Re: The Bellet of the ball!

Work on this thing is slow, but that doesn't mean I aint progressing with it, haha. I have this set of Rays mesh wheels (from my old AE86) floating around, so I decided to see if they fit the Bellett. The wheels were staggered and the rear wheels were too wide to fit in the rear, but the front's ...

Re: The Bellet of the ball!

Thanks for the comments guys!

I've gotten a bit of work done on her in the downtime after working on the Mitsubishi (I work on the paint for the Mitsubishi 360 pretty much all day Saturday and Sunday, leaving only the weekdays after work to work on the Bellett).

First up, removed the washer tank ...

Thanks for the well wishes guys!
Nagoya did feel the quake but we had no damage or even any injuries at all! Didn't even knock the empty beer bottles off my desk. It's really weird actually because I look outside and there isn't any panic, it's sunny, everything is just as it was. If I hadn't been ...

At the moment I totally intend to keep it blue but am shooting for a darker blue. I'm thinking maybe a WRX or R34 Skyline Blue with a matte black hood ...

Re: The Bellet of the ball!

I think I'm already in love with this car, haha. I thought the suspension was identical to a C2 or C3 corvette at first (double wishbone front, leaf rear), but upon further inspection the rear is actually coil with shock absorbers, it just uses the lateral leaf spring as a sway bar!

The Bellet of the ball!

Hey all! I guess this makes my second post in the forums! Might as well get right on it! I recently acquired a 1973 PR95 Bellett 1800GT.

I had just moved to Nagoya and my buddy took me to a shop called Classic Car ...
