    Wink

    :greenbounce: aquired a stocko original auto 4k Kesev for 200 bucks, good condition aside from cracked dash, fucked seats and lots of rust spots,

    so far have fitted my 86 wheels and recaros and started stripping the paint back, there is no rush to paint this car so I have stripped it to a shell, paint strippered it and bought bog, primer, filler, sanding paper, stripper, a block, masking, brushes, etc... everything I could need

    for colour I have chosen to go with a Panda Yellow/black ( john deer yellow and gloss black ). as the paint is well and truly shagged.

    I have left original springs in there as I'm not interested in cut springs, will remove motor and trans tomoro and paint strip engine bay and paint in there also.... got a week to spend on her so going to take my time and make sure it comes out sweet

    pics up soon, cheers guys, Dave

    tomorow the fun starts fitting the 4ac and 5 speed, I'm only trying to get the 4k running cause I'm giving it to a mate and wanna make sure it runs well..... was there a good power gain when any of you guys went from 4k to 4ac in a kesev ?
