thai b10, (I think) fast restore

hrmmmmmm thank god i havnt had a smoke...
you would be wreckin my brain now...
It has come a long way since the start!
 
I can't say I'm a fan of the styling and colouring but you're happy with it and thats what matters yeah? Good one. What did the styling set you back?
the stereo guy done all the sond deadening & box work and door cards / parcell shelf and dash panel,
he was 1200 and the seats were 800 with head liner and carpet / dash pad,
 
its acually quite unfinished as we ran into the new year holiday time,
so alot of bits and peices to do,
 
im happy to finally get it to where it is,
we love it, we get heaps of attention, the thais lov it,
 
the stereo absolutely blasts, so were having heaps of fun with new year,
 
will be happy when it finshed and find some wheels also,
 
i did say i was going a bit different i did want add a bit of fun i guess...
 
beetwenty, yes i love that i know everthing is done / getting there, things like electrics are perfect, doors / locks / windows/ rubbers, the work your doing is impecable! mine iv had to settle for 85 - 90% quality workmanship, but year still happy..
cheers.
I understand the Thai Style its fun, happy, festive, Tuk Tuk like or even a little Elvis glamarous
just perfect for such awesome smiling culture that likes to make people feel uplifted.
Smoke you mean Rastafarian Inscence? I hope so!

When you have time put up some pics of the engine bay did you get the performance you wanted?,
The 1200 and 800 you mean Oz Opals right not Thai Chillies 

You might like this Steering wheel suits the red & white theme well & look at finish - very reasonable
Love these as well but probably much cheaper your way, a rage in Japan atm with some JDM cars.

Hows the steering these days from going rack and pinion must be awesome.

How is the security for cars over there much crime related to stereos or other things or is your town pretty laid back community friendly etc. Here you know what its like theres always a junky or spoilt bored schoolkid looking for change or anything they can nab.

yes to the opals, yes to the elvis glamor! yes to the incsence
 
bulliton just in now !!! my gf just walked in holding the number plates!! OMG she has never touched them before !!!
SHE SAID PAUL.. MAKE FRAME BEAUTIFUL !!! thje plate is sitting on my com table!!!
 
i just opened your ebay post and showed her the frame you posted!!! bizzare stuff, im glad theres no Rastafarian Inscence now.. no joke... bizzare.
 
your on the right track with the bling thing, some cars here look like space ship, lights bells and whistles!
 
love that wheel. will look great cheers.
ended up just new rings and bearings so standard rebuild,
head was shaved and ported,
made a mistake with carb old was broken so got new standard on ebay from bkk $258, as discussed recently the
1200 is a bit higher than 1000 so may be a hassle in regard to air filter, neal is sending me a standard one,
should have gone side draft back then...
 
if air filter fits under will just leave it for now, cash low just now lol,
new carb with new electric dizzy extractors, goes ok sounds pretty good.
 
 
also air con may be a problem for sidedraft.
the rack and pinion is great, drives like a gocart, does not quite return the same but very acceptable.
its laid back here, your right security here is not a problem.
there just no low lifes that go aroung stealing strangely enought.
Boosted brakes, Honda master cylinder , aircon
This things full of wierd and wonderful
 
Your air cleaner housing is on the way
I didn't check inside to see if it even had a filer in it
I hope you can get one local...I'm sure you can
thanks heaps neil, filter will be no problem at all,
just hope it fits under bonnet, as discussed here recent a12 sits higher.
That engine bay is 2012  all that one needs except air filter hahaha
but just in case in the future you can chop the bottom of a standard filter
put a corolla Ke50 or similar low height air filter and just use the top lid
and presto you have a roarter sounding effective filter that clears bonnet.
