    the gold(brandy) one will be my new daily when its done.
    the green ones going to have some body work done first of all then probably an EFI 2.6ltr from a TF rodeo and a 5 speed. im thinking diff conversion, maybe VLT or hilux diff. im kinda keen to have a go a twin charging(supercharger and a turbocharger) so i might have a crack at it with the green one.

    getting moar parts this weekend i think need to get into the rust on the gold one, unfortunatly i can only work daylight hours as i have no lights in the shed at the moment. so thats sort of hindering progress at the moment as i work all day.

    next couple of weeks im going to be busy most weekends as were moving workshops but after that im building the auto for the gemini at the shop.

    currently got the front brakes apart because well they were just sitting there.

    ok so ive got some spare front brakes so i pulled them apart.


    and i found bad bad things




    so its time for a rebuild ive got caliper rebuild kits ready to go

    ive also got some wheel bearing kits on their way, might as well do them while theyre out.

    had these lying around

    so i might as well use them

    i painted the calipers flat gold.
