:D Looks great mate. I love the the colour!! Looking forward to seeing the progress :y:

[Trent-KE30]

for freeeeeee :y:

 

sweet panno.

 

cheers, scott

[JiP]

Yeah, thats the standard commercial dash. All panno's got the brown dash be it early or late. Actually I think it might include wagons too. (KE36 only) As for KE38's they were all black.

[Trent-KE30]

Sweet, so a black dash should pop in sweetly hey?

[JiP]

Yeah, the only difference was the colours. That and they wouldn't have come with a rear demister or radio as far as I know.

[Trent-KE30]

Sweet man , also are doors the same as 2 door sedan doors?

[JiP]

Yes they are. Your doors need replacing?? How are the trims?? Glass?? Rear bar?? These are the items that are hard to locate to replace. Hope yours are good.

[Trent-KE30]

Doors are pretty good, only surface rust, trims are still intact just need coat of paint, rear bar in surprisingly good condition which was a relief lol, front window cracked but I'm guessing same as sedan? thanks jiP

[KEhendo]

how often do you mow the floor? :y:

[Trent-KE30]

Yeah man its got moss on it lol, its all getting ripped this weekend lol.!

[JiP]

Yeah, windscreen is the same as the sedan and other wagons. NOT the hardtops or KE50's.

Panno's are staging a comeback....awesome...

Not a bad score for the price.....

BTW i like those new rims mate :y:

[Trent-KE30]

That's it Pano's are the bomb lol, watch this space going to be alot of progress.

 

Cheers guys
