Someone might care about this lol but I finally got myself a Mint KE70 that I can be proud of ^_^

It's a 1982 KE70 with 200,xxx on the body and a recond. 4K about 30,xxx ago.
Got it off a guy who inherited it from his Dad who died at 77 and was the second owner.
It's pretty damn clean, no cracks in the dash, still has the sheep skin seat covers :P minimal rust, only a 50c sized piece on the boot.

Unfortunately it's Auto but I just bought a 5spd 4AC package off Jordan (KE_Sev) so that will be going in soon hopefully...

And pictures speak louder than words:

peoples perception of mint is really wrong these days... i can see a fat chunk of rust on your boot... that and all that dirt and dead skin build up on your steering wheel is gross... other than that good luck with your build :P

its all the same colour, its shiny, and its 26yrs old: that makes it mint in my books:P

how bad is that rust hole? mine had a hole like that when i got it too...easy enough to fix

4ac is a great idea, heaps better than 4k!!

Sherlock
9th February 2008, 12:48 PM
Yeah well I mean on the whole I reckon it's pretty damn mint. Rust is an easy fix, it's not even a 'hole' its still just surface rust, the paints just cracked off.

And as for the steering wheel, I dunno about dead skin...ewww. Will be cleaning this arvo! :lol:

looks good dude! It'll be alot more fun to drive when it's manual. Just out of curiousty, what kind of lens was used to take those pics?

Sherlock
11th February 2008, 12:04 AM
That's what I'm hoping for! Going 4AC manual in a few weeks :2thumbs:

Well it's a Fish-eye lense I've got. I'm into my photography so if anyone in SA wants to get some half decent pics of their cars hit me up!
I'm always keen to take some photos ;)

11th February 2008, 12:07 AM
lol, I figured it was a fisheye lens :P I was wondering about the specs of the lens :D Photography is fun, it's good to see you enjoy it aswell :)

keep us updated!

Sherlock
11th February 2008, 12:14 AM
Oh my bad, thought you were just wondering the actual kind of lense.

I was just running a screw on fish-eye on my 28-80, also my camera is a DSLR D30 EOS as well. Would LOVE to buy a proper one, but the car keeps me poor, one passion at a time :lol:

lol kidding, they're all spoken for.

I'll be giving my 4AC a freshen up, gaskets, rings and bearings, flush it out, service it, mount it, drive it. All in by the end of March...maybe? :lol:
I've pretty much got everything I now need to complete the conversion Except a T50 X-Member so if anyone has one? :)

What's left of THE dodgiest car I have ever touched. eg only using 2 bolts to hold the tail shaft in and using a KE X-Member to mount the T50:blink:

It's a 2-piece, anyone know what kind of tail shaft it is?
