My AE86 and KE70

[JamesAE86]

2 years ago I went looking for a clean, unmodified, low milage Jap car to do this. A uk car came up and I couldn't say no to it - 80k miles, full toyota service history from day one, all mots, original receipt/warranty, unmodified and it was a very good price.
I bought new from Toyota - 2 rear quarter panels, drivers door, sunroof, boot, front bumper, rear bumper, fuel lid, outer wheelhouse panels, rear lights and centre section. second-hand front wings, Levin grill, Jap heater unit, Jap speedo/tach unit.
The car was taken apart and every bit of rust was removed and repaired properly. The shell was sprayed Toyota Super II white and rebuilt.













I have Volk Racing mesh wheels to go onto it, they're being refurbished at the moment. Jap side mirrors and rear boot lock unit to go on, unknown Jap front coilovers being reconditioned by Darren Mc and fitted with TRD shocks, Cusco top mounts and Techno Pro Spirits RCA's, rear TRD shocks with TRD springs, Jubiride traction brackets, Revolver adjustable panhard rod, Revolver cf front strut brace, Bride fixed bucket, ordering Techno Pro Spirits grooved disks, project mu lines and pads and getting the calipers reconditioned.

Nice clean work...liked the red/black a bit better though..

[Jan Pedersen]

You rebuilt it way to soon! Its VERY NICE, though

[delange]

nice job
how much did you pay for rear quarter panels, planning on changing them to :wink:

[Squeejy]

That looks very nice, I really like what you've done. Its fairly similar to what I would have done with mine If I'd had the money.

When I saw the registration it really bugged me because I knew it from somewhere but I couldn't remember where I'd seen it. So I just went through my JAE photos and found it. Infact the car was parked behind mine at the show that year. When you bought it was there still a grey door with diagonal stripes across it on the driver's side?
