Well, I'm about to go strip down the left side quarter panel today and reveal more nasty butcher bodywork that was done. Its a pain in the arse when you have to constantly fix the previous owners dodgy work, I can't stand it.

Oh well, thats cars for ya! I will get some pics posted when I'm finished. CAtcha, Adam.

Okat guys I'm back from the garage after a pain in the arse of another job. I realised that the GTR has had a little tap in the arse and it needs a little bit of work with aligning perfectly with the boot. Whoever bogged this car did a good job, but whats their deal?... I mean couldn't they use a frickin MIG!

Some photos of this afternoon:

Yeah dont think I will do the entire body work, cos I can get it done and painted for $2000.00 professionally, that way I can point the blame on some one else, hehe! But we'll see. 3 weeks will be pushing it though. Catcha, Adam.

Okay guys, I haven't worked on the car since Tuesday, but have some photos of my mates Fastback Celica that we are putting a 308 V8 in. It looks pretty choice. Still got a long way to go but the trimatic and engine is all bolted up by making custom crossmembers (using torana engine mounts!). Catcha, Adam.

Agreed, but all the other dimensions seem suprisingly large...

Maybe mount the radiator on the front of the radiator panel instead of the back of it

Hey guys, surprisingly the clarance for the radiator is 15cm from the engine. In the pic it doesn't have the locator for the radiator. We're trying to see if we can get a lc/lj radiator in. Catcha, Adam. :rockon:
