Murd 55

i bet my daily is way more comfy, and more economical too :) damn thing seems cheaper to run than that dirty 18, musta been tuned super badly, lol.

what did ya buy??

that video really was like 5k porn :y: haha I'm still in the process of working out what i plan to do with mine that is sitting in the garage doing not much, bit dirty so prob first thing i can do is strip it down and clean it up, also i have a manual if u wanted me to like scan and send you the motor stuff in it maybe if not they come up on ebay all the time.

would be keen to see it at the cruise on the 28th!

I'm tempted to go but wld feel weird sittin there on ma lonesome :y:

fairs fair, maybe by the time my seconds are due the car will be even scarier/funner!!

when do i get anotehr spin!! I'm missin my corollas :)

i was gna come but got stuck at a party, plus the merc wlda been a pig in the hills :)

that commy really was overrated, i know like impossible to believe glad your ok thou ryan a hit liek that in the ol 30 you mightnt have seen walking again.

what happened? does this mean ull b able to come work on the coupe more now?

i painted mine again with rattle can black as there were so many imperfections in it that i had to smooth out ect, hasnt been hacked too bad with stone chips i just touch up everynow and then with a little bit of rattle can i think if u wanted to go body colour just chuck an extra coat of clear so as it would take more of a beating. mine screwed into the front apron fine even with the 55 lippy bit at the bottom! if i sat it a bit lower would have been better as u can see a tiny bit of the apron in the 2 hole things i just did a bit of rattle can action on that too. it looks crooked but its actually the bumper that was. chassis rail bolts were crooked eventually fixed it, lol.

nah no where that tidy, i honestly have no idea what it was but it was cool! not as cool as them they're rocking!!

i had a car that could fit its own bonnet in the back, but not anymore, maybe in the back or out the boot with the back seats folded down really depends on the width of the bonnet vs the width of the boot ect.

spotted a pretty mad looking old school car, sorry no idea what is was but was sporting one of them cool pipe ice cooler things like watsername on here has, they look so cool on that era car!

you better ryan :wink: u kno its my birthday :jamie:

there is a coupe that have a pair off these near my work, they don't look that tidy thou, well done i think this will be great if u make it even half as good as the ke20 was!

yeah i just picked up an old merc, so nice to drive and enough poke for everyday driving!

you can paint straight over 2pac as long as rubbed sufficiently, if painting metalics rub with 800wet if painting solids 400 on a sander will be sufficient. the only reason i can see needing to use 2 pac primer over 2pac is over repairs and whatnot as at work we use 2 pac and just prime repairs. if blending panels on metalics we rub with 1500wet then use scuff it or a 100disc by hand just to ensure you havent left scratches from rubbing incorrectly, should always use palm not fingertips as fingertips will scratch it up badly and colours with metalics will show it right up! at work the painters have respirators with filters on them and a parachute like material pants and jacket 1 to stop them gettin shit and the paint and i gues to stop the paint gettin into their skin but when priming we do it out in the open and i don't have a respirator so hello to an early death for me! etch primer alot like 1k primer, which is acrylic can be painted over with 2pac but isn't recommended we use it a bit in a can at work mostly to prime over small rub throughs in repairs but rub it back before painting over it also. we use wax and grease remover, sometimes metho, metho more for on new plastic parts as prepsol (wax and grease remover) is too harsh on the unpainted plastic!

can still buy cherry coke, in cans like doctor pepper at 3bucks a can its a rip off but damn it tastes so good!

lol i don't have a 3t anymore. :S

no hills involved. i should be there.

i vote on no hills or slow hill run :lolcry:

so how are people on cars other than corollas rocking up?

i bought my bonnet pins from the V8 races down at mallala =]

once again harbour town don't let car clubs meet there due to RCK doing skids and ruining for everyone.
