little red wagon

[benzo]

Well I decided to sell my beige sedan and most of my parts and just buy a better car to skid, most likely nissan. Meanwhile I was looking for a cheap daily

Ended up buying this wagon very cheap off "TOM" on Rollaclub, great guy to deal with

Plans are to get it low in some decent handling suspension, 'mild but flush with stock guards' 14s, and just daily it pretty much

Specs
1984 KE70 Corolla S station wagon

Engine: Stock 4K, small exhaust which sounds ok

Gearbox: K50 5-speed, Xtreme heavy-duty clutch

Brakes: stock

Suspension: Standard KE70 junk, front shocks are rooted, front lowered a little bit thanks to saggy springs, 2" lowering blocks, Boge Turbo rear shocks

Wheels/tyres:
front - 14x7 +3 polished MA61 rims (5mm spacers), 185/60 Nankang
rear - 14x7 +3 polished MA61 rims (5mm spacers), 185/60 random

Exterior: 'non shine' red paint (I might polish it), straightness, rust, chrome guardtrims, towbar

Interior: light blue, collapsed driver bucket seat-ish, fluffy dice, factory icy cold A/C, crap Philips tape player with stock speakers and really bad 4" in rear, tacho dash, 360mm Nardi Classic on 65mm HKB boss, AJPS handbrake button

Now some pics, brace yourself







Got a few little things to fix but nothing major (rhs wheel-bearing, inlet leak (either manifold or carby), and a timing belt)

Hopefully have some updated pics up soon

Cheers, Ben.

I took the tacho dash out of the sedan and put it in the wagon today along with my Nardi.

Whats up with wagon/panelvan rear guards. 14x7 +3 is nearly about 15mm from flush

new pics are up there

Gave it a little stick down a few side streets today and it goes pretty hard for a stock (possibly original 350,000km) 4K.

commercials are so much more fun haha

Cheers, Ben.
