#1 new daily ute build
ZigZag Posted on: 2010/8/28 8:52
yes that is correct... i have found another ute to fix up as a daily driver while i work on the SR ute... will post pics and more details later... i won it on ebay while i was out bush and my poor mrs had to organise getting it back to our house while i was gone... she is the best.

ok new ute seems to be another 1980 model, now i own a white and a black one.
this old gal is pretty rough with terrible paint, interior and has rust but it all seems fixable.

plans for this old girl is to treat the rust, repair or replace panels and give them a fresh coat of paint so it looks shiny and smooth again, bolt on some flares, swap the pissy 120y struts and disks for something a little larger, tidy the interior (may even make it all brown again), tidy the engine bay, reset rear leafs and super lows in the front and find some sweet dished JDM style rims.

there is a build thread on here on my black sr1200, i have swapped most the steering/suspension stuff for the good oversized adjustable maddat gear, maddat crossmember with dummy SR20 sitting in engine bay, R31 skyline coilovers and brakes, few other bits and pieces. whats left to do is fit drop tank and sort out fuel pumps, surge tank and fuel lines, custom tailshaft, mount gearbox and crossmember, mount brake booster, weld in new trans tunnel, upgrade diff, have brake lines hooked up and an auto electrician wire it up. bloody heaps to go but its all fun and games, lots of lil things to do to tidy it up and also a turbo set up waiting lol.
