  1. The usual issues under the bonnet. Brake master cylinder is leaking in both of them. Needs attention soon because I hate the corrosion on the firewall :y: It's funny having two cars that are so similar though.
  2. Hey Damo. I was just looking at your car today. You've done a sensational job! Yeah, miss my 82s... Just love the old skool rollas so much too though. Love that pipe work in the last few photos you posted up on ae82oc. You should come over for the Clipsal and we'll all catch up. Legend's coming down.
  3. Hah hah, you and B2 do have rather a long history. Was just looking at your signature. Any photos of that ke20 of yours? Do you still have it? Here are some photos of the ke25 then next I'll put some comparison shots up and side by side pics. Hubcaps, one before and one after a polish: Self explanatory: Bought a good battery: Love these embossed bits in the head rests: Really got to replace that carpet: Need a new parcel shelf please :y:
  4. Yup, B2 says she can't do without your touch Will. :y: Definitely trying to have her all fixed up by September. Started stripping her off today. Nickyboy, I totally agree. It bothered me that she'd be parted out. Thought about fixing her up and then choosing between the 20 and the 25 but I can't part with either of them. So many things to love about both. A few photos taken today.
  5. You're more than welcome to come and try out both the 20 and 25 if you'd like. I have a mate who is about 6ft and he sits comfortably in the back of the 25 every now and then.
  6. Love your ke's! The red interior is so retro. Where did you get that fan??
  7. Thanks guys. I promise I'll drive both rollas out onto the street tomorrow and take some decent photos. Was looking at them today. They sure make a neat looking couple. Have passenger side door and quarter panel for the 20 on their way as we speak so looking forward to that. Will rub it back to get it resprayed in original colour (coz I love it!) so that the new panels match the old perfectly. Hoping to get all this done before the Bay to Birdwood but we'll see how the finances hold up :). This baby is staying granny spec forever. 25 will be a totally different look. Oke20, your mate's ke20 looks great. I'd love to know more about what he's done to it. The effort you put in is inspirational! RA28GT. I don't know that mine are as tidy as yours is. They're very neat but yours looks amazing. I'd love to get them all together with Mitch's and 13BT's for a photo day.
  8. That is excellent work. Looking very retro now. Love the colour scheme too.
  9. C'mon Red, don't take it personal. You do a great job around here. I just think the admin team would be far less worn out if members showed a little respect and moderators didn't take some of the off topic stuff so seriously. I am also one who hates seeing "for sale" threads bumped over and over by spammers and sellers alike but the occasional compliment on a really clean example can't hurt anyone. Some of my compliments have been deleted but I respect that and now don't bother to make them. If it upset me I might've pm'ed you but I understand why you've taken that approach and am grateful that you care enough to keep this forum a tidy place. It's 100 times more pleasant here than on spamcity Twincam.org and even ae86dc. Stay on board.

    Walked past and said "Hey JT". Your mate heard but you didn't... I work at Muffin Break. Come and get a coffee/hot chocolate/whatever sometime. It's on me :( The owner of Lenards also has a rolla now. He comes over for a chat every morning and lurks this forum from time to time.
  11. Trev, none of my post was targeted at you. I acknowledge you as one of those knowledgeable contributors and enjoy reading discussions you are involved in. I'm sorry if you took it the wrong way. Furthermore, my husband and I are not amongst the "young" members that you refer to. We've had corollas for years and intend to keep it that way :)
  12. Wow, some of you take yourselves too seriously. There are those who are actually knowledgeable but far too serious and then there are those who talk crap and expect the rest of us to pay attention. Both are a pain in the backside. Topic: "A matter dealt with in a text, discourse or conversation; a subject." Off topic: Anything unrelated to "the subject". Obviously abuse cannot be tolerated. Some of the useless dribble irritates me too so I do the mature thing... ignore it. Most of the moderators are great but there are one or two who get a real ego trip out of having a go at people. One only hopes that in years to come they reflect on how pathetic they were. I've also had enough of the ridiculous "state" stereotypes. My husband and I have attended a number of cruises now, organised by Toyota Car Club, rollaclub and ae82ownersclub, and have caught up with friends who we otherwise would not have "met" outside of the forums. I introduced myself to Lesley at a cruise because I had replied to a post of hers here and recognised her car. Raven and I are friends because we decided to catch up in person following "conversation" here. I followed Benzo a few months ago and we both pulled over to have a chat. Will bought a car from me and me from him. Jason is the ae82 guru who we visit in Sydney along with Mick and the notorious twincam.org Johnny who is a genuine good mate when given a chance. These are just a few examples. We all live very separate lives and I for one am often too busy or too tired throughout the daylight hours to catch up with people. Having said that, we have introduced several members to this forum and/or inspired their interest in corollas in general. One of the things I've learnt: A silent member or a member who refrains from spouting off about all he knows is not necessarily a less knowledgeable or less valuable member. I appreciate the wealth of knowledge here on rollaclub and other forums. I also respect the administration team and am grateful for the job that they do but it has to be said: Good manners go a long way. There is an appropriate way to get a point across. No member should be treated with disrespect. If everyone keeps this in mind, the forum will continue to grow both in quality and quantity.
  13. Hah hah, yes of course! Agree to the Cherry Blossoms too. If my 25 wasn't already kind of pink, I'd dream of the cherrys for her as well. ;)
  14. Will be great to see this thing out and about sometime. Why not join us and work towards the Bay to Birdwood! Would be great to have several 20s and 25s all cruising up together.
  15. Rofl, Will don't admit it. All of us around here think you're a big boy. :(
  16. Touge with no power though. Meh

    Spotted Justin Timberlake in Woolworths the other day and then driving down Hancock Road in his hotter than hot beige ksev this arvo.
  18. Looks great Punchy. I'm incredibly envious of your front end (lol, that has to sound odd) and AIRCONDITIONING... what? Mine doesn't even have a fan!!
  19. TransportSA have got to be the worst in the country by far. I've been in there to ask about this and that and every person you talk to gives a different answer. Really hope you manage to get your car passed.
  20. Oh for crying out loud. It's 2:45am and I am cracking up laughing at the JT jokes again! Love you Benzo :yes:

    Spotted a pretty tidy looking ke70 wagon in white on South Road yesterday.
  22. Wow, you have an incredible eye for a great photo. Reckon we need you to come along to a photo shoot or two sometime... with your rollas of course!
  23. Ashie, love that little 20 of yours. Whereabouts in the hills are you? Tea Tree Gully way or more towards Blackwood? Will look forward to watching you restore her. Welcome to the family :cool: We'll have to do a cruise sometime with all the ke2# in Adelaide. Hey Will. Just found out that you go to school with my little brother-in-law, Perry.
  24. Ohhh man! Those photoshopped pics are sensational and damn, who's is the ke2# in the pic with the van? I so love that you have the pano. Knew you'd do it justice.
  25. Love your 25. Looks very tidy. Beautiful view too from where you're driving. Really love the other vid you've got up there too!
