    Default My First Hachi

    Well ive been meaning to put up my build for a long time now and now i finally have got some spare time to put it up.

    I bought my 86 back in 2008 from Blair Athol. It sat on my lawn taking in as much of my lovely green lawn as it could for about 9 months or so before i had even thought about working on it.

    It's a 1983 ADM Toyota Sprinter

    -Awesome 4AC
    -Came with copy vertex sides and rear bar (Came off and sold)
    -TRD green shocks (8 way adjustable) in the rear
    -Stock springs
    -Whiteline panhard rod
    -deep dish no name steering wheel
    -Bucket seat no name

    Thats about it really that came with it apart from an extremely sh*t paint job i have no clue what the guy painted it with.

    Also came with a large amount or rust in the hatch and other various places. The hatch is really the only thing i have to replace other stuff is easily fixable.

    So back in January i started prepping the whole car for a new paint job. So here goes with the pics.

    This is when i first bought the car...






    Traditional Takumi shot ^^ lol

    My first mod putting in a stereo haha

    Just some cheap sony's




    all done turned out quite nice

    After that easy job was done came the prep for paint and a little guard work for when i get my awesome wheels

    more pics of that up later
