Old skool projects, whats out there?

[Big_Dave]

510's owned by IA'ers, Lex, BabyJ, Btlfed, Whtdc2, F8d2blk, Postscript, rt132kp61, Any one else on here have a 510? I have 2 510 wagons but they are a long ways from being in the road, I'm taking the body and putting it onto an early toyota truck frame and then bodydropping the floorpan, baggin' it, the full minitruck treatment. It should be cool. But first the bosozoku 1974 corona mark II. I'm gonna start a thread about, Old skool projects, whats out there?
Post some photos of any old skool projects started on or not.
Here is our Zero project 1977 Celica GT. We've just lowered it, put some Old Skool JDM Enkei shoes on it, a front lip off of a 510, weber carb, and a mid range cam in the 20R mill. We have big plans for the GT. Install a volvo b230ft engine on megasquirt, Install a body kit and paint the body to look like Eleanor from gone in 60 seconds, Not really sure about the "Go baby go" button. But, this is our initial plan. It's a part time daily driver right now.

[87 Turbo II]

Kinda, I'm not restoring, but rather trying to make it more fun to track. It's already had some engine work (see sig) but I want to get full racingbeat suspension and some wider wheels and rubber.

[Big_Dave]

Cool, !st gen 7's have been coming out of the wood work this year. Hard to find wheels for that early mazda pattern. Are you gonna do a GSL SE rear LSD and front spindle conversion or just try to find wheels? Fun cars!

[Big_Dave]

C'mon, I kow of five 510 projects right now!!! Someone's gotta have a corolla that they are thinking about fixing, (a'hem Puregroove), A Datsun roadster (Hint..hint Alirae did you get your brakes fixed on your PROJECT)

lol... --didn't know you were waiting on me.







There's a fender on there. I don't have any recent pics. Goin' by Dave's shop this week. woohoo!

[Revmaynard]

Technically I'm welcome to restore this, it's my dad's but he has no plans for it. It needs floor pans so I kind of lost interest after replacing the trunk lid and some stuff. It's a 1969 BMW 1600 with a 2002 2.0l.

^ how big are 2002's? what size car would u compare it to? smaller than a 3 series? inside wise, like leg room..

[Revmaynard]

Probably close to a 3, it is a two door so the rear wouldn't have much, but I can say the front has PLENTY of leg room. The 1600 is lighter than the 2002 as well.

[Big_Dave]

That bimmer need to be fixed! cool rare car! Floor pan aren't that tough if you have a welder and a nice compressor.

Just messin with you Eddie, Thanks for postin up!

They are pretty close to the size of a Datsun 510.

[JITB]

Hmmm...VW Bug?....uh...nearly the same wheelbase as a first gen miata

I'm going to try and get the L.E wheels from the 83 limited. they're 14 by 6 instead of 13 by 5. I'm maxing these out on 185s, the others will fit 215s safely and that's enough grip for a 2300 pound car, considering my old TII was 700 pounds heavier and gripped like crazy on 225s.

[Revmaynard]

I have more pictures I can post to help with an idea.
