Holiday






Holiday song by whom?.....Scorpions or Greenday....no matter who sang it, both were among under my best songlist....
few parts already sandblasted.....headlight trim, blablabla.......

got 2 ke70 fender for rm80 (rm50 + rm30)....and cut the arch....the arch fit nicely to the 510 body.....
and found 1 more abandoned 510 in seremban....few parts still can be used and i paid rm50 for the deposit before the owner throw it to the junkyard....

Only God Knows Why

there are 2 interesting things that this 510 has...and i'm other 510 too as well....

1. most of the parts uses in the car are metal made like the dashboard trim,dashboard top cover, B pillar cover, and U rubber cover....

2. most of the screws in the car uses philip type screw which made me work as hell to get 'em out. some of 'em left stucked and some of 'em broken into 2. uses on wiper panel, fenders, steeing column cover, dashboards, doors item, horns, headlamps bracket, safety belt and more to list....

this 2 things are strictly different from my starlet......anybody knows why?
