Hey all
bought my first Ke70 not long ago. Its a wagon it doesnt have much power but the 4K-C still goes hard! It is not in the best of shape but that was reflected in the price i paid for it but it still only had 204k kms.
it was missing a few things like drivers window, some trim and the tailgate lock was broken. Anyway here are a few pics of it when i got it:

soon after getting it I went to u-pull-it to get some parts to fix it up. I also got a pair of cheap rims to put on the front and upgraded all the locks to Volvo locks :P (harder to break into compared with corolla locks). also made got a better gear knob and made a custom drift button ..:D

yeah still haven't started sanding it yet, maybe i will finish it this weekend

it ran out of rego yesterday as i didn't renew it so i could do some work on it. So i don't think i'll be able to come down in it until i fix a few things up. maybe thinking of 4ageing in this time
