August 26, 201214 yr comment_623258 I have owned this for a while now, I'm the second owner. I bought it of the original owner which was a sweet old lady that kept my number for somewhere around the 10 year mark. Car has no real rust in it at all, only very minor surface rust on the front of the car which look like they were caused by stone chips. It has a dent on the drivers front guard, and the vinyl is average. But for a one owner 67 car, I'm pretty happy.. WIll not be doing anything to this. (seems this plan didnt last) All I have done is add the Venetians and the 14"s. Getting my spare interior retrimmed to suit and will get the dent fixed. She looks beautifull though. newer pictures.

August 26, 201214 yr Author comment_623280 yeah, I'm used to it already... Although I do feel bad driving her every day sun, rain, hail... what ever. May get a standard 4k to wack in it so i can keep the original K.. Its still healhy as fk so it may be worth keeping it that way... just wish there was an easy way of lowering it, would use blocks in rear seeing I'm not building a race car, but the front is just a pain in the ass. Thats the only objection I have against it. easiest thing is to keep it standard, and keep playing with the other one. Report
August 26, 201214 yr comment_623298 Top daily!!!!!! Go 5k man, I've just gone back to a STD 4K after having a reasonably punchy twin su'd 5K then the 100rwkw blown 5K, it's soooo slow! Lowering is easy. Ditch the transverse leaf. Get a set of ke20 shock inserts, ke20 strut tops with top spring perches and ke 20 low springs!! Laughing you'll also need a front sway bar though. Report
August 26, 201214 yr Author comment_623303 this ke I don't really want to do anything to.. to nice to modify, would go 5k but can only legally go to 4k. and I'm not building it for performance, but if I could go up hills it would be a bonus. is there any way of getting the standard front lower without massive mods? got quoted 600 to reset the front leafs which seems a little excessive.

August 26, 201214 yr comment_623306 As Stu said ditch the front leaf, it limits how low you can go. Get a ke70 springs and chop it to the height you want and then have a pair made to those specs and fit it with ke20 spring hats. Lower and stiffer to protect your guards Report
August 26, 201214 yr comment_623310 I've never had mine out and driven it, but it really limits how low you can go. But put it this way, you can get springs made and a whileline swaybar for less than your leaf spring quote Report
August 26, 201214 yr comment_623314 how bad are they without leaf and no sway bar? I dealt with it for around 6-8 months. Then I put one on and wow what a difference!! I could of dealt with it longer if it was just a daily and knew no different though. Report
August 27, 201214 yr comment_623387 Awesome! Wish I hadn't sold mine. I'd be happy with the 3k. No rush to get anywhere when you've got a sweet KE1x. Everyone wants the chance to spin their head around to look at it :groupwave: Report
August 27, 201214 yr comment_623390 Beautiful car. Make sure you wack her up on the database: http://www.rollaclub.com/board/topic/7971-corolla-database/ Curious to see if she's older than my girl :) Report
