yeah so the wagon has no brakes and where i needed it by the shed it has to go downhill so, me and dad used his commy as the brakes, so here i am sittin in it slowly rollin down then all of a sudden goin pretty quick thought uh oh and the tow rope had snapped piece of crap and so i just held on and bam into the door the only thing i was worried about was my celica on the other side hahaha.

 

 

 

now is all thats needed is remove the bastard flywheel things are on tight!, get it machined and possibly lightened.

then strip the sedan and install all the manual gear then its good to go!

Now thats a CLEAN KE70!!

[MattyZ]

yeah has 120 genuine ks on the clock too, bitta rust usual spots bottom of rear quarters fix that and give a few patches a respray.

 

my main plans for it is to do stuff like wheels exhaust, but only stuff that can be reversed back to stock, interior is in good nick apart from the passanger seat base so ill look for a replacement or retrim.

[MattyZ]

got my clutch and clutch cable today which i ordered last night, Autopro in gawler are a great mob to get parts through.

 

some pics of the goodies

 

 

[MattyZ]

so i was hoping to have it manual by this weekend change of plans

was undoing the pedal box bolts as it hasnt been removed the bolts still had the seal and needed to be cracked so they were tight as a nuns yu hu.

was undoing it then the seal broke and my hand smacked into the metal that the dash pad screws into, so now have 10 stitches in my thumb was down to the bone/joint, and a splint so i can't bend it for a week.

[MattyZ]

[Evan G]

[MattyZ]

Noticed you mentioned something in another thread about towing. If you plan on doing any sort of towing with your KE the I'd highly reccommend AGAINST a buttom clutch of any sort. :yes:
