skd30

Hey its just "K&H Underbody spray" comes in 4L drums or 1L but it way cheap;er to buy the big ones.....i used round 6L under mine including both sides on that little bash guard for under the motor. Progress wont be so fast anymore unfortunately cause uni i back adn the cars 2 hours from here so ill only be going back to work on weekends on it. Forgot my camera back there to so can't put the new work up. aw well. cheers, Simon

ill try get the ke30 back on the road by then and get some funds. ill be coming from newy if anyone wants to cruz out there with me. if the 30 isnt on the road ill probs take to ratty 55.

Names Duber, drive a white ke55 atm (daily). got a ke30 2 door in the shed that I'm fixing for my one and only car...gonna be red...will piss the 55 off once its done. I'm in newy most of the time for uni so ill be cruzing round there

me too...dooit

dream setup right there mate...sept i want it in a ke25 coupe delux mmmmm tasty. but 4 door ke20 would do lol

Cheer for the link... Didint read your post early enough so they have 2pack primer on em now, ill just spray em and when it peals off take them off brush them and spray them in the right stuff. but thanks for the tip.

Got a bit more done the yesty and today, put the back end under again, brake lines and fuel are under as well. pulled the struts off and gave the a couple of coats of rust guard. Also cleaned up my master cylinder. decided I'm gonna spray the brake calipers so gave them a hit with primer along with the boot lid and front apron (the last bit that needed to be done) and finished off the rear quarters. and here some pics

Love these things...hope to one day own one....looking good. for now ill have to stick to stock corollas.

sorry no idea what there called, i pulled em of a wagon i got off a guy in sydney early last year. He said he got em form a wreckers in his forsale thread. that also where i got the 5 speed box and the camber tops on ke55 struts from. Ill be putting em on the ke30 when its done and ive got some jelly bean 14's for on the 55 i think ill put on, just trying to find some cheap 2nd hand tyres for em (impossible at the tire places around here it seem). this was the wags bloke had huge tires on the back with i got changed for same size as fornt...thought the drag car "look" looked shit on it.

Lol I'm a lanky 187cm tall. Yeh the heat doens tbother me to bad, i got a fan in the shed, keep me a little cooler lol. Plus I'm out at tamworth a bit and it twice as bad as here So i didnt get all the stuff doen ide planned but did some other stuff. Ran out of tar half way through doing the back half od the car so i had to go to town. 25 mins each way and stuffing around in town lost me a bit of time but aww well. Ended up gettign it all sprayed under there nice and thick. then cleaned up my gearbox and brakes with the good ol wire wheel. threw a bit of bog over the weld under the back jsut to keep it looking smooth, came up pretty good. heres some pics as usual. Not sure if i should paint the calipers red like th ecar and em stand out or just leave em bare...any thoughts? Also does anyone have a spare rubber plug for in that hole where the fork comes out? its 76x43mm in size, its a 5 speed box, not sure what off, i took it out of a ke38 but its not originally from there.

cheers seabiscuit. Here the holes all fild up with fresh metal...much better that the fiberglass rust and bog that ust to be there.....have decided i suck at welding though lol. Did this on friday, finished wire brushing underneath today and started on the bog work over the plates. should see it rolling again tomoro, hopefully with box through to wheel back one, at minimum the back end under again. anyway heres pics And this i why my sander stopped working, someone at work had electrical tape over it lol, must have just kept getting worse under there. just after i took this photo i forgot it was still plugged in and touched it...made me jump haha

Haha yeh that shit flys everywhere...i wear one of them cheap full body painters suits and still manage to get it all over me.

i recon the look better machined, thats what ide have.

Drops do you know if there the commy shocks that also fit under the back end of ke30's? sorry if this is a the wrong place to ask. Anyway nice clean car you got there cableties and nice wheels to. I vote make it a drifter, but keep it clean like it is. if that works

thats the plan...together in no time. Plans for the week: - tar the back end of the car and put axle back under it. - finish the body work at the back where i cut the rust out - gearbox under and might drop the motor back in. - and hopefully paint the inside of the car and start putting it back together. so big plans, with and see if i get it all done, will have some more piccys up tomoro ide say

yeh was a good pickup...engine was shot when i got it, tiney hole in the piston and i flogged it till i broke lol. pulled the motor out and then lost my license for 8 months (SH*T!)...so i sold the shell to some other guy in newy...not sure if he ever got it goin. would have needed a pink slip by now and i highly doubt it got through..unless he knows the right people lol. Yeh looked good form a distance, had bad rust in all the usual spots though(all quarters, roof, back door on the floor etc), one good thing is it didnt have any on the chassis.

haha women. nah but they do get thing happenin, well at least they make you buy things and run out of money lol.

mmmm wagon, had a bit of a scan through here...lookin good. had a ke38 bit under a year ago but was chokers with rust and had the ke30 2 door on my mind so i let the shell go....after i pulled the camber tops and box out and wheels off. I very much want another one though. looked like this

Looks pretty sweet, will be good to see some colour on it...hope not to many people with a ke20 know where you live or they might go missing lol.

Here one i missed before, Noltec canber tops (not in there final possy just yet) :-)

More p;ics.....I got busy today. Put a nice set of wheels that are ment for the Ke30 when its done and gave the front left quarter panel a bit of paint where it was bent up adn straightened out again...paint had flaked off and had surface rust...looks better than before. Also got the tar gun out and did the underbody on the front half of the car, gotta finish some welding on the rear quarters tomoro and then ill tar the rest. Built up most of the steering and suspension at the front, just need to get 4 new nuts for steering with the gaps in em for split pins. will do that tomoro or friday I just stuck the struts in, i will most likely pull them out at some stage and give them a fresh coat of black and probs do the calipers in the red the rest of the car will be.

its 2 door as the and is still 100% apart

that it on the thread higher up, just the shell sitting there atm. Can you see the pics? there heasp off them throughout the post, the show up on my computer. tomoro ill be taring under the front end and once its dry (1-2 hours the can says) ill start putting the front end back together, ill have more pics up tomoro night

picked up soem mor ebits today: boss kit, more bushes for the front end...go tem all now, some new monroe rear shocks and bought a daily ke55....4k-auto 3 speed-pretty much stock...some shitty wheels on it. 4k-auto 3 speed-pretty much stock...some shitty wheels on it. got some rust in the usual spots and th front left quarter has been bent and then straightened out again but pretty rough. might get another guard if one pops up. Oct rego so will easy get the e30 done by then.

FInally got some paint on.....did some more welding but the gas ran out on the tig welder so have to get some tomoro. still a bit dodgy on the old welder but at least theres good metal plates in there instead of a shitload of fiberglass and bog. heres so pics of todays work Makeshift spray booth...didi the job fine for the engine bay, wont be doing that for the body though, bit of shit still got on the wet paint but nothing major. blingen spray gun...1.4mm, recomended by the the main paint supplier in the area. Paint look a little light here...is a bit darker and nice in real....its late model commodore "Red Hot" 2 pac
