Taggy Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 After JAE i had heard that a few of you were talking about making a club starlet pickup style truck, chop top (if i read correctly). I thought it would be a good idea as a club owned vehicle for the shows and stuff.I know loads of people have got loads of stock starlet parts lieing around in their garages/sheds and i think you could easily make up a good project car from donations. I for one have got loads of stuff spare.I was toying of the idea of donating the EP82 shell to the club so you could start building it.What you think? Quote
miib14 Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 u mean something like this?not the best but had a go lol Quote
Russleh Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 but with a gt will be awesome. Russell Quote
Steve GT Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 haha would be funny as fuck if we did do it Quote
SiCaln Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 yea I'm also happy to donate parts/money/time Quote
Taggy Posted September 14, 2011 Author Posted September 14, 2011 I think you could repair mine easy enough if you had the time, but alot of the parts are being moved over to the ep70, in paricular the engine and coilovers. I am sure someone would have some standard suspension lieing around they could donate though It could be repaired easily enough through, just needs a front wing. Quote
rob_bower Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 I have a wing! Lol yea it's something we were bantering about! The only issue I've found would be the bed wouldn't be long enough for the marquee! Lol it would be cool though all uksc's up for shows etc! Quote
miib14 Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 but with a gt will be awesome. Russellil have a go at doing that tonight after work Quote
Starbuck Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 With a bit of work you could extend the bed. But more costly. Quote
rob_bower Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Yea as that would require extended brake lines and cables fuel pipes etc! Might be better off with a van. Just remove the seats and glove box! Lol! Or make a rack so the sit ove the roof! Quote
TrisK Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 we would have to fmic amongst other things.i see it as ending up something like thishttp://speedhunters.com/archive/2010/07/03...r33-pickup.aspx Quote
rob_bower Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 i had a quick go yesterday in paint! (note to self need PS again) Quote
dai_starletN/A Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 why don't you use like a safari rack to over come the short bed plus you can add spot light on the rack it will look sweet. Quote
TrisK Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 from looking at quite a few pick up conversions that ive seenskyline r33jag pick upwe will need some sort of aframe, which comes from the roof shut to the rear strut for rigidtiy Quote
dai_starletN/A Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 what more like this?yeah something like that to carry the marque and you still got room to carry the booze LOL Quote
hill_bill10 Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 personally i think u shud do it with a roll bar in the back with massive spot lights on top ;) kinda like a hilux or sumthing Quote
rob_bower Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 that is mega! god i need PS back in my life! i think we'd strugggle to get a toms kit for it though! lol Quote
Steve GT Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Find me an optional extra roof rack and il put it on my GT lol Quote
