Howdy yo.
Im gonna be doing the write up on craigs Mish-mash of two KE70's and an AE71 which he call his 'daily driver' cause craig is a lazy mo-fo.
Anyway, the story. This is craigs old AE71.
it looks shit now, but once upon a time (last week, in fact) it looked shmick and was sliding til it's heart was content. but nooooooo....
DEFECT! And you can see why.... 6.5cm too low at the back. 2.5 at the front.
As the AE71 had some pretty extreme rust in the rear quarters, it would have never made it through regency. So the hunt was on for a new shell. An ex-loan car KE70, complete with blown 4K (not the good type of blown, the blown as in 'has 15 pounds of compression in cylinders 2 and 3 sort of blown) and 3speed auto and AE71 front quarters, lights and grille was picked up for a very tidy sum indeed.
The car is in the final stages of a running gear transplant. the motor is going back in tommorrow, after changing over the pedal box, installing the clutch master and stuff. But anyway. some Parts lists.
