So cool man. The round lamps on these are waaaaaaaay better looking, a shame it also means a 4 cylinder but such is.

That scoop was beyond horrific.

[rxtoy]

oh hell yes! so much better driving fun without that sitting in the corner of my eye frowning back at me

[Snoozin]

Yeah this is unreal awesome, proportionally the ones with the short noses look better I reckon.

[rxtoy]

i'd love to park it up next to a long nose one, just so i could see the actual difference. can't be much in it.

 

don't know of any other 40 series on the road in WA though. a mates brother has got a project MS45, maybe if that ever sees the road we can compare.

 

cheers

Looking good man. Those wheels look alright too.

Good ol' mexi-blanket seats aye.

[rxtoy]

Standard ones are just plain boring vinyl, no detailing at all. I've got some orange Naugahyde that came as part of a deal that might make its way in there. Just not sure how much orange I can handle.

Cheers

There's two facelift MS45 sedans that I know of, one is a members car @ruff kunt automotive From memory

no pre facelift (round taillights, same as mine) have shown their face but who knows what's hiding in sheds

You still got this I take it? I have recently acquired Josh's 1967 silver crown, now dereg and very rusty. And I bought a white 1966 crown which is very respectful condition besides paint. 

Keen to find some bits to tidy up the old silver 1967 crown like a windscreen for starters....

Swapped it for a Datsun a couple years back, it’s still around apparently but I haven’t seen it for ages

 

theres a page on Facebook who does Classic automotive glass that had them for 40 series crowns, their stock list hasn’t been updated for years but did say sold out. Could be worth messaging them
