long story cut short,sold my sbc supra in middle of the summer/winter and fancied something a little more hotrod,so bought this minor,was built back in 1990 and has lasted very well...even though a few people have done some dodgy botching to say the least...i have had the car 6 months now (cheers for collecting scottie) the door gaps were horrendous and needed some attention,so have now fixed this,by getting the doors to line up i removed all the plasticspacers someone had made up to shim the doors,and now they fit lovely,to get a prefect fit i am going to light skim the edge of door and rear quarter so the gaps are nice,next was replacing the perspex windows all round,so fitted new rubber/clayton rite,and cut flat lam for the opening front dr quaretrs and rear quarter panel glass and its come up very nice,engine needs some serious tlc on the looks department and some serious detailing,re paint the chasis and cant decide want paint scheme to do her...ANY SUGGESTIONS OR PICS...then re carpet and headliner..phew...thats enough for now heres a few pics...also looking for some 5x112 pcd deep dish rims...
