KKtrips Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Any engine bay shots of it completed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Level7 Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 NOT FAIR!Whats in it?????????? Lol, nothing flash, just got the standard motor back in it. Got sick of pushing it in and out of the garage to get the mountain bikes out. Just spent any spare engine cash on a trip to japan next year, so would have to sacrifice snowboarding in the weekends to get something fun in the engine bay, I'd rather be at the snow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Level7 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 yeah that orange wagon used to be mine, was my surf hack back in the mid 90's then they started getting a bit dodge to leave at the beach, so made it shiny, rebuilt and just got on the road before the 4nrota nats back in 98. The front end on this white wagon is the old nose cone off that orange one, had a earlier style 10a nosecone so put that on it to sell, orange one is still around, has had a blingy interior put in it now, and heaps of bits chromed, but other that that is still the same I think. Live central ish. over a fence or two from rot808.. haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoozin Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 This is a true thing of beauty. Inspiration also, I like the way you've done things and hope to pursue a similar result some time. Knock off TE37V's, well... just remove the stickers and I think we'll be cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
