I was hooked on doing these kind of projects and i was looking for another candidate to restomod .. and i found it on Pakwheels a few days ago and grabbed it .....

So here it is ...

The Engine planned .... 1UZ-FE V8

I would kindly request everyone to share there views and suggestions regarding this project ....

And yeah this would be a complete restomod project meaning the car would be built from ground up ...

@Khanrocks,
Its a great project car. what are your chassis frame reinforcement plans and how much u paid to Ahsen Qureshi. This vehicle used to be in Sialkot city in 90's. Best of luck.

the interior is in very good condition considering the age of this beauty.
btw do give it rear disc breaks (if it doesnt already have em)

v8 (v8) 2011-06-07 09:44:18 +0500 #14

good luck for new project!
