67Rolla Finally Back On The Road!

[homers_ke17]

Oh sh*t, I'm in the same boat, ill give you guys the heads up

on the ke15 rubbers from lilavadee in 3 weeks when i get the

car back from paint.

Hi,

I got the rubber kit off ebay for my KE15 and fits like a finger up your bum. Tight, doesn't leak water, all clips there and fit, rubber not perished or cracking. ETC.

 

Hardest part was gluing the boot rubber on. The original Toyota rubber clipped onto the boot. But I did find his kit very good in fact.

 

But again I have not tried the windscreen rubbers yet just doors and boot.

 

Cheers

Cameron

Ok the screen rubbers did fit, but the indent for the chrome strip wasn't quite right... so it is usable, but not good enough for my car.

Work just got a bead blaster... so spare 3k is getting Robo-washed, then into the bead blaster :jamie:

 

Think I'll paint it all red?? This will be spares for the blue KE20, what colour do you all think I should go?

Started the bead blasting but the beads we've got are too fine. We'll be changing that soon, stay tuned :D

[67Rolla-Ken]

OK turns out the beads are fine, just needed changing :D

 

It's all come up quite nice. I'm going to paint all the bits in clear, very happy with the bare colours :|

Looking good there mate!

[Doogs]

Looks the goods mate, be great to see this all together in the car.

[67Rolla-Ken]

:D These parts were to be kept as spares, but I might put the thing together to go in the KE20.

 

I'll change the welsh plugs and get a full rebuild kit for it... got no money to do it now.

[67Rolla-Ken]

OK spare 3k is all painted :P

 

 

I'm happy with the clear.

now thats a beauty right there :)

[67Rolla-Ken]

She's not bad for my spare engine :)

[67Rolla-Ken]

67Rolla is currently at the trimmers getting a new hood lining made, carpets cut in and the door inserts fitted :y:

 

Wiring is half done, new digital gearbox sender is sorted.

 

New screen rubbers are on order from Clark Rubber.

 

I have a quote for zinc plating all the hinges and the bonnet stand for $80, will do that next week or the week after.

 

Hope to have the car semi complete in a couple of weeks.

I say semi because it has to go back to the paint shop for a few touch-ups and I still need front parker surrounds, a dash pad, new seatbelts and I'm not happy with the aftermarket side indicators (want original KE10-11 ones!).

 

If anyone can help with these items let me know. :dance: Mob:0424 517 735

[67Rolla-Ken]

Updates!!

 

Couldn't fit the door inserts cos I hadn't finished the door internals ;) but the rest is done and in.

 

 

Very happy with the hood lining, looks perfect! I can't remember what covered the hood lining edge on the middle pillars??

 

Oh and here's what she looked like on the truck over to the trimmers

 

Starting to look like a car again! ....now I gotta take the front quarters and doors off to get to the hinges :)
