March, eh?

It's a wait and see for me.

Also, rung the panel beaters, my car doesn't fit on their machine or something like that, so they had to order in a special attachment. They're stripping the car at the moment and then rolling it straight today. They don't have a door for it yet, but they're hunting for one.

Hope thats not a reason for extra cost?

Keep it in Cosmo and try different style box?

The car is the cheap part of the equation, I have enough funds myself to get it into an RX-8 and we can do most of the conversion here at work.

The box is the killer. It really needs to be a dogbox (E85 and 20psi will push it well over 700rwhp I reckon) and TTI look like the go, but as Corey will tell you I'll have to scrap together at LEAST $8k to get one.

The only way I see that happening is work pays for it, we put work sign writing on the car and then I slowly pay off what they want me to pay off.

That would be awesome.

That's the cheapest box to handle it?

      Rusty roof repair

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.

      I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent.

      Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.

      Rusty roof repair

      By PranK · Posted

      So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
