sixsixone Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Name: Jarrad Car: 1981 KE55 Sedan Motor & Driveline: All stock unfortunately (Re-Conned 4k though :)) Suspension & Brakes: Stock again Wheels & Tyres: Some more stock Interior: Crap condition and stock, minus the drivers seat which was changed before I bought it. Body: Pretty crap, lots of rust. Lookin to get another decent shell. Other: Engine seems real good, was worth the $100 alone. Got myself a car to play with though. It's my first rolla, definately not my last though. Dad says the rust is fix-able, so I beleive him. Just since i've had the car at home and looked at it a bit more. I've noticed a few more things, so probably going to buy a KE30 or another KE55 if I can get one on the cheap (even with a rooted motor, cause i have a lovely one right here (L)) Cheers guys.

never Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Posted in the VIC thread that I bought a ke30 a few weeks ago. Its a 1974 and is nice and clean. If only my photography was better! Future plans are keep it tidy and maybe go the exhaust, extractors and weber route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiP Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 WoW that looks very clean. I'm liking the wheels too, they aren't stockies are they?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
never Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 WoW that looks very clean. I'm liking the wheels too, they aren't stockies are they?? They are 13s but they must be fairly wide as it has 205s on there, so at a guess 6.5" wide? Not the skinny little things they came standard with anyway.

boosted_rolla_dreams Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 I will update pictures when I get a chance, I now have a Specometer tach and Kenny sticker. Also, fitted a brand new inner tie rod end (got it for trade price too :) ), that was what caused the vibration, not flat spots. hey just wondering how much it cost you fro the inner tie rod end cause I'm for a new one too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
