Pudsey Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Great news buddy! Can't wait to see you behind the wheel of one again. You will have to keep the windows open either side, as I imagine that's how big your 'grins' going to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buster Posted January 22, 2012 Author Share Posted January 22, 2012 Ok so we got it on the trailer in the end not the best of fun, But getting it off was a little better. Would like to say a big thanks to darren (wile) for doing all the driving for me much appreciated would have been stuck without it! have had a little tinker befor it got dark. The wing and front bumper are now off and remains of the light... had a look at the real damage and seems very light so thats a good sign will hop to have the wheel and hub off by the end of the week and make sure the steering rack is ok. heres some pic's as i no everyone likes pic's also thought i would show you how to make the most of ur old supra seats here is the bonnet after a little polish im thinking of fitting some aero bonnet catches to cover the hole will try and keep updating as and when Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy James Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Got it in bits already, nice one mate. Think the aero catch idea would work nicely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buster Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 also has anyone got a nearside clear indicators or both if they are selling the set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pudsey Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 (edited) Great to see you making such quick progress with the repair, and it looks very straight considering too. I have circled the picture you posted to show you what you will see. The two 'red' circles you will definately see as soon as the bonnet is opened, and the 'yellow' circle around the cross member will be seen if you look down between the slam panel to say check the water level etc. If you can pick up a radiator slam panel cheap, it might save the hassle of having to spray the piece you are talking about. Hope this helps buddy. Edited January 24, 2012 by Pudsey Pic added.... (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 Ideal thanks pudsey i think i might as well spray the whole lot as I have time. How you feeling buddy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pudsey Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Ideal thanks pudsey i think i might as well spray the whole lot as I have time. How you feeling buddy? It would definately be worth spraying for a nice tidy job that's for sure. Starting to feel much better thanks, still not 100% but much better than I was that's for sure. Your doing a great job there, and it will look great when its all back together loverly colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
