yeh .. too late to opt for the orange.. shes now comes in black.

I offered him 200 bucks and a case of beer to stop it becoming a paddock basher... He moved before he got the beer!

Thanks guys, ive only just joined up so i could use some advice as to make the pics smaller..
I tried but the original size is still bordering?? if that makes sence...

yeh it runs well.
Reconditioned 18rc (long before it was mine)
Extractors, exhaust,shocks and suspension all round.. as old as motor, few bits and pieces inside.
More rust than you could poke a stick at and cracked windscreen when purchased.
Yeah they are neils wheels, found em at a wrecker. 14x7 on the front, 15x7 on the rear although they are not exactly the same as the fronts have a couple of studs and are a bit more offset.

Right I make you an offer you can't refuse.
Youve got $500 on the screen, Will give you $600.
Just kidding. Laughing
Shit the centre consoles worth 250 new. Good buy.
Black is back in a big way. Me, ta22 and you.

for shor!

yeah it looks pretty in photos but is still pretty rough, omegaman can contest to that....i had it in toyofest for fun.

just needs a respray and it'll look top notch.



Haven't gotten to the motor yet... plan to have a 1G-GTE in by year end. Gotta do front brakes / rear diff etc before that.

It's gotta go before it show i say.


Then its slowly work the 18rg to a turbo monster... similar spec to people100's, darn i wish i could afford that motor.

That's an awesome find! And so were the wheels! Methinks I'll stop looking for longchamp xR4's and try to find a set of Neale's wheels for my RA23. What's n the future for the beast? Will the 18RC make way for somehting more dramatic?

Re: Dukes $200 RA28 Fri, 28 October 2005 11:47 Go to previous messageGo to next message
heres a few shots pretty up to date.. the only thing that may be different now is it may be cleaner inside after getting some of that foamy interior cleaner and scrubbing the crap out of everything.. i was surprised how well it came up Smile
a few photos are of before i put new tires on..
i wanted to fill out the guards a bit because the old front tires were too thin.. 185/50/14s and the back was ok but still pretty empty looking.. 205/50/15s

anyway i got it sorted and put 195/60/14s on the front and 225/50/15s for the rear.. still not 100% satisfied but allot closer so will do for now.. Laughing

also got round to aligning the doors a little better and doing all those odd little jobs you put off for so long..

That's a fucking nice buy! The interior looks pretty top notch for it's age and the price Cool

She's worth a few more dollars now! Did you paint it yourself? Looks nice all buffed and polished.
