Re: Cris' Levin SR

Vaya vaya, hay que ver que si esta en buenos manos este ochoseis. Congrats for the find and congrats on this well executed rectification. Now, IF you by any chance could get hold of a 7AFE engine..... that would be the best. Same amount of ponies as the early "bluetop" 4AGE and decidedly ...

Re: Cris' Levin SR

Finally! After 3 months of waiting, got the original sidelights (used of course) directly from Malaysia to Bolivia. Also replaced the dome light, installed a short shifter and had the entire front suspension serviced, all the rubbers were dead, the car couldn't even be aligned! https://i.imgur.com/X...

Re: Cris' Levin SR

Re: Cris' Levin SR

Nice man! I like the gold and blue. The dash came out perfect! Is it hard to find these cars in South America? This guy is super cool and smart..

The previous owner had swapped the 4A-C engine for a newer 4A-FE, overall it is an improvement over the original engine.
