I havent been getting to wild with this thing yet as I may just import a more workable one, but we will see. We managed to get the engine to turn over with a jumper box, and the fuel pump started pumping out some naaaaaasty varnish lol. We didnt have spark, which is probably the condensor or coil. I'll probably try to get the engine running first.

I'm really on the wall with the care at this point, and have room on a container to bring back a newer model.

There are soo many small things that are unique to the a30 though. have a feeling the car is gonna look like swiss cheese if I get it media blasted.

looks pretty soild in the pics is that the orignal paint?

city hunter · **Posted:** Thu Aug 18, 2011 1:33 am

no it isnt, and its far from solid lol. They only came in 2 colors back when this was made, black or white, this was originally black.I've yet to see 1 a30 part on yja since I got this. I will probably buy some later g52 carbs and use them on this. I need to finish all my other projects before I even bother messing with this thing.y first goal will be to get it running, and then from there I will decide what to do.

is that debonair goin at it with a road pacer?

jwebb2876 · **Posted:** Mon Dec 12, 2011 6:24 pm

Debonair would probably stomp a Roadpacer. A Kingswood isn't that quick with a 308, so imagine how slow it'd be with an atmo rotary with a quarter of the torque :lol:

I just read through this entire thread. Really nice and rare find!! :tu:

Did you find window seals that will fit???

As far as wheel choice, I would say keep the stocks, polish up the hubcaps and drop it just a little bit on thick white walls. :wink:
