Random Snap, getting there...

After work today I put the front back together.We buffed up the bumper lenses and they now fit in well with the rest of the new lamp! I just love the combination of late and early parts on Levin's...

the bonnet still needs some adjusting.....

Instead of re-using the old philps head self tappers to hold on the early splitter I picked up 

a set of  black Anodized bike faring bolts/washers ,I reckon there a nice touch to the bumper, 

anywayz..... loads MoAr got done , I'll get some pic's up Saturday!

My Levin resto UPDATE

Well its taking a couple of weeks longer than I expected,
but we're getting there with my Levin.
A few pics of the car in fresh paint....

At the moment the mirrors and boot lid still have to be sprayed , after that the whole car will get buffed up before I fit all the new lamps and satin black bumpers  

** Getting ready for Paint!!!

few progress pic's of body prep........

passenger wing and door nearly done

there was 4 spots of rust where the boot seal goes down , 
I posted two pic's of before we cut out the rusty metal and here is them two repaired with new metal and being sanded down..

but there is still two more spots on the other side that we just cut out tonight...

the rest is being sanded down....

while sanding I found a small spot on the back panel and a nasty little bit behind where the ecu would be, but all in not too bad for a 25 y/o shell!!?
so them two bits will be sorted now as well.

wheel rims back next weekend

My Levin : take two....

Due to some misfortunes, lets say,that I've had with my Levin.
I've decided to take the time now to carry out a load of work Ive been putting off.
All going to plan , in the next 3-4 weeks I should have my Levin transformed into an all round much better Hachi Roku !!!!!

With the never-ending Trueno project on hold due to funds solely being directed at the Levin , The plans for it Include :

- Full respray in Pepper White (undergoing at the moment)
- Full manual steering conversion , rack ,column etc
- Full heater system conversion from a/c box setup to manual with reconditioned matrix
- Rx7 four pot brake conversion
- SSR mesh rebuild

The above plus nct and tax should see me Really enjoying my car this summer , I Hope I can get this done very soon.I'll start with some pic's from work today where I stripped down the old SSR's

The four Rim's have been sent to be professionally polished, and I'm being supplied with fresh polished bolts, 80 in all, to build theses back up together after the centers are blasted and painted.

Pic's of the shell which I striped down last Saturday up tomorrow.
