1979 Toyota Corolla Dx 20v 4AGE with VEMS (Dori spec)
« on: January 28, 2007, 11:46:32 pm »
Hi,

I would like to introduce my pride and joy. It is an old school 4 door Toyota Corolla Dx with a very low mileage (30k miles on the clock) and minimal rust.

I have some ae86 running gears + 20v blacktop to run VEMS with it, Rob has been really helpful in convincing me to give VEMS a go after some successful example.

It is currently being put through for a roll cage being done (by some drag car building nutters), Simon86 will be helping and guide me building my drift spec Dx... thanks him for sourcing me such an urber mint pimp car to start with. 8)


Pictures:
Chrome bumper has been taken out to store in my bedroom while it is being built ;D








Apology for the quality of camera phone pictures


more update will be posted soon.

I keep looking at the first and last photo.

Looking very cool - You must have put some hours in so far.

All the best for getting it fired up - If it goes as well as it looks youll be onto a winner.

Keep us posted agriv8
