Browner's New Build... "Project Goldfinger" :)


Recommended Posts

Well guys as most of you know I have sold my pride and joy, the 383bhp Glanza I loved so much, to a member on here and the car is now in the UK.

Depression soon set in so I had to buy a project to keep me occupied...

This one is a little different to the norm... I welcome you all to "Project Goldfinger" :)

It's a '98 Glanza shell that has just been professionally resprayed Top Secret Gold.

It is a full nut and bolt restoration and has to be built from the ground up.

EXTERIOR:

It has a full Livesports kit including:

-Livesports Spoiler

-Livesports Sideskirts

-Livesports Rear Splitter

-Livesports Front Splitter

-JAM Reverse Scoop

-Genuine Cruise Vented Wings (bought new from RHD Japan)

-Genuine Toyota Midspoiler

-New Reflet rear lights are fitted to the rear

The pics aren't great but you get the jist... :)
