  1. The ke 70 shifter position seems slightly tilted back as well ,
  2. that striping is a lock to hold the window in so the seal doesn't flex and the window fall out, the installer may not know this if they have only worked on modern cars.
  3. looking good, What are your plans for the body work? I would love to ADD a 2 door ke70 to the rolla collection.
  4. with electroplating the cheapest isn't always the best, electroplating is very labor intensive buffing , polishing. If done properly there are 3 layers first copper then nickel lastly chrome, if rushed the product will be of poor quality.
  5. looking good Ben you have done a great job well done. what sort of paint are you going to use?
  6. The car looks great, the photography is excellent, Did you do a course in photography?
  7. thats crazy it would break axles if pushed hard.
  8. That sill panel would be deemed structural damage and defect-able .Unfortunately fitting a new or s/h seal panel would cost more than the value of the car
  9. Id like to see them on a rolla how wide would they stick out?
  10. do a depth test with plugs installed from top of plug to the tappet cover see if plug no 1 is sitting in further. or Unfortunately it may be time to strip down and get to the bottom of the problem
  11. I hate it when people damage locks I, that was a good score on the plates.
  12. I can build a k engine that wont leak its not hard, Ken the car is looking good, I want a set of twin carburetors like yours.
  13. Words fail me, My first thought were how it would handle a gutter if hit. A would it smash to bits or, B would it just fall off
  14. Your car most likely has a auto diff in it, The auto Transmission has a speedo drive gear suited to a auto Diff ratio. motor size gearbox type is irrelevant, tail-shaft spinning speed is what is measured. the Tyres size will also affect the speedo reading. there should be a tyre specification on the inside of the boot.
  15. If you are considering buying the rubbers off ebay form Our Taiwanese Friends maybe ask a few People about the quality first, I know the taillights fade badly
  16. For a temp repair add a extra sealing washer off a old plug, Are you sure the thread is factory and not a misaligned helicoil.
  17. Stale fuel perhaps??
  18. I saw a pink excel with the number plate NURSE, it had a guy driving it. :jamie: wished I had the camera.
  19. Most times the seals can actually be reused, you could also Try, spectrum rubber for a quote, http://www.spectrumrubber.com.au/index.html 218.741 Screen seal - front - coupe KE35 (takes chrome strip)
  20. electric motor conversion sounds interesting that will have some interesting torque. Nice score on the van.
