Legend of LongGrain. An AE86 success story. Part 1

T3 RCA and tow hook came in

I like this Corolla renaissance youre throwing down.

I'd give anything to build a car like this one day.

You must really enjoy pain and sorrow.

Haha. Just starting my own journey through pain and sorrow as we speak. Just on a car that ain't half as cool.

updates. Went to DW on tuesday for a while to see what was going on.

Showed up to find this.



fuckin gross, to the left of the carnage you can see where he carved lines to find out where the body filler actually stopped.

he also cut out the lower part of the rocker/door jamb and put the new one in, which looked awesome, as well as cut out the interior frame rail and replaced it with a not crunched one.

heres a picture with the lower part cut off.



needless to say, it took hours of slide hammering, sledge hammering, massaging, drilling, cutting etc. to pull the rail back out to being straight and how it was stock.

I also swapped my NCRCA out for standard RCA.

new front suspension setup.



cool angle.



my wheel fitment sucks big time now, but that will be fixed when I get an alignment. Just gotta stretch my LCA's out a bunch, they are in really far right now.

oh and I painted the wheels on the 14 and snapped a pic on the way home.



weee. Until next time.

saw that bondo job and fucked quarter in person today. that shit sucks. good luck with that. Im sure it will all turn out well when its done.

yea, a lot of people didn't believe me when I would tell them that this car is all fucked up.

i mean, besides that quarter panel the car is damn near spotless. But that quarter has more bondo than a car that just left pimp my ride...

Wow, that is an ugly quarter panel. Good seeing this car fixed properly.

thanks.

just bought these bitches.

Fuck yeahhh.

Man, send those qp pics to Arnie. Haha.

WOW!!!

Sold all my SSR's and picked up these instead.



pics with the tails on.





And front tow hook thingy.




got some cool stuff coming for the beams too soon. more updates then.

How's the QP coming along?

....

that was a joke. I picked those up because they were cheap.

idk how the car is coming along, i havent asked in a while, been buying a lot of parts instead to keep my mind off it.

Gonna be a long winter anyway.



According to the Mayans, this piece will never drift again!

they're probably right.

Hahahah.

Supras arent that bad as drift spares. Way cooler than steelies/S13 wheels.

I fucking HATE supra wheels. I think its that white horrilble ass corolla from around here that made me hate them. Man I fucking hate that car/kid.

they are just spares. I have 12 wheels now and i'm hoping to make that 16 soon.

so yea, I'm probably never going to use them for anything.

on a side note. Got some cool AN fittings for my fuel rail today.

got some throttle bodies.






that was too many pictures. but whatever.

Did not know you have 'Beams.' Those motors look pretty cool.

yea they are pretty handsome as far as engines are concerned.
