silverra23 Posted January 29, 2014 Author Report Posted January 29, 2014 Tonight I finally lived up to my promise to Don, the previous owner of the Crown, that I would bring it down to show him when it was on the road. He was very excited, rushing out with his camera to take a few photos so he could prove to his family that someone had bought it and had it running again. He was not a fan of the red wheels, and found the rising sun flag dash mat hilarious! He hit me up for a ride around the block, so we went off for a cruise. He commented that the lowering had certainly made it a harsher ride. He loved the interior. It was an entertaining hour or so - he was full of tales and jokes and I came away a little sad that I am selling her! It drives so well and gets so much attention on the road, its very very cool. Anyways here is Don posing with the car. His smile says it all. 1 Quote
B.L.Z.BUB Posted January 29, 2014 Report Posted January 29, 2014 (edited) I don't care who buys this. This photo is amazing. I hope I come across my old cars like this and I hope I look even classier EDIT: This is why I love this community. EDIT 2: I went back and reminded myself of this. From the trailer to the end. I have to say this is one of those car appreciation threads that will resonate to me for ages. Edited January 29, 2014 by B.L.Z.BUB Quote
maccat01 Posted February 3, 2014 Report Posted February 3, 2014 love it mate... Like a jap ECTO1 ghostbusters car :-D. Anybody bought this yet? Quote
silverra23 Posted February 16, 2014 Author Report Posted February 16, 2014 Well the good news is she is off to a good home. A guy in TCCAV who has loved it from day one has bought it. He picked it up today. It will go well in his custodianship, and probably get the motorvation she needs to be a truly cool cruiser. Quote
decoop Posted March 16, 2014 Report Posted March 16, 2014 I know you sold this but, Do you happen to remember the pin size for the lowering blocks? And how'd you go finding a tailgate handle? I need one for my ute. Quote

And how'd you go finding a tailgate handle? I need one for my ute. Sorry I don't remember now. I think I ended up using a drill to open the hole up a little from what ever I bought - Toyota Hilux ones I think. Tailgate handle no good. Crownman in Sydney was looking and thought he had one, but I never managed to get it off him. Quote
