Trueno Sedan

NIce man! Great load of parts you have there.
Any scrubbing/rubbing issues yet with the lock?

[lo_rolla]

Yes. But should be able to be fixed with a hammer.
It`s lots of lock though.

[lo_rolla]

Alright, more parts came in the mail today.
Cusco castor rod brace. It's the last brace, rod or arm to be replaced under the car, minus the castor rods and I can't justify the price of aftermarket castor arms.
A Dash mat.
Brand new late model indicators, as the indicators I had don't fit on the URAS kit.
200mm 8kg springs, as I don't wanna run the 230mm ones right on the bottom. Want some adjustability.

So I suppose this means I owe dave some money, can't remember if I paid for this yet.

Once I get back from Europe and get me a job it's time to engine up this bad motherfucker.
Once I finish the rear quarter, that is.

Soooo, I wanted to have it done by now, but since becoming unemployed at the start of june it's made me alot more cautious with my spending sprees as I now have a finite amount of money til I start working in September.

As for August, I'm goin to Europe (Amsterdam for fun, Austria for fly fishing).

Peace out gentlemen.
And once again a big thanks to Dave, without him I'd still have a bare shell sitting out in the shed and a really really heavy wallet that would be hard to carry around. He's made it nice and light, but I wouldn't have it any other way. (It wasn't the parts that were expensive, it was the rib fillet and beer I had to feed him)
And cheers for all the well wishes and advice. I love you guys *cue: group hug*

choice........................

[blair]

this thing better not still be sitting where i saw it last man!

[lo_rolla]

Sitting where it is. I haven't worked for 5 months and I pissed all my money up the wall in Japan, London, Holland, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, Brisbane, Biloela, 1770 and Fraser Island.

On a bright note, starting new apprenticeship soon, gonna get a loan straight up annnnnd.... buy a fishing boat. Then I'll do the 86.

Nah, first week of work car will be heading off to the panel beaters, then fulcrum for full alignment then off to get tuned. In the mean time I'll use my previous employers work shop to build the motor.

Fuck, it's always an uphill battle every time I try to do something.


I'm gonna go live in a cave, grow a sweet beard, distill moonshine and live off berries and wallaby meat. Then I won't have to worry about this bad boy.

[lo_rolla]

You shoulda seen my beard last week... Awesome. I looked like a blonde mexican who needs to go on a diet.

[joeschmo_57]

is the car still alive? or did you burn it to keep yourself warm in the cave?

[lo_rolla]

Car is still alive. I however, am broke, I had money and I thought it would last forever. It doesn't.

Once I get a new job it's all systems blazing, as I've learnt a lot about money in the last year.

[86JAP]

ahh money the downfall of all great builds.. cant wait to see the ball rollin on this beast again..
