fuel Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 This car may look in a bit of a mess now, but hopefully when I'm finished with it, it will be all good. The previous owners took this (once) perfectly good car, stripped out the interior, took off the air filters, painted it wacky colours, scratched their names into the paint work and used it as a paddock car. It has a 1600cc 2T-B twin carb motor coupled to a T50 5 speed box. Here's a few pics: My plans are to (probably in order) * fix up the clutch - needs new slave cylinder, clutch kit possibly * sort out interior - needs door cards, back seats, rear seat belts, sun visors and other misc bits * repair the small amounts of rust, do a bit of panel beating and primer her up ready for a paint * look into replacing the 2T-B with a 4A-GE or a 3T-GTE If anyone has parts for a TE71 spare, let me know please. chur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuel Posted April 28, 2006 Author Share Posted April 28, 2006 Update time As most of you probably know it was painted matt black last year Anyway I finally got around to starting the panel beating and rust repairs before I start painting it. Current 2T-B engine missing the air filters Dash cluster Tinted out and with my old 16" BBS wheels on Am still building the 2T-GEU to go into it, but haven't got pics yet.

fuel Posted February 24, 2007 Author Share Posted February 24, 2007 Man time flys. So I've been playing around with painting some panels to see what white would look like: I think white seems to suit it so I'll paint the rest of it the same gloss white My list of things to do: Finish fixing rust paint rest of car get WOF + rego fit some jap style 14x8" wheels and stretched 185/60 tyres dump it on its ass with TA61 front struts finish rebuilding 2T-GEU and chuck it in find disc brake diff for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuel Posted June 2, 2008 Author Share Posted June 2, 2008 wow I haven't updated this post in like.. forever. Anyway, at the end of last year it was looking like this: I stored it in my parents garage just to get it out of the way as I clearly wasn't working on it. Sold the 2T-GEU I had as it wasn't worth rebuilding, but just got a 2T-GEU on twin mikuni-solex's off rollas22 for it, hopefully will motivate me to actually finish it. Cleaned it up a bit, think it's had a rebuild at some point as most things look new (frost plugs, water pump, gaskets/seals etc) Discussion thread here bitches - viewtopic.php?f=18&t=5208 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
