Jono.C Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 (edited) I thought i'd throw up a photo of my new love i've been toying with for a while.. Used to be on here quite a lot, I left RC for about a year and something due to getting sick of ke70's and internet. My ke10 was being a stubborn shit and i moved it to my friends house 85k's away for a while. Built a ca18det ke30 only to get bored, Built a 3t ke70 for a mate and lately a retardedly stupidly spastic 3sgte build is taking up my time for the Celica Found it on Gumtree, After a phone call drove 300k's to get it a few days later and been smitten ever since! 1973 MS65 Crown, HM Motors rebuilt 4m and w40 Here's how it currently sits! New windscreen, New exhaust, Nolathaned front end, Compressed springs, Hilux gas shocks, Twin spinner diff 15x8 -25 sunraysias with 195/50's, Untouched guards All bent trim removed from the front, Debadged and blacked out front All dents pulled out and polished All the car needs now is rear bar straightened and rear seat belts Currently have 1jzge at a mates place with a sc14 on the side for when it gets boring! Will be back on a bit more now as i'll be acquiring a new corolla for a build soon to replace my mx73 as daily. Cheers!

Taz_Rx Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 How many cars do you have? Lol.... Not that I can really talk. Hey you want a w50 for this?

B.L.Z.BUB Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 Welcome back. Got the front half of an RA60 tailshaft you wanna sell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jono.C Posted June 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 I don't on me.. One of my parts cars is ra60 but it's auto. Imagine you need manual? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.L.Z.BUB Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 Yeah, don't wanna shell out for a custom shaft being the tight ass I am, so need the RA front and T rear. Surprisingly hard to come across. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jono.C Posted June 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 Actually i have a second ra60.. I pulled the w57 out for my 3sgte, I'll check next time i'm there if there's a tailshaft Cheers Ben, It was a pretty good score but also took a still requires a bit of work.. Not used to owning something so heavy after many corolla's etc haha Not sure the sc14 is the best choice but it was free.. May not use that motor at all yet. The idea of a carb'd ls1 keeps coming into my head as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
