#15 Celica update

It has been a while since my last update. So last week i prepared my car for a body works.

While waiting for the tow truck to arrive. I marked the spots that needed welding work.


And it needs a lot of welding works

So off to Klang. why Klang?

As ya'll dont know. I sent my previous KE30 to the best body shop in town. But the plan was discontinued as i had to get rid of it due to the purchase of my previous BMW E30 Obermaier.

So this time, for the second time. Im sending my Celly to the same shop, Ah Hai of Klang.

Estimated around 3 weeks to complete and a lot of dough to spend till it finish

I brought along the stuffs to be install on the car. I also got a brand new side panel with 1.0mm thickness.

And my side lamp for adjustment on the fender

Front panel

front bumper

And window winder

So after a week. 50% of the work had been done, this shows how fast these people do their job. Unlike previous body shop who contradicted his own words.

So the door is already done. A marvelous job on the inside.

The fender works. Its finally connected to the side panel.

And the side panel is already in

The roof has been reworks as the previous job was rubbish

Rear fender needs to be cut and welded in order to mount the car as low as possible.

And the engine bay is almost done. I deleted all the hole inside the engine bay

I hope it will finish next week

Some shots of the car inside the shop.


Believe it or not. This Mini Moke is a customer car and in waiting list to restore.

Do things patiently, gain more satisfaction.


cheers
