i've got a s2a lwb ragtop landy that i need to give the brakes attention on... need to fix them and it'll be an ideal unit for headin to the river with the dogs.. thirsty tho.. oh, and the idle too... and the front drivers guard needs some straightening after an outing... :roll:

then theres my nissan skyline gtr.. 1996 r33.. love that thing.. rb26dett.. damn it goes goodly, but that is a project in itself too.. gettin a new motor put in it at the mo.. takin a while.. but a great motor for good price, couple of tickle ups on it... zoom zoom.....
:fart:

then theres good 'ole rusty'.. thats an ongoing project... keepin it goin.. might take it into h2o's tomorrow and take roof off it and cut rear guard wells so theres room for the 36's to artic rather than rub... :oops:

that and replace a heater valve that shat itself last time i took her out..

and i also have my daily driver... 'goldmember'... its a mazda 626 thing with single overhead cam and 1.5 inch exhaust and factory 'handle like a sponge' suspension.. was the mrs' car but got it given to me when she got her new car.. its all class!!! :wink:

it needs a cv and wof and probably countless other repairs..

well, goin by the 'rules', those are the only projects i have that have engines..

oh, my brother has a charger being fully rebuilt from the ground up with a 440ci engine and in orange r/t paint scheme.. phatt!

my old man is buildin a 351 ford ltd thing.. big roller... gangster..

im 99% sure it is. maybe j top as the b pillars are still there so on the drivers side it kinda has a j shape to it? meh... i just like topless crusies in summer. pain in the arse to clean the inside tho.

my pajero is an onging $$$ drain, but i also have a series 2 rx7... 13b turbo and gearbox sitting beside it. one day that will go but for now i need my paj legal... :roll:

oh.. i also have a worked e15et nissan motor and bits to make a n12 pulsar/langley turbo... just need the car to put it all in for now, that was mainly aimed at being a club car. got to many tickets in my last one.. :lol:

Ooooooooh, that gives me a funny feeling in my trousers! :twisted:

Goooose mate you have to take me out for a drive in that thing some time, I wanted a Falcon coupe since I first saw one not long after we arrived in NZ. We don't see anything of them back in Britain other than in Mad Max. I'm so jealous I think I may just go and sit in a small room and weep pitifully.
