the_ke55! Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 gday all this is my new ke30 which i bought off dpb (daniel). reason i stopped the ke55 build was i came to a stall and needed brake lines handbrake lines fuel lines hard lines, all the shit which i couldnt be stuffed lookin around for them n would probably cost me abit to buy them new. so yeh ive got the ke30 which is a 4 speed auto with a 3k, the autos slippin gears though which isnt a problem coz I'm going to put a 4k manual in, the bodies in pretty much great condition only rust ive seen so far is around the boot seal which wont be a problem to fix, and a little bit of surface rust on the roof which i sanded back last night and sprayed primer over for the moment, interior is immaculate apart from a couple of rips on the drivers seat. so the plans for it are: take out 3k and box and put in 4k manual body work (fix rust spots, sand the car back with wet n dry, find a colour) and wheels gotta have nice shoes! which I'm thinkin ssr starsharks, wantanabees, got a few ideas of wheels haha. but yeh for now just focusing on body and engine conversion. heres a few pics..! hope you like it if not i don't care coz i love it!!

JJT036 Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) Jessie, Do the manual conversion now, and register it as a manual, then drop in the 4K after it's rego'ed. :) Edited August 31, 2012 by JJT036 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolla van man Posted September 1, 2012 Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 Jessie, Do the manual conversion now, and register it as a manual, then drop in the 4K after it's rego'ed. :) Mu wags went to a roady with a 4k 5spd instead of 3k four speed...
