    Default Rolands Original GTV Levin

    This is my 1985 GTV Kouki Levin. This is my 2nd out of three spinters owned. Previously owned adm with redtop conversion, and stocky 3ac Trueno.
    Ive restored this Levin as close to its original condition as possible, Zero rust and absolutly mint. absolutly love it. Has a few mods, 2way TRD LSD and some Freaking stiff ass TRD suspension and bracing and various other bits and pieces. I think its one of the only sprinters in perth with factory working aircon.
    I'm slowly replacing certain parts with brand new parts/mint condition, eg: brand new parcel shelf, brand new parker/indicator lights, mint twin cam steering wheel, brand new sun visors, mint factory air box, genuine GTV stickers etc.
    I have brand new bumper lights and kouki eyelids on the way and will be purchasing a new/mint kouki grill shortly.
    As you may notice I have an extremely rare factory set of mirrors with the toyota visors! Only set Ive ever seen or heard of, mind you that dont really do anything haha. Also a close up pic of my Potenza wheels.
    Yes im a bit anal about my car and if something it remotely scratched or scruffy I have a habit of replacing it with a better condition part. Costs me a bomb......

    Looks great. I like red panda, and I like GTV, and I love the steering wheel. Please don't modify it too much.

    but wheels need a clean haha mesh is horrible to keep brake-dust out of. at least with the Potenza you can get a cloth or sponge in between...
