well guys update time over the last week i have been preping my new doors for the rolla today the insides of the door got painted and the inside of the new mudguard. Also I took the seats out of the car fro a good vacumm, clean and tidy-up.one of the things i did was hollow out a cigarette lighter to run my tacho wires therough when i put the new dash.

Just read through the whole thing man, great work i'll be staying hooked for this one, on the subject on faded paint, I did some rust repairs to my KE55 on the weekend and the PPG paint i got for that out of a can matched pretty good, and there is hardly a difference, so you'd certainly be suprised in some cases,

 

Cheers man and love the hard work! keep it up

here is the finished corolla we went for an inspection today and it failed on 3 things the window tint was too dark, the brake master cylinder was leaking out the back and it had no battery bracket which i had made and painted thismorning but we were in such a rush i forgot to put it on so this afternoon we scraped the the tint off and installed the battery clamp and tomorrow we are picking up the new master cylinder we ordered $113 later so we will install that at our friends workshop tomorrow morning and go back for round 2.
