Down under newbie

Tobywan · 08-23-2007, 01:28 AM

Hi all, my name is Toby and I'm from Brisbane Australia.

I own an 1984 AW11, Dark Olive and Silver in colour which I have had for nearly a year and I'm very happy with it.

So far I have fitted a cold air intake, twin outlet exchaust a new steering wheel and a push button starter.
I am currently working on a fiberglass gauge cluster to house 3 gauges and an addition to the concol.
As finances are tight I intend to do all my mods myself and my biggest yet is to redo the head as I warped it when my thermostat froze shut.
I was charged $1200 to have it done but managed to do it myself for just over $300.
I don't usually write much in these forums I generally just read about whats going on.
