project update : damn u rust !!

After few weeks searching for the right paint shop, well u know i dont wanna kena tiao bout the price, finally found one shop at Malim area, Malacca. NLN paint shop was the choice as they kinda have a good facilities and workers. Hopefully it is a right choice. A week after the car had been left at the paint shop, they found few rust spot where it need to be welded with new metal sheet. The holes could just be repaired by using fiber and cement but it wont probably last long. So i take out the car and back to the body welding shop again.










Theres a bit of rust here and there at the floor area both front and rear. Cant afford to repair the whole of it so just weld some spot at feet area. Also weld a new mounting and bracket for the new bucket seat that just arrived=).... Probably will have the paint shop to apply new tar and anti rust layer on the floor area later.




Remember that i once told that about all the stuff that i "hentam n sagat" on the left side of the car because of there's no side mirror on that side. Yeah still can't find any OEM/ toyota side mirror for this car. The only replacement is that CF F1 style side mirror which could cost me around rm250-300 or get a whole door panel for KE70 GL version. So heres, some cheap ideas for the new side mirror. Kinda an experiment..hehehe..guess what side mirror is that=)
