LittleRedSpirit Posted October 1, 2009 Author Report Posted October 1, 2009 sounds like one hell of a build iam very close to nearing the deal with a mate for a ta22 celica and then my build will start awsome pick up and i take it will be the little red spirit 2 without the red part and beening repacled with white lol can't wait to read more and see more pics what a score you got Thanks undertaker. I'm sure your ta22 will be awesome too. Those are some nice cars, and better looking than a rolla.

LittleRedSpirit Posted October 2, 2009 Author Report Posted October 2, 2009 how dare u mat rollas are beautiful take it back Hope you like how they look from the rear, cause thats all youre gonna see of mine. lolz. Nah seriously, a stock ke70 isnt good looking. Add dished wheels, lower it, some nice touches and they look as cool as anything else. Most TA22s Ive seen didnt get done up with the whole jap style unfortunately. They look terrible in wild colours with chromies, IMO. They look great with nice period specific wheels and overrated standard paint, maybe even a gilly lip as it suits the rounded off shape of the ta22.

LittleRedSpirit Posted October 3, 2009 Author Report Posted October 3, 2009 speaking of lips can u put a subaru on aside for me , and 2 tail lights i need them pleassseee No worries, Phil. Consider it done. Mungi mods came over today and did all the rust repairs in the AE71. Its getting a little filler tomorrow to tidy it up, but who cares, its all sealed up with real metal. Now thers nothing stopping me, except a rwc. Now that there is no rust, it wont be an issue. Woot. Ill post the pics of the work a bit later if I can work out how to connect the phone with the computer. :)

Jesseb369 Posted October 4, 2009 Report Posted October 4, 2009 how did your weekend go? get anything done with the car?
LittleRedSpirit Posted October 4, 2009 Author Report Posted October 4, 2009 how did your weekend go? get anything done with the car? Yeah man, we repaired the rust. Read the above posts. Its solid as. :)
Jesseb369 Posted October 4, 2009 Report Posted October 4, 2009 yeah i read that. I was just seeing if you had done anything further. but good progress Mate :)
LittleRedSpirit Posted October 5, 2009 Author Report Posted October 5, 2009 (edited) yeah i read that. I was just seeing if you had done anything further. but good progress Mate ;) Heres some pics for you jesse. :) I scrubbed and guernied out the boot today. It wasnt a fun job but it had a good 25 years worth of crud inside. Its much tidier now. There was a lot of mud under the rear end of this car, makes me wonder... Oh and I found some more rust in it. Nothing in the outer shell, but in the back wheel arch on the left hand side. Theres a bit of metal just not there, but it doesnt feel that chronic. Bring the welder when you come over, Terry. lol. Rollas. Just when you remove the rust... theres more. Terry sent me photo of the ssr mk2rs that hes fixing up for me. New bolts, a polish and a good blast to clean off the 15 layers of crap paint. Coming along nicely. Edited October 5, 2009 by LittleRedSpirit
