things that i need to do..

Ive got to cut the rust out of the bonnet or get a new onerolleyes.gif (no luck so far).

then see if i can fix the problem of the bonnet not laching over.

then see if i can find any other problems and go for a blue slip.

then put some clear on it.

then later GZE timebiggrin.gif

i got rego and was driving very nice,

and then the heater box decided to start leaking.

so got the *****s and tryed to fix it by disconnecting the 2 hoses for the heater and just ran 1 hose to seal it off..

Nice to see some 70's Corollas on here!

In fact there needs to be more vehicles of this age on this forum ;)
