PHATKE20S Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 (edited) You've got to love the look of an old wagon and now here it is. Picked it up yesterday, what a sweet ride. Plans for 5K, 5speed, 14inch steelies & hubbies, lowered and tint. Don't know what colour to respray it yet. I'm thinking a plain colour, Non-Metallic. Not blue but, because PMP020 has already got one in blue, so i'd like to be different, if possible. Edited May 3, 2009 by PHATKE20S Quote
LittleRedSpirit Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 You always find the coolest cars mate. Well done. How about red for the old girl? Chrome looks good, whole car does really. No rust to speak of? Quote

JiP Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 Very nice mate. I can't wait to see what she turns out like. I myself am picking up my old girl tomorrow. :lolcry: They'll have to go cruising together when ready. Quote
PHATKE20S Posted November 15, 2007 Author Report Posted November 15, 2007 Awesome Jon, make sure a start a thread here... Lets bring back the few KE2x's that are left :lolcry: Before they dissappear forever :hmm: Here are some shots of the rust and dents Quote
PHATKE20S Posted November 17, 2007 Author Report Posted November 17, 2007 (edited) Ok, I've decided on RED "inspired by Matt" :y: (yet to determine which type). Autotechnica buckets, Black velour interior and heaps of chrome :lolcry: :lol: Stockies, low profile tyres (maybe with whitewalls) and lowered a little..... Will keep you all posted as the decisions are made. Edited November 18, 2007 by PHATKE20S Quote
PHATKE20S Posted November 23, 2007 Author Report Posted November 23, 2007 (edited) Hi Guys Been busy all week with work and getting my 4A-GE out of donor car (it's for one of my 2dr sedans NOT the wagon). So haven't spent any time on the Wagon. :P I have seen a few Nice colours during this week that have got me thinking. :P :) Edited November 23, 2007 by PHATKE20S Quote
7shades Posted November 23, 2007 Report Posted November 23, 2007 I have a red 626 coupe in need of paint, and although I'm not the biggest fan of red cars I can't be arsed stripping it to change the colour so I've been looking around for a nicer red to lay over it. I'm liking the new mazda reds... 3, 6, and RX8 have a very nice one with a gold metallic in the clearcoat and I think it would look porn on an old wags like yours. Quote

PHATKE20S Posted December 4, 2007 Author Report Posted December 4, 2007 Hey Guys and Gals, just thought i'd update my thread. Bought my wagon some Black/Gray Autotechnica Seats yesterday, it's Christmas after all. :P They look great, now i'm going to match the interior to them. :jamie: Will post some pictures later in the week. Still undecided on exact Colour paint for her???? :lolcry: There's some awesome paint getting around lately. It's so difficult to choose :) Quote
