That last photo is absolutely perfect.

John, thanks so much for giving up your time and taking these - risking life limb and a fine to do so!

I appreciate you've been up half the night going over them, but they look mint.

It's only going to get better from here!

awesome..... looks tops.

sorry i didn't get back to you this week Mik, works been hectic. Plus, this is giving me plenty of inspriation to stay home andwork on my mk1's

[mikinoz]

Thats cool. I'll probably take a large number of pics from the green car showing what's left so you can make a better decision on what you need. Save the long haul for nothing.

Wow John. You've killed it again. So is the amber tint in the trees a filter or was done in post?

It sure will. Subscribed!

Post. The green was ok too, but this helped the car pop.

Good to see you're a proper 2dr convert, Mik. Four doors just don't look the same!

Love the style you're running with - timeless! And good one for not choosing RM/RSs like the thousands of other Mk1s doing the rounds

Thanks Stu. I'm pretty lucky I've come out with this after the green one, just massively grateful that I have a blank canvas. Taking on some great advice from the mk1 wizards, I should emerge with what I consider to be my jewel mk1.

But every mk1 needs a set of staged 7"/7.5"x15" RS for true authenticity. I'm planning on rebuilding mine to those specs.

The next step, the engine bay, will be the hardest as I was to do an uncompromising job but as time poor it means I may need to outsource the prep of that before I can drop in the new engine.

I agree they look awesome, but it's nice to break from the norm. Maybe RSs as the second wheel option is the ideal scenario

Looking forward to seeing the car evolve. Next nationals will be a great day for Mk1s in Oz

Not bad for something the same colour as a Toyota Land Cruiser.

Looks really good man. Nice pic too, John.



RS' are much the same as 2 doors. Everyone wants a 2 door or a set of RS' (or both). At the end of the day it comes down to what you want to do, whether it be break from "the norm" or not. I like 2 doors and I like RS'. But i don't have either and don't have any plans for them in the near future.. However that's not anything to do about what's cool, what's cliche and what isn't. It's just personal preference.
