tipsi Posted October 1, 2009 Author Report Posted October 1, 2009 Hey Scotty, Did you get my email sent to OKE020? Any way colour is growing on me big time, may even paint the car same colour just with metallic. Will see, fair way off yet. Cheers Quote
tipsi Posted October 4, 2009 Author Report Posted October 4, 2009 (edited) Got Busy over the weeken, was battling for some motivation this weekend after work but got through it. Stretched the rear gaurds for my 28x9 slicks, fixed 1 patch of rust, filled in petrol cap, washers, antenna and mirror holes. Edited April 15, 2013 by tipsi Quote
Tally Posted October 5, 2009 Report Posted October 5, 2009 Mate great work, love these updates!!! Man those wheels fill the guards well :) will be a monster thats for sure... Quote

reTRD Posted October 5, 2009 Report Posted October 5, 2009 (edited) i think you'll find that is due to the cost of the motors, even import blocks (in basically unknown condition) sell for $5g. I well known workshop built 20B sold for over $10g recently and that didnt even include inlet manifolds you think 10k is bad check out this link for a rota up for sale here in NZ ATM http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-244845930.htm Edited October 5, 2009 by reTRD Quote
PMP020 Posted October 5, 2009 Report Posted October 5, 2009 excellent!!! any progress is welcome progress. do you have any close up picks of the rear gaurds? maybe even an inside shot, just so we can see how much you had to pump it out? keep it up!!!! :) cheers, scott Quote
tipsi Posted November 10, 2009 Author Report Posted November 10, 2009 Progress has slowed over the last 3 weeks due to the exspense of the gearbox and rear end, how ever back into it now, will update with some pics. I havent pumped the gaurds just rolled the lips under, flared them and extended the gaurd by 70mm. I will dummy fit the engine, gearbox, and engine plate in coming weeks and throw some more pictures up. (new tunnell will have to be removeable to access the clutch... Been busy straightening rear quarters after spot welding, hoping to straighten and fill them this weekend and put in primer. Quote
KETURBO25 Posted November 10, 2009 Report Posted November 10, 2009 Thanks for the kind words. As much as I love the sleeper looka and the "original appearance of a car like Scotts , mine will be all out drag with lexan, wheelie bars and slicks, but representing the toyota badge... lol. Cheers unbelieveable, this car is gonna go like a shower of shit, good for you m8. f@$kIN BEAST!!! Quote
