No way. The white one is still original and sitting under covers in the back of my garage. I need to sand back back a couple of doors and respray them to clean up old bad repairs, where people haven't prepared the paint surface before painting over dirty paint. The paint is flaking off. It won't be too hard or time consuming to fix.

The green project one started as someone elses "unfinished project", that I bought for $500 for a bare shell.

Mate! This is bad news. I think we all need to just get our projects done, the longer we take, the more chance for bad things to happen.


Good Luck with a fast repair.

Chris..

Gooday crew. Just getting back on my feet again. I have managed to tear the door off the ute. Coming down off the trailer and the ratchet on the winch let go. Turned the drivers door inside out. I was climbing in the car to roll it down when it let rip.
The top hinge is broken, and the bottom is bent beyond repair. The door is bloody ordinary and the guard took minimal damage. Does anyone have a drivers door and hinges? 'As it comes' with accessories, but I want it straight.
I also need a 1200 clutch cable if anyone has one about.
Just reading the speedo cable post. I have a Bluebird cable lined up to the rb20 box. Where can I get those cogs to change what the speedo reads?
And one last thing, I have heard I can change the ball joints on the bottom of Stanza struts to change the camber. I am hanging out of the guards at the moment. I need to come in about 5~10mm. I canned the old stanza struts with the tarago discs and hj65 calipers. I have custom struts with stanza bottoms, lowered 1200 springs and celica dampers. Seems a Toyota was good for something.

Cheers fellas,
its good to be back under the datto
