Hi all,
This may come as a huge shock to everyone, but I have sold my Supralux.
NOW, I want to start planning my next Hilux. I think it has to be double cab again, but this time around I will not be buying the neatest one I can find at a premium. I will rather buy one that has no engine, and the interior can be in any condition. I will then respray, re-engine and re-interior everything new. The key is to buy as cheap as possible to start off with, and to not fit too strong an engine.
I will keep you posted.
New Hilux for Ewald

Re: New Hilux for Ewald
Ewald,
That's the Spirit!! You will find you get more fun out of doing it this way, and what's more the "new" Hilux will eventually end up being very personalised when you have finished with it :)
I look forward to reading of your progress with this project.
I admit I am also a "poor romantic fool" in this regard, and PROUD of it!

Ewald, koop Civil Servant se Lux, doen al die mods... en dan verkoop jy hom weer terug aan hom vir nie meer as die helfte van wat jy op hom spandeer het nie!

Re: New Hilux for Ewald
Nog 'n bietjie te volledig Bennie. Ek soek basies een wat se enjin moeg is, en reg is vir 'n respray teen 'n spot goedkoop prys. Help nie ek koop 'n runner en mors dan weer geld deur goed wat werk uit te smyt nie.

Re: New Hilux for Ewald
Die probleem is net dat as jy 'n nuwe enjin en verf ophet, lyk hy dan nie soos 'n SFA nie.
