mhub91 Posted October 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Dressing up the KA a little bit! Went with hammered black (can't really see the texture in the pics), anodized purple sick speed oil cap, and brushed metal finish. I thought I did a great job on this. Did it all myself. ...obviously wasnt hard, but I worked hard on the small details! Also did the SOHC water inlet with SOHC alternator bracket to eliminate the power steering pump. you can see in the 4th pic down. Quote Link to comment

I had also made a run to the local pick and pull and found a badge from a 1980's VW Quantum GL-5 wagon thats says "FUEL INJECTED" ... definitely putting this on the a10 too! Stoked!

edekalil Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 Good luck, looks like you hav a good start on things. I'll have to give that paint a try on some head lights. Quote Link to comment
mhub91 Posted November 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 Thanks. And yes, I've seen a lot of yellow high beams that have been painted. The Tamiya TS paint is very best bang for your buck. Or you can spend $20 something each on yellow lights Quote Link to comment
robopineapple Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Nilla, how much were you going to do those "magic boxes" for? Also, where did you get your driveline done? Quote Link to comment
robopineapple Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Aaand the trans mount! Quote Link to comment
mhub91 Posted August 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 I can make a box for you for the cost of parts, $20 labor and a six pack of beer..... About $60 total give or take a little. The trans cross member was built by me, I can also make you one for cost of parts and a little labor. No more than $75 or so? Driveline was shortened at Drivelines NW. Cost me $186, but may cost more if your U-joints are bad. Quote Link to comment
