This cars turned into a mission...espicially after havin a nose to tail 2 weeks ago haha. but in the meanwhile as its off the road i am starting to take the gearbox out thats in it thats munched, and replace it with a 5speed kp61 starlet box then slap my center console in and wire up my headunit and speakers when its on the road, all i need now is a valance panel and radiator and the pointy peice that sits ontop of the valance panel that covers the holes in the valance panel. here are some progress pics...well not progesss cos its gotten worse..so here are some pics.

Just after i got it painted matt black..
