brammy777 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Its been rebuilt twice, and has looked completely different every time.The first version of it is featured in a book i have.It was lighter in colour and had single headlamps, and looked like a 50s american custom, think 'Grease Lightening'Its been around for aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagggges now, looks bloody nice.Wonder what happened to Saunders six wheeled CX..........

Guest Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 While I respect Mr Saunders, I think that Amazon is fucking awful.Amazons don't have the width to carry off this 'Kustom' bollocks that everyone thinks they can. They're not a bloody '53 Mercury and I wish people would realise that.They don't have a V8, so they don't sound right.Also, a lot of how a modded car looks and appears to me is actually down to the surrounding environment. You might be able to wing that in Long Beach, but in a car park in Putney when it's pissing down? Fuck off.Perhaps it's just because I was born after this hot rod craze died down, but I really don't get it. I didn't get maxxing either, and I think most originality purists are boring shits.I'll go and get me 99 Flake and top it off with some MISERY, grrrrrrrr.

garethj Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GINETTA-G26_W0QQitemZ330365448089This one's pretty gruesome in white. Even though it's all the fashion now because of ipods it still reminds me of when Bonnie Tyler drove an all-white Golf cabrio in 1988 It's even got one of those popup sunroofs. Just what a homebuilt car needs is another hole in the roof Interior looks smartly done by component car standards and I still like them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, i did change the plugs, and even went on to changing the points, condensor, rotor arm and cap. Now, it did run and drive lovley before i decided to do these things, as i drove it home when i bought it, but it seems not to want to start now, it seems to fire up but not start, i checked to see if petrol was comming out of what i think is the fuel pipe but non come out when i sucked it and the new plugs i put in are still dry. Well you certainly can't call this guy a quitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retrogeezer Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Those 1.4 Sport Fiesta are pretty rare now but man, did they rust badly. My mother in law had an 87 E plate one in the early 90's when I was still in the motor trade and it needed new rear arches before it was 5/6 years old. Really badly rotten too, not just a few scabs.

Mr Lobster Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Always liked these Preludes. Now that R11 is sold and I will have a space on the drive, a Prelude would make a nice replacement I guess.

TheScrapman Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 I can't remember seening a Corolla this shape before, Quite a tidy thing though.It's a KE20, must be quite a rare shape. Street Machine built one in the late 90's and fitted it with an engine from an AE86 when AE86's were £100 scrappers! It also got the AE86 struts and mk1 Celica LSD. All bolted straight in. It was a utter hoot to drive. I owned it for a few years. I believe it went to Ireland... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
