  1. Chur fellas. will look good once it's all painted up - tray will need a fair bit of work Need to do an actual thread update lewl..
  2. Took this piece for a VTNZ wof just before - failed on a few things unfortunately but fortunately they are all easy fixes. Drivers seatbelt is starting to frey Rear brake imbalance LHS end cap missing off bumper (I had taken this off as it was not the factory item and was touching the guard as it was slightly longer. will just cut er down until my new bumper arrives on the boat) Still gotta paint the bonnet and tray as you can see Discussion Fred: //oldschool.co.nz/index.php?showtopic=25299
  3. and the gimp mask? Was 50/50 on this meat and needed to save $$ so piked - looks like a good turn out though. I guess next months will be wagnats?
  4. Nice work fella keep it up! would like to see this low though hah
  5. Just found these http://www.ebay.com/itm/79-80-81-82-83-TOYOTA-TRUCK-DOOR-GLASS-REVEAL-MOLDING-WEATHERSTRIP-68160-89104-/181047682076?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Year%3A1980|Make%3AToyota|Model%3APickup&hash=item2a2748641c&vxp=mtr#shId so would be intersted in finding out what shipping would be like - you should prob get these as well as windscreen as I know mine are buggered so yours prob are too. I will prob just get mine off Basis as I need new ones now rather than later however called them before and went straight to answerhone - will ring in the morn
  6. Looks to be a good buy - be interested to see what shipping is. I'm looking for some outer weatherstrips for my RN30 lux and see basis have Toyota ones http://www.basisnz.co.nz/Products/Doors/Weatherstrips/WEATHERSTRIP-%28216-042%29.aspx and notice they have windscreen rubbers for $220 http://www.basisnz.co.nz/Products/Window-rubber-seals/Windscreen-seal/SEAL-%28218-706%29.aspx so `$50 USD would be all g
  7. Looking good Allan - makes me want to update my project threads.
  8. Cool wee cars the 2dr sedans - do love that mustard though! look forward to the updates
  9. Yea - bare metel respray is great in theory, and you KNOW exactally what you are working with when you do one HOWEVER 90% of painting a car is in the panel work - and just like anything, the better the starting point (ie a nice straight door) the less work you have to do. I guess being so young you have more time on your side rather than money, and it would be a good learning curve. but if it was me, I would save the time and spend the money on a straighter door - as Rookie has pointed out, KP doors are fairly common comparitively to others
  10. If you're going to be rebogging (which trust me, you will need to do now) then i would say get a decent long sander as this is a large flat panel something like that - should be stocked at your local automotive paint store you will prob have to do a few skims of bog to get it straight again - panel work is not fun hahah your 'little dents' prob wont pop out very well and if they do you will need to bog them anyways as there is no way the panel will be perfectally flat again. best of luck dude
  11. needs flapper stack. hope you dont need to pull er to bits to replace seals etc
  12. needa get some bloody tyres on them first fair bit of poke on them dawg? what tyres you got lined up?
  13. vids on youtube but yea, they spin it outta flat sheet
  14. shit yea these are cool wee cars. wagons must be rare as rocking horse poos round these ways
  15. it would be sad if you ditched the wellside. they are pretty bloody rare and more sort after - you should be able to sell it easy enough though as it's LWB and most of the NZ new ones are just that (*N40/*N41 etc). but i vote keep the wellside.
  16. probably an old man that didnt want to calm down.
  17. soo sunny, but the clouds, they will come! ken for feeds.
  18. Had this on my watchlist when it was on Trademe (as im an RN30/40 piner and this had a wellside) look forward to seeing some progress and welcome to the forum!! (I also have one of these only a short wheel base version. project thread on here too)
  19. SO 1 NOW OUT OF THE RUNNING...ANOTHER OUT OF THE RUNNING BY DEFAULT (LEWL KIDDING SIMMO)? JUST YOU AND ME BUDDY?!!
  20. WE COULD COMBINE 'SEEDY AL' AND 'MAN OF VANS' INTO 'SEEDY VAL' OK IT'S NOT THAT GREAT A NAME CHANGE BUT ITS CAPZLOCK THURZDAY AND THIS VAN IS COOL! GOOD TO SEE IT RESERECTED AGAIN, WILL HAVE TO SUPPLY HORSIEBITES TO THE INDIVIDUAL RESPONSABLE FOR LETTING IT GET INTO THIS STATE. HARRAH!
