Rings, Roofs and Christmas | Juicebox Unboxed #34

The Trueno gets the new roof fixed in place and Barry works his magic on the tedious bits of surrounding metal.

This is a little Christmas day treat. Happy Holidays to everyone who has been along for the ride so far. Hope its a good one.

Back to actual AE86 progress, the snow has melted and Barry returns to replace the rusty roof on the Trueno. We also tear down the 20 valve bottom end and rebuild the rear brakes. This one is pretty interesting.

The Trueno gets some work done until we are horribly distracted by a freak snowstorm called the “beast from the east”. Knowing how rare this weather is we quickly take advantage of some cheap cars and plenty of beer.

The Chase: Aidans s14

Aidan is the sort of guy that just always lands on his feet. He somehow has a knack for finding exactly what he is looking for in the most unassuming of places. The story of this S14 is no different.

How to: Waste time with an AE86 | Juicebox – Unboxed #10

We take an extended amount of time on the AE86 trying to remove its bumper. The AE86 bumper bracket design wasn’t Toyotas smartest moment and causes a few hours of pain. We also build a workbench for the Truenos permanent home.

Dream Chaser: Advan C33 Laurel

This weekend Reuben gets to live out a dream. A couple of months ago he toyed with the idea of turning his already superb C33 into a fully fledged drift machine to drive at Gatebil. He bought this C33 on a whim last year, a car he was curious about that came up for cheap, this was right before Americans could get their hands these which tripled the prices overnight.
