Where are you located Bry?? No wrecker is going to have them.. not a 40 series I would suggest going to a decent brake shop near your house and see if you can get the re sleved

There are many variables. Depends on how neat it is, unfortunatley these old girls don't have the following of the early aussie cars. I would say anywhere from $500 to $6000 depending on condition

Its a great weekend to hang out with some like minded people and check out a massive amount of tuff Toyota's from all era's Check out this Toymods thread to gauge how and where people are coming Link to threadfrom.

The Time of year has come around again for the 35th Annual Toyota Nationals Easter Longer Weekend the 22-26th April 2011 For those that have been before expect a lot more of the same action spread over a full 5 days instead of 4, and for those that haven't been before you should be asking yourself why. Toyota Nationals Is held every year in Dubbo NSW, the location chosen years ago due its central location. Its an even 5hour drive from Syd, ACT and Newcastle, with those from Brisbane and Melbourne looking at around 10hrs. I even know of some guys from S.A making the trek.

I Voted 1 for nath

Tape measure is your friend. Measure how high from the guard to where you want the wheel to sit, thats how big your lowering blocks should be. Its a direct relationship, as for the front again armed with your tap measure start winding. I'm not up on Vic's rules but I'd say the lowest you could go is 100mm

got one 0401 624 192 located in ACT however I may be ble to get it to Syd for you

Toymods is the place to go the dedicated Crown thread has lots of info in it. What sort of V8 did you want the old Toyota 3,4 and 5V's are getting really old in the tooth, and really rare and not sure if it would bolt to the standard box. The Lexus 1UZFE as well as having the Hastle of EFI (ECU's and fuel systems) doesn't really fit without massive mods into a 50 series chassis however most other series of crowns it almost bolts into. So that leaves you with Ford or Holden 8's would be all custom mounts and bell housings, or box to suit engine with custom gear box mount. There has been a few over the years for sale with other marques 8's in them
