logan did his, look just fine. he forgot a thing or 2 but thats because he's not patient enough

i'm doing my prep myself... never done it before in my life! should be good fun

i have a 4k in my donor car (starlet i bought for the passenger door) its in auckland though. if i had a scanner i could scan some pages from my haynes manual... there is a guy on club-k that wanted to sell me his for $30!!! good buy, mine just cost me $60!!!!!

nah, i just planned one day of getting that plate but that dick kinda got it before me the name just kinda stuck

well i think my dad just left to see if he can pick up THA BEAST so ill let you guys know what its like if he gets it home

mine is incl primer

ill show you pics of the starlet with sand blasting. they know what they are doing so yeah... they are $700 in Henderson (west auckland) EDIT: my dads car should come out today so when that lazy bugger gets home from his holiday ill post up some pics

uhm, NO if your scared it has too much water in it or if you want to be sure, just run a couple of liters of petrol through it

i did a rough calculation and if i spend most my wages on my car ill have it on the road mid-end november! thats with exteriour and interiour done but engine still to go at a later date! after i do my course or else i wont have any money

fair enough man

this is the old man's car. my mum thinks its her car so she'll be in most of the photo's sorry but havn't got any without her so just block her out of the photo

ok guys, here's my starlet. these are some of the pics of me stripping ti down to start it's pannel and paint. here are some pics of the car when it came from the sandblasters, also, my new wheels that i bought of LowLancer, and then the photo's after the under coat was put on, with the old wheels again well, thats it for now Thanks to ImageShack for Free Image Hosting

my dads anglia is getting sand blasted next week and mine the week after. he wont do the roof, boot or bonnet as it might warp. he's charging us 700 each and that includes a coat of primer but the stuff he's using is "crap" so ill supply some for him. he specialises in cars and he hasnt had a problem so far so thats sweet. ill try and get some sort of warranty on paper though

hey lowlancer, got any more info on bead blasting? thanks for the heads up sykoV6

me and my dad are working on our cars. we have stripped out his, the 57 ford Anglia and mine is going for the same treatment later this arve. Instead of actually sanding it down we wanna get it sand blasted instead. well at least the inside, just to get into the hard to reach places etc. is this a good plan? and where do i go in auckland? price is important but workmanship has to be decent!

petrol for inside the block, doesnt rust and degreaser inside a block wouldnt be my first choice aye... just incase

why do u want factory? just go to appco and tell them what you want...

kink = not good alex

just make the carb bowl a bit bigger also, make it stick out of the bonnet so it gets awesome cooling

yeah, GO SUPERCHEAP!

i quite like them, nice and simple

bang on! you could also read fire hose instead of garden hose! works well

or have the man choke out 2/3 for the first 10-15 minutes... damn petrol is expansive that way

if your car runs fine you dont some cars do need them

i know. but would it be a mission to make it carb?
