    Default Boxheads ae71

    So I thought I might aswell throw this up seeming iv been snooping around here long enough haha

    When I first got her home



    Needing to swap the head and replace thermostat housing turned into a manual conversion which turned into flaring guards which turned into deciding to do a full repsray which still hasn't happened but it's getting there slowly





    Currently putting the 4ac back together and sourcing a few things for the manual swap to be finished(just gotta pay for gearbox mount and pick up spigot bush from bursins)

    Have xt130 struts going in Christmas day(thanks dad)

    So my list so far of things I have aquired that is on the car

    Ajps panhard rod
    Ajps lock spacer
    Ajps drift button
    1 of the 2 monza buckets I grabbed from reed
    Fixed 99% of the rust(still have 1 rear guard to go)

    Stuff I haven't put on car yet

    Kyb agx's adjustible inserts(going inside xt130 struts that I pick up tomorow )
    45mm rca's
    A pair if 15x8 -0 steelies(will be getting hydro dipped at some stage after I get another pair)

    Another monza bucket (when I can be bothered either modding my rails or acquire ke70 rails)

    And well yeah this is my shitbox
