    Default Nanna's ra40.

    Just brought this minta for my first car, its a 1980 ra40 powered by the sporty 18rc and racing 3 speed auto.... sporting a burnt valve.
    It's rust free, apparently done 80,000 original km's... but I think its been around at least once. Plans are to get a RWC and get it transferred into my name, then 18rg/w50 when I can afford it.

    Modifications so far are:
    -Tint
    -Jelly bean mags, 14x6
    -Waxed/polished and a decent vacuum
    -Silliest looking 'monza' steering wheel (soon to be my dogs toy)

    Mods to come:
    -18RG built to standards specs
    -Convert to manual
    -Lowered springs, around 2 inch
    -Nardi
    -TTE rear boot lip/spoiler
    -14x7 enkei mesh
    -Mild sound system

    I only have pics from before my mate brought it, ill take some freshies tomorrow.

    40's are so much better in coupe as opposed to hatch.

    looks fairly mint, good buy!
