Well the car is in the Body Shop now ...

its being stripped and dented and hopefully would be painted in 2 weeks time. Delay was because of Eid holidays ...

Now we have got clean kabali body parts ..

Car hood
Fenders
4 doors
Grill
Back trunk

We were very luck getting our hands on this stuff, one shop in Peshawar had every thing and he has also promised a complete interior aswell ...( i have my fingers crossed )

Since we have all this now the body work is much easier and now we can have the finish what i am looking for ....

I will post the pics later .. very slow net speed here

Yasir bhai do get a roll cage made... Safety first...

khanrocks (khanrocks) 2010-09-22 05:17:14 +0500 #243

@ hassanazeem ... Buddy i know.. but infact if we place a roll cage in the car then the driver and the passengers have to wear helmet all the time, cuz if not a roll cage can do much harm also .. So we have compromised on that .....

hassanazeem (hassanazeem) 2010-09-22 05:45:25 +0500 #244

May i suggest a half roll cage which basically is a U shaped pipe that runs alond the door pillars and roof in the center... will be safe for the heads of the passengers and will provide some level of safety also...

Lala,

There is nothing common about your car therefore I wouldnt worry too much about red being common. I am willing to bet there wont be one like your car in a long time. Period correct paint is where its at.

Good Luck

Nice blue shade. But there was original cressida shade very close to this as i remember we had one in 1981 in Abu Dhabi.

Update :

Body work Done ....

fixed the Inter-cooler inside the body so that its more safe also now we can achieve the look which i really want the and we can lower the car without letting the inter-cooler hit the ground ...

Before

After

with the front fixed
