I'm glad you guys didn't look to hard and see the 4pot front calipers and the larger than standard disc rear end (hilux diff fitted), motor is in with linkplus , W57 box , alloy radiator and we gave it a quick 1 hour tune on the dyno and got 170kw at the wheels. Maybe the supercharger will be next. Cheers

Maybe we are crazy

Well the car has now been repainted and had some chrome bumbers fitted. Slight changes in the engine bay as well. Photos when the internet lets me. cheers

Looking very sharp as usual !!

There are better photos to follow.

 

[gloverman]

Now the photos work

yes it's nuts and gets some very funny looks. Might be at the power limit of standard logs. Churps the wheels in the first three gears now. Huge torque. Heaps of fun to drive. Cheers

Dam!! How much we talking for the supercharge conversion? Just the parts no tuning?

[Jake Breyck]

Peewee dont you think thats way too much money spent on an old and junky car?
