When l first picked it up.

Cleaned up the engine bay. You wouldn't know it but the engine was fully rebuilt and tickled up a bit 20 years ago and never run. I have started it and it purred like a kitten haha. Will put an exhaust on it before l run it again so l can atempt to run it in. I took the rocker cover off and its like brand new in there. Also has a brand new 32/36 webber, starter and alt. Dizzy has had work too with all new bits.

Cheers. Yip real solid. Wouldn't of thought so when l first saw it again. Just a couple of patches to sort.

The magnum stuff will be pulled from the cross eyed sister. I have other plans for her at a later date For now she sits and waits while l finish collecting parts for her.

Found an old set of bonnet hinges l had left over when l sold my hb wagon. Be good to be able to open the bonnet. Will find some bolts and chuck them on tomorrow. Also making my list of things to sort for cert, re-reg and wof. brakes, exhaust, clutch adjustment, tires, sort the battery placement ( boot ) and get tank cleaned out so l can run it properly. Fix the small amount of rust. Its pretty good really.

Very happy with the way its looking atm. Think il matt black the bonnet and boot?

Using 1500 wet and dry with a big of jiff and a lot of elbow grease cleans up white paint work pretty good. What ways do others use? Always looking for easier ways

1500 wet and dry and jiff. Got most of the body cleaned up.

currently the 1900 will be staying put till i see how it goes. Id rather not cut it up. I have some magnum front end bits to put on. Maybe put in a 5 speed box?

Gave it a clean...

I started on cleaning it up a bit...

I first owned this in 1996. I put a 283 chevy in it and had some fun. Pulled the engine after a mate crashed his and sold the rolling body to him. He put his running gear in it (1900 Commy engine and magnum diff etc) but never finished it. I had been on at him to sell it back to me for a while. A few months back he messaged me to come get it as he was never going to finish it. This is how it looked when I picked it up

there was a supra page that i was a member of...? mainly 7mgte stuff that i wanted but had other stuff too. toyota is pretty good at using left overs for diff models aye. do you want it for your engine or whole car? if mainly for your engine just google search etc
