So this post has been a long time coming, ive been lurking the forums for ages so i guess it's my turn!
I bought this EK from a chap in Wagga Wagga over a year ago, it was in amazing condition, virtually no rust, took it down to bare metal and repaired what few spots there were.
For most of the time ive had it ive just been getting the engine and mechanics of it together, going with..
202 straight six, 1 n' 3/4" Triple SU's, LJ XU1 Cam, Straight cut timing gears and High stall Torque converter (I think thats about it)
Just finished the paint, which is what these first photo's will show.. went with a gloss cream roof, and a deeeep dark purple in satin tone for the body, managed to get a shade that changes from virtually black to a purple depending on angle and lighting, which i reckon is a good feat for a straight Satin, wanted a blend between rat and show n' shine, figured i usually only see one or the other so i'd meet half way with a nice Kustom feel.
I've gotta get a few rubber/gasket kits still for the doors/windows, but they are the last puzzle pieces left, other than that all that's left is assembling it again.
Interior is MINT which im happy about, but not in the scheme i have in mind, so that will change eventually.
The end vision involves a few more bits and pieces, but so far it's dead on target for what i have in my minds eye.
Ok here ya go, apologies if any of it is a bit granulated, blame the IPhone (Blurred the background but thats it, no sneaky alterations)
