ROFL @ 7shades.

 

Here we are living it up in cairns and hes talking like a lebbo. Probably like 3 kebab shops in all of cairns owned by lebbo's.

 

don't see many getting around :)

 

interesting shiz! Paint is sooooo Wierd! So many things to take in.

[greenmac80]

if you plan to do it yourself and you've never sprayed with a gun before go for acrylic.

[Jesseb369]

I'll have a friend to do it. I just have to buy all the shit.

 

Ive been looking for the toyota paint code and I cannot find it. I saw it once. Had like ae71 then branched down into things like auto or manual and trim and colours and stuff like that.

Two letter code.

Its on the build plate :lolcry:

 

Two letter code.

 

 

:) I think the paint code is the first two letters, followed by the trim colour and axle code.

 

Jesse, the proper name for the paint is called "Glacier" and its metallic.

 

 

You're colour is on the bottom rh corner.

 

Doesn't that red car familiar :laff:

Thanks fellas. Thanks heaps as well to you there MintKe70! Glacier and indeed it is metallic.

 

ill just try and buy what they used back then. Was it Acryllic?

 

I don't want anything FLASH but you know. Just to get me by and something that looks decent, sprayed from a gun.

[greenmac80]

no idea if its acrylic more than likely it is. then you'll have to use an acrylic clear and buff it to a perfect shine as with an acrylic metallic you won't be able to buff it.

Reconditioned my Window Wiper's. Look awesome now. Not rusty and old!

[Jesseb369]

Went to see the car this afternoon. Stopped into supercheap auto on the way and got some filler primer, sandpaper and colour coded paint to match the car.

 

Wet and dryed the surface rust and found some bog in the guards and below the rear passenger door. Its all good but there isnt much in there and its not to bad!

 

masked up the windows and chrome and sprayed the paint on. Looks alright but its not very pretty. Thanks!

I changed out my Transmission Fluid this afternoon. Feels better yet again. I put about 2L in there. Is that alright???

 

Roady and rego soon hopefully!

 

I also discovered some rust that has just been painted over to stop further oxidization, now I just want to know whether to sand it back then put rust converter stuff on it and then what?

 

I don't know the process as to getting rid of the rust because its not all the way through its just little flakes.

 

Any steps would be appreciated !

What i did to my surface rust was just chipped out as much of the loose rust as i could then wire brushed it, sanded it and then applied 2 coats of rust converter, i let the rust converter dry then lightly sanded the rusty patches again to give to bog sumthing to stick to, i then applied a light layer of bog. After it dried i just sanded it till it was smooth and blended it in with the rest of the body work, then i applied some primer surfacer and some colour coded spray and presto good as new hahahaha.

FOUND SOME RUST :P !!!!

 

 

it was all bogged up in the left hand side, rear wheel arch/well.

 

In the front of the wheel at the bottom to near the rear door. On bit the size of a tennis ball and on going through the fender about a 20cent piece.

 

And at the rear of the tire down the bottom where the tyre Jack usually would sit. Down the bottom there. all the way through.

 

I'm not pissed because I have a welder and steel at hand. But I am just gonna buy a sand blaster gun thing for a compressor and do all of the wheel arch's and prep them and sound proof them like one of the fellas has done on his thread on rollaclub rides, looks overrated and will last for ever :y:

 

ill get some pics of it soon anddddddd! i got my horn going and put my new wiper blades on the reco'd wiper's.

 

I was going to get a roady today. Called and they said bring it in thursday. If I have the rust done then I will take it in on thursday.

 

Also found out that the rear left hand wheel is bent.

Oh noooo.... Rust in a 26 year old car in the tropics :y:

 

Those bits were bubbling slightly when I rubbed them back and resealed them... I didn't want to dig any further in case I found what you found :bash:

 

 

Still got those interior parts here too...
