update on my non datto collection

[Shonuff]

most of you guys know me as the guy that shows up to your meets in some random half finished yota and talks shit.

 

the rest wonder why i even post here. :fu:

 

 

not really sure why i post here, cept i like the smell.

 

 

 

but somewhere buried in this forum is a introductory thread with whatever yota's i had at the time. since my forum of choice is having major issues at the moment i feel the need for post.

 

 

so here goes.

 

formula is:

 

original pic

random build pics

current status pic

stats of rig

 

 

 

 

 

1st off my baby a 1979 celica ST (base model) coupe, here is where it sat for 5 years needing a starter. $75 and a starter i had kicking around and i drove it home

 

tried swapping to a supra front clip and was never happy with the grill

 

then i imported some gawd-awful-F'n expensive bumpers from a austrailian junkyard

 

and decided to go back to a stock front clip, the supra hood caught way too much air at high speeds and the front would lift @ around 90mph

 

also included:

weber 45 DCOE w/2in exhaust and a stock quiet muffler, almost perfect interior, 15in supra rims, and a soon to be installed 7.5 diff with disks.

 

 

 

 

 

next up is the other side of the celica coin. the lifted celica. 1978 celica GT hatch. got it for free and have ALWAYS driven it like it was stolen.

 

started out mostly perfect...mostly

 

then after a spirited dyke session (dirt kind, not female kind) both front strut pillow mounts were destroyed.

 

]2edeye got a lil drunk and made some 4in lift hard mounts for em, i went yarding and found some late 80's ford areostar springs for the rear. some big 29in tires mounted on some 15in z wheels completed the package

 

i decided to swap the supra front clip over to the lifted celica, it rarely sees speeds high enuff to worry about lift. will here in the next couple of weeks add 4 more headlights, and a bull bar.

 

also included:

weber 32/36

newer cast tri-y style manifold with a single glass pack welded to the collector, 3in invisible pipe all the way to the back.

for more details please take the video tour

 

 

 

now my wheeler

80 4x4, been rolled twice and stolen once.

 

i figure i dont need to post much about it as its been covered on another recent thread in general discussion in a shit ton of detail.

 

but here is couple pics n video for those interested

 

currently under major reconstructive surgery

 

 

 

 

 

next up is my soon to be crown jewel. a 1974 corona wagon. paid $50 for it.

 

a traditional rattle can 2tone paint job, some supra parts, a supercharger and a lil bit of lowering later

 

the motor in question

 

re-installing fuel lines this week:D

 

 

 

last but not least is my 1975 hilux, paid $150. sat for 5-7years swapped from points to electronic ignition and have put 15k on it worry free.

 

ive gone through a couple different kinds of wheels, keystone kustoms, stock dog dish, and now finnally some 97 mustang 17's

 

then i promptly slammed it

 

plan to swap beds and make the lower body line on the bed look more "correct". how it is now is stock, or supposed to be that way. but i find it goofy and want to "fix" it.

 

 

 

not pictured cuz they will be sold soon:

78 hilux- parting out

78 celica- selling cheap

85 AE86 SR5- selling, but not cheap. :fu:

[Edz280zx]

done in a month. :fu:

 

[]2eDeYe]

I got an old garage door you can throw in front of your place. :fu:

[Shonuff]

ive been slowly metamorphizing the look of the lifted celica, to a much more respectable mad max/rally car.

 

now i think i have the headlights handled.

 

turned a full set of corona headlight bezels into some extra lights, gonna wire em all up to run as hi and low beams, with switches so i can turn on and off each pair.

 

 

 

 

 

 

i also snapped this pic, cuz i dont think i have a high res pic prooving just how hard i drive it.

[shane_lxi]

Fuck I want that crown. Trade a '78 cressida with partial air ride? lol.

[Shonuff]

tho i think i found a crown in a back yard. gonna find out next friday :D

 

 

then ill gladly sell the corona

[]2eDeYe]

Where's the naked truck pic's? :fu:

[Shonuff]

always figured you to be a upskirt fetish.

 

 

[Shonuff]

update on the hilux:cool:

 

 

first i attacked it with a flap disc and a sander, found WAY more mud on the truck then i thought.

 

but i kinda had my first rat rod for a minute there

 

then i got pulled over for not having a bumper of all things :rolleyes:

 

 

so i slapped my bed on

 

then while abusing ]2edeye's cool neighborhood i swapped from a 4:38 to a 4:10 and put some canned makeup on.

 

swapped the fender i could and mudded up the bad one (long story)slapped the trim on and polished anything i could rub out.

 

went to the pstoc car show and got "best street truck-old" my first trophy:cool:

 

the interior is next, mostly for sale at the moment but not cheap:fu:

 

need funds for longfields, and they are really not cheap.

[sly-yota]

longfields are too cheap! $500 if you meet bobby at events :fu::lol:

 

currently im installing chromolly birf eliminators with brass ring CTM joints i got 2.5 sets for $150 :cool:

[CharlieBucket]

hilex is looking good! so what is your rattle can technique? trim paint? satin? i always ask when i see a decent rattle can job. so when i finally do it, i can get a good result. so you never got the crown?

[Shonuff]

ya the crown turned into a mazda 1600 (i think) wagon that is 3/4 part of the ground, grass on the floor boards n stuff.

 

 

i used krylon satin black. i did it out side and that was my F up. the wind kicked up so it was hard to lay a even coat. if you can do it inside and i like to lightly dust, then hit it again a lil harder, then one more time for the full coverage. ends up with a fairly thick coat. prep with a green 3m sponge and wait a couple days then wash the overspray off with a soft towel.

 

 

 

soon as i have money i might have to track him down at a event, didnt know you could get em cheaper then driving out to his shop. :cool:

[]2eDeYe]

Thanks for watchin my dawgs. Picking up the 4runner Sat ;)

4runner???? do tell!

[dayton100]

always figured you to be a upskirt fetish.

 

 

 

looks great!!

 

did you have to do anything special to run those wheels?

i have a 3rd gen thinkin of upgrading shoes for it. not sure what yet.

[hang_510]

i have a 3rd gen thinkin of upgrading ...

 

what is it w/4runners and 510's? :cool:

 

i got my sedan from a 3rd gen 4runner owner, that i met offroading in my 3rd gen :D

[Shonuff]

if your talking a 84ish body style or talking a 82-83 sub gen your still wrong :fu:

 

mines really a 3rd gen :D

 

 

but either way, the older you go the less room you have for wheels. so anything that fits mine will fit yours with room to spare. the only thing i had to do to run these wheels was to get ford style large acorn lug nuts in a yota thread.

 

 

and i have no idea what it is with 4rnr's n 510's ive had neither :lol:
