Hey mate,
Your KE30 seems pretty sweet for what you paid for it. Nice colour too. I have a KE55 which I just bought a month ago, which I am just beginning to restore. (and just bought a KE30 wreck today for its 3K engine and 4-speed box..the engine was rebuilt about 10 years ago, and hasnt even done 1000km since then!) So I am looking at either modifying the 3K, or porting the 3K head and putting it on the 4K thats in my KE55.
Keep me posted on how you go with your corolla, and check out my other corolla (a KE38 wagon) on http://public.fotki.com/manifold
Till then, have a good one.

Hey champ..
I am currently taking some photos of my KE55 at the moment, and when I get the KE30 home, I will take a few shots of that too... the body is as sad as all hell, I honestly think there is more rust on that than anything I have EVER seen..not a single panel could be salvaged. But the interior and mechanicals are schmick and thats all I need for the moment.
I am looking at replacing the KE55 dash face with the older KE30 because I dont particularly like the silver plastic on the KE55, and I think the black vinyl face of the KE30 looks sweet.
Keep me posted.
