter, new rim is closest to the camera going from Auto to manual, i had to knock out the blank in the firewall to accommodate the clutch cable lucky i had the white donor car for the proper clutch cable housing getting it in place mounted, sealed and undercoated lightened flywheel clutch assembly fitted got the engine/box in, but the gearbox crossmember doesnt line up. also the ke 70 shifter is further down the tunnel than i at first hoped. will need to take some meat out of the tunnel. ran out of light and gave up for the night will take more pics tomorrow Report
