This is my 330 Series 260c Brougham, It was born in 1981. When I got it, it had a 3 speed auto. Someone before me had swaped the motor for a L28 (Instead of the stock L26).

Did some minor maintenance on it when I got it. Drove it for about a year then put a manual box in it.

Got bored of the colour and wanted to see how much rust was under the tired paint. Painted it flat black.

Heres some photos of the car from new years/march 2010. Also photos of paint strip back and body filler and primer.

This is my spare L28 Motor which I think would be fun to make a stroker out of. Here it is setup with a Twin Turbo Manifold I got late 2010 sometime which I will use at sometime.

Heres a video of her from late 2010.

Video:

I have welded up my exhaust using the twin turbo manifold and two turbo exhaust housings with one side of each blanked out with metal plates.

Got some phat new second hand tyres that are 235 wide I think and put them on the original wheels. They baloon out and look like doughnuts.

Installed an OS tacho.

Installed an oil cooler that has what I believe to be the best looking braided lines (Just plain stainless steel end fittings).

After new years 2010/2011 my hitachi carb shat itself (The float bowl valve failed and it was having other issues and I couldn't find any bits for it. So I purchased a Megasquirt 3 ECU with MS3x on a V3.0PCB that I have successfully soldered together just need to suss out tach sensors etc. I intend to run coil packs I stole off a RB20. Have switched the Twin Turbo manifold out for a single turbo so I can get it running a little easier. I have also bought a new Bosch 044 fuel pump (apparently good for 700hp even though I currently have about 70hp).

There is also some updated pictures of it since it is now black.
