ok, maybe not poo brown but it still needs its golden foil and Willy Wonka style wrapping which is all yet to come!!

keep hunting for the right car, it will come along soon enough and you can be there to snap it up.

tetsujin has his old toyota scrap eyes peeled for you!

It's coming along nicely. That engine looks very at home in there too.

ae86 x member bolted straight on, no problems.
Same cant be said for the gear box mount! Ae86 one does not fit, knew this already (but have heard that you can use it if you just line it up with 2 or the 4 holes - does not) so bought a AE70 GB mount, again, that dont fit (but very near) so had to make a new hole in it with a big drill, nothing hard and all bolted up nice!

All the hard lifting parts are done, its now time for the wiring to get sorted (this is the part I am not liking!) .

Si - this is staying with me 4 eva xxxx

I cant take all the credit, without the help of my mates where I keep my car, i wouldnt have the know-how of what to do, and some of the peeps of variuos forums for there Corolla know-how and parts whorage!!

its all a learning curve at the moment but I have lernt alot in a short space of time, and thats what makes a build like this fun, I will be sad when its done .

as you are going boot mounted battery, get a battery box too, then use some of the carpet out the other brown one to cover it up, keep the stelth factory look.
