Aoa. Dr sab after complete engine rebuild and all what is your realistic guess for the fuel avg with ac within khi city and on highway?
P.S it will be very kind of you if you can quote a rough figure of the restorations cost including everything minus the price of the vehicle itself.

Although the odometer is not accurate. I tried to adjust for that on the motorway drive. Its summer so I have only used it with AC so far, so don't know without AC. My best estimation is 8 km/l in the city and 9 km/l on the highway.

I don't mind sharing the costs. I prepared an excel sheet for it and will paste its screenshot.

Please note that this does not include engine cost. Engine is from a friend (who has a workshop) and we are still discussing..... jo Marzi day jain, jo aap ki Marzi....etc

Painter costs include painter and Denter. Please also note that this is not the exact list of each and every thing rather a list of how and when I made payments over the course of the project.

Very nice - what about a 1 HD-T (24 Valve) in this - adding an intercooler would be a good investment

[samiedogar]

Thanks. Frankly, I would have loved to but in my case, Frankly, I was getting 1 KZ at a bargain so did not think much

How is the 4x4 doing - do share some recent pics

Alhamdullilah. I've been using it as my daily driven for 4 months now. Initially, I had concerns about the side mirrors due to significant blind spots, and the rearview mirror didn't provide a wide enough view of the entire rear window. I've been searching for improved side mirrors to address these issues. In the meantime, I've added smaller side mirrors that have effectively resolved the blind spot problem for now. I've also installed a wider-angle rearview mirror

There are some available without this blackish plastic, "frameless" one might say, looks good as well. Like this:

Thanks a lot. Will order these.

I wanted to provide an update. The chrome had developed rust marks, affecting the overall appearance. I got it cleaned and coated with lacquer
