65ens Posted September 4, 2006 Author Report Posted September 4, 2006 not doing any engine mods to the crown....unless it blows up and then ill consider my engine swap options. its more of a slow cruiser type of thing for me....ive retrimmed some of the interior in plush purple material......heres a pic of the retrimmed parcel shelf with new speakers. the bit in the middle is the lid for the fridge/cooler box and the other vent is for the air purifier or some garbage haha. ive retrimmed the tops of the doors in the same material and put some nice pimpstyle chrome dice doorlocks haha.

Rolla__Boy Posted September 4, 2006 Report Posted September 4, 2006 Didn't you know they have fridges? Quote
JiP Posted September 4, 2006 Report Posted September 4, 2006 Nope. I once saw a corona at the wreckers. A 90's one. Had to be an import. It has a wierd cooler in the console. Â Is that from the crown?? Â I'd rather pull out my passenger seat and put in a full size bar fridge. Â Â <Maybe be not. Quote
65ens Posted September 5, 2006 Author Report Posted September 5, 2006 yeah comes with fridge in parcel shelf....good enough for about 4 stubbies i reckon...altho the bar fridge is a good idea haha. Quote

JiP Posted September 5, 2006 Report Posted September 5, 2006 That'd be a bit hard to reach for a beer/bourbon while driving. Quote

65ens Posted September 9, 2006 Author Report Posted September 9, 2006 lol hey mate great work , sounds like you have been watching "pimp my ride" shows eh? also how much did you pay for the overrated coupe??? I'm looking for one atm. i paid 1350 for the coupe....guy that was moving interstate. here's the latest pic of the crown....havent put most of the trim bak on yet Quote
Chet Posted September 10, 2006 Report Posted September 10, 2006 That looks hell sweet! get some interior pictures up when you've put the trim on.. how much did you pay for the crown? are you going to have some sort of hydraulics in style of the true lowriders? Quote
65ens Posted September 11, 2006 Author Report Posted September 11, 2006 paid 750 for the crown. no hydros or anything at this stage.....its not registered yet so gota wait til i get it roadworthied....the wheels are scrubbing already tho. Quote
65ens Posted October 22, 2006 Author Report Posted October 22, 2006 just some updates for those interested in the crown...finally got it registered the other day then took it straight home and put the 20s back on :) ....need to get some spacers for the wheels though because at the moment they are rubbing on the chassis on the inside of the tyres. getting branigans to measure it up and put the spacers on and lower it at the same time, should be done by next week some time. got the rear muffler removed and replaced with straight pipe with twin angle cut tips, just to give it a bit of a note. still hav to work out what to do with the missing trim...I'm keen to get chrome strips on the bumpers and along the sides rather than black rubber but just need to find a place that will do it.
