This bumper is alright, but drivers side isnt screwed on o.o never got around to fixing that :P but i think its all good... No rust that i know of in the car... is neat, just needs a proper clean... and a paint job, heh... few little dings in body though... but easily fixable... reckon ya could get them out with one of those magnetic thingys...

it has been alot of fun, from buying the car completely standard off ebay for $1000 to getting it like this... the ONLY time i havent enjoyed myself is when i couldnt get the efi to work and had to get it sent off to a workshop :(

i suppose ive been lucky in that alot of my mates are fabricators/boilermakers/fitters/welders.. so i am very keen to exploit the cheap labour :)
my cooler pipes only cost me $104 in materials which is good.. labour was free :)

well, after putting of working in the rain for ages i decided to just layer up and get over it, at least now the siggy is back on the road with a jap 5 speed and exedy clutch.. curiously i used the b/w yoke as the "jap 5 speed" one i had was too small, ill have to try it in my spare narrowblock gearbox now and see what the go is
