yea, me and my dad did all the work, we're very patient i think but almost 1 year of that was respraying it, because i was in the middle of my VCE and didnt have much time to work on it, so it was only i nthe late months of the first year we actually buckled down and got it sanded, which was hard as hell, the old guy who orrigionally had it, thought hed be a mc.fucking genious and try and respray it using exterior house paint as the undercoat......applying it with a brush and roller.....took us nearly 3 months and over 50lts of paint thinners to get it off....NEVER again..... if i ever get another car like that im just gonna set fire to it......
we've restored now 2 toyotas, this one, which is mine, and my grandfathers 1972 hilux ute, im sorry but i cant induldge you with any model's, cus i dont know, all i know its got i think a celica 18r in it, from like a 9r, really old :S but that goes great and thats my grandfathers, and hes had it since brand new when he bought it he thinks for $4999 back in 1972 (but he hasnt got a good memory so i couldnt tell you what the actual price was )
so yea, bit of work ahead, ill just bang out a list now of stuff i need, if anyone has anything for sale:
ECU + looms for 4age
pics of decent rims that would fit a ke36, that anyones interested in selling
T50 gearbox (theres 2 types viper niplex was telling me, one with 20 and one with 22 teeth i think he said,on the output shaft, anyone know which ill need? )
clutch master cylinder (hydraulic)
extractors to suit 4age
as for the engine, my dad has secured me a japan import 4age 50,000km on the clock and fully rebuilt, twin cam, injectors, only missing the ECU (and gearbox ) for $850, i THINK thats a good deal :S lol.....
thx guys, OH and as for 3 years of hard work it was actually 2 years, the car was registered and first driven legally on the 22 of may 2004. so 2 and a bit years of work 
catch guys
