Raven Posted June 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 (edited) So I bought a couple more things today... A standard set of leaf springs for the rear and replacement bootlid hinges and the ones on the yellow car are stuffed :( Also, when my tax return comes in, I'll be getting this thing sandblasted and the rust repaired :) Edited June 21, 2008 by Raven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TE278U Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 how much extra did he charge you for the privelege?? if u don't mind me asking... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted June 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 Nothing yet - we're still negotiating that. I've sent him $150 so if it comes to be less than that he can keep the rest :P Postage is a killer though and not cheap so we'll see how it goes.

Doogs Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 Nice, will look good when on the car. :P What are you planning to do on the car in the next little while ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted June 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 (edited) Well, I gotta get a tooth pulled first, so once that is done, I planm on using my tax return moolah to get the bodywork blasted and then it goes in to get the rust cut out and new metal welded in, then a lick of paint (this will also include molesting the front and rear wheel arches for the flares and fitting up the front lip spoiler) :P. While thats being done, I'm going to start getting the motor built :D Edited June 27, 2008 by Raven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doogs Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 Nice. Are you gonna let us know the colour ? or still leaving us in the dark ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted June 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 Still leaving you allllllllll in the dark :P Let me just say that you wont be disappointed :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfunkt Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 after seeing some disgustingly awesome colors recently, i'll be very disappointed if this is anything but a corolla factory color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted June 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 Oh, poor Tate. *pats head* I wasnt even talking to you about the colour, so why are you bothering to even post in here? But since I must reply to every smart-arse comment you make, factory colours are boring and since you're a fan of factory colours, YOU my friend, are also boring. :P My 25 as it was before the dismantling wasn't even a factory colour. It was that TA22 Celica yellow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
