    Default Macca's KE70 bush basher

    82 ke70
    life story:
    it cost me 2 cartons of beer and was sitting in a padoc for a year, it was previously used as a bush basher but they obviosuly didnt give it a reall hard time, it still had a radator full of fluid and sump full of oil.

    got it going for a while but the fule pump was rooted and the tank was full of rust anyway, so we found a mitsubishi magna with a in tank pump and straped the tank in the boot and hooked up the lines.

    then the next drama, the roof was wobbling like shit, so we put some strapping over top which didnt help. so in the end we just screwed the roof to the roll cage. the roof supports iscracked in places and still makes a *** loud rattling noise when driving so one day i might have to swap the running gear into a ke30 wagon shell that i have.

    current stuff:
    home made roll cage
    4 point harnesses (cost twice as much as the car)
    coustom fule tank/pump setup
    home made sump gard
    no glass, door linings, carpet, back seat, boot lid, parcil rack (rusted off), back lights
    coustom paint job

    mabey in the future:
    welded diff
    cut falcon springs all round
    hold the roof down stuff
