Damn, that is really friggin' nice. Nicer than the TA22 Celica I reckon!

 

[ygoslo]

15x8 and 9 Watanabes in gunmetal would do the trick I reckon.

Saw this parked at Gawler, Lee, on the way back from Drift Australia. Got a price on it, or any other mods??

 

[Hotwire]

Well I was going to try keep it a secret as I wanted badly to buy it BUT as the wife said no way:

Asking price is $8,000
Full bare metal respray in capricorn mica - Shaved locks all around
All original stainless custom red interior.
Has a 70s muscle car theme - my own styling of a gto .
2.6l astron twin carbys worked engine
5 speed manual .
Scorpion front struts and brakes
New gas inserts rear are teleflo adjustables.
Sony stereo alpine dd drives and amps orion 12 " sub.
Only driven in summer
Done about 2000km since rebuild 5 yrs ago.
17" tenzo c wheels
Too much to list regrettable sale.

Also, I enquired about the engine modifications:

Engine rebuilt balance shafts out shaved crow cam double vavle springs flat top pistons balanced head work electronic ignition cars only done about 2000km since rebuilt

So would be an awesome pickup for someone if you got it for around $5-6k I would think

Thats what I have in the shed, not as nice............... yet.
As I have said before, I think, I am going 2.6, quad TB EFi NA. I want to make 220-250rwhp NA. I have a Jap spec 5spd, Disc brake LSD, Sports seats, Sigma struts and brakes from a donor siggy I picked up for $200, laughing.
I also have 4lt of Hot House green that I am gunna mix with 1lt of bright silver over a silver base coat to lighten it, I want it to look like a modern version of the metalic green the VH/Centura's were in the 70's.
I am shaving the door locks and handles, fuel filler (currently a 1/4 panel flap, gunna be a charger style between the tail lights), Totally removing the front gaurd indicators and Galant air vents on the 'C' pillars. Stretch the gaurds as far a possable (not a fan of flares)
All up should look very "smooth"
These are the wheels I want................... this week anyway, lol

JK, I do love these though, very fitting for a 70's Japper

P.S
Do we know if this is still for sale??
It is not the same as I wanna do mine, but as I am looking at 8k+ for body work, buying this for around 8 is a good start, and I should get $1500 for mine
The totally red interiour will have to go!!! but the way I am looking at it is, I need to do my interiour anyway, I need to buy and install my EFi set up anyway, this will probably save me money over doing mine

 

[2000VR-4]

I sent the guy a text asking if it was still for sale
He replied yes
I sent how much
He never answered
That was over a week ago :-(

 

[Hotwire]

Obviously not that worried about selling. Id say unless he gets his asking price he wont sell it - and you could see why if its had lots of work done to it, it wouldnt be worth losing more money just keep it and drive it into the ground.

 

[Tom]

a lot of those old school 2 door coupes have same sort of tail lights, they really loved that style haha..

that car looks wicked though!

 

[leekscurlock]

Does anyone know if this is still for sale, and if so does any one have a contact number?

 

[2000VR-4]

I sent the guy a text a little while back and it was still for sale and it was, when I enquired how much he didn't answer. It was advertised for 8k so I guess that is the price.
I will see if I can dig up the # for you.

 

[ygoslo]

So desperately needs better wheels. Like this:
