C110/240K coupe over fenders

[JMT240KGTR]

Mine won't be going on for a while yet.

I'm driving it daily at the moment, the plan is to get another car $$$, have the K off the road and start a complete from scatch project.

Now back to reality....

I called him like 3 times last week, and he kept telling me its ready...

till now no reply from him.

I'm not in a rush anyway :classic: will just keep it for future use.

Right now I'm thinking of getting another car

not a datsun but... old skool celica (T22 or RA23) or RX4

Know what you mean.. mine is my daily transport also, so it's very hard to work on. Weekend projects only!!

That's why none of my stuff has gone on yet. Well that's my excuse. The real reason is I don't want to see the bill I'm going to have to pay the bodywork guy!!!

Never thought of using my 240K as a daily driver

1st not really fuel friendly compare to a smaller car

I'm also thinking of unregistering the car for the time being its just that its a hassle if the car is unregistered when you wanna do some work outside like interior retrimming, body and etc.

Keep it registered!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trust me, when it comes time to re-registering the vehicle and passing it through the relevant safety checks ie Road Worthy the hassles can be huge.

Some testers will fuss over the most irrelevant things regarding the vehicles safety and just aren't worth the hassles.

Play it safe, have the car checked over by yourself or mechanic and upgrade items on a needs only basis eg suspension items, brakes, tyres etc.

I re-registered what my father and I believed was a pretty sound car a few years back, but ran into a mechanic who picked up on the radiator (why was an auto radiator used for manual car??), window rubbers, and cracked dash (even covered by dash mat!).

Went to another guy and he just handed over the RWC no problems.

Get an RA28

I used to have one, and my brothers got one. they look great.

There's one over here that has a lexus V8 in it.

Thanks for the advice James, though re-registering the car is not a problem as I know this mechanic, they're like my friend I even get free service from them!

When i took the 240K before to get RWC they wanna buy the car and giving me very good offer but obviously I refused.

Regarding R28 thats the model they call "Mini Mustang" as the shape of the rear half of the car is similar to mustang fastback, also the tail lights.

we've got the 240K that has a similar shape to that anyway so I'm leaning towards the smaller versions of celica.
