New Crown

Postby ROBODISCO_20v » Sat Apr 14, 2007 8:36 pm

I'm looking at getting a MS122 Crown for a bit of a fun car.
Anyone got any good ideas for wheels & other cosmetic mods as I can't find much on line. I was thinking either some BBS style rims or maybe some 80s deep dish?

Slam on wide rims, cambered to hell, pretty much sorted. See Jebus' Cressy thread for inspiration.

I took it for a spin the other night, It's a sweet old cruiser. Hell I couldn't imagine it with a 460ci under the hood! The old 5M could do with a 1/2JZ in its place though.




I've changed my mind now, I'm after an earlier one. MS112/110 ('79-83)
