Jif 140 Report post Posted May 29, 2011 I've always wanted to see one of these roof choped hint hint Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evan 5,055 Report post Posted May 29, 2011 yea it was originally an auto but it came with a manual pedal box and half a dozen gearbox crossmembers. haha sitting inside it theres not much roof to chop... personally I think it would look henious. more keen to do something along the lines of yutas 240z but slightly different. wont be doing it to this shell though.

Raizer 17,279 Report post Posted June 27, 2011 Would you know if this ever spent any time in Gisborne in its past? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evan 5,055 Report post Posted June 28, 2011 Would you know if this ever spent any time in Gisborne in its past? I dont know about Gisborne carjam doesnt give out the whereabouts info any more, I got it from Tauranga, the guy i got it from said he got it from Rotorua and the green panels apparently came off a crashed car in wellington. think you know it? EDIT: it also has some sorta old fashioned green/pink sticker on the windscreen from 2003 (when it last had a WOF) anyway found the piece of paper from the police in the car and it says the car was living in Wellington then.

danger 34,092 Report post Posted July 21, 2011 I think those howa aircon things must have been an option. Mine had one too but I removed it. Check for rust above your door hinges on the body and in the footwell when it starts to slope upwards where the chassis rail is underneath. Oh and in that curve just above the bumper on the inside of your boot. If no rust there, fishoil those spots anyway Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
