As does the battery tray

Once i get the cab off and attack the cancerous monster that currently resides in it im thinking of widened steels with flappers and keep the factory wheel nut covers on.

I was thinking of re powering with a 18rg so i can have twin cam goodness and it bolts right into the place of the power house that currently sits in the engine bay.

It has more rust than i thought :x Ahwell i guess you get that with old things.

According to an ird letter i found, someone in gisbourne owes $7550 in child support :lol:

Decided 6 cylinders are better than 4 so i bought this off a mate who drove into a bank at 80+k's.

Hasn't been driven for a month, chucked a battery in it and drove it onto the car trailer with the guard putting grooves in the tyre etc, drove it off the trailer and into my driveway in the same fashion.

1G-GE powerhouse, MAP sensor motor from GA70 supra aparently.

Mr Dori and i gave the muppet a hand to wire it up, needless to say the wiring is pretty rough as we didnt give a fuck, i'm surprised it still ran.
