A60 Daihatsu Charmant

[DarkSupra]

Sooo i bought a '86 Daihatsu Charmant A60 shell.
its in really good condition and luckily most of the important parts are there.
I already have a complete AE86 drivetrain and suspension laying around (Meant for my KE70 but thats a bigger project).










In its former glory, hopefully i can get it back to this!

Cool. There can't be too many left now, so its good to see one getting put back to working order.

[DarkSupra]

There aren't a lot but somehow lately i see more pop up that I haven't seen in the Netherlands before.

Did it previously belong to Ricer Shiina?
I remember him owning three Charmants but he removed many of his videos, so I can't say for sure.

[DarkSupra]

Nope its a different belgium Charmant

[banpei]

At least now you are quite positive no pot has been smoked in it.

[DarkSupra]

Hahaha

Finally took some time to install some of the front suspension.
Also received a set of Hayashi Commands this week so i had to test fit them

I can't wait to see the car finished, looks like it'll be a good one when its all done.

Looks like proper fitment to me!

Fitment is pretty good on the front but that's mostly because i have NRCA's for now and removed all the camber in the topmounts
They're only 14x6.5 +9.
Probably going to buy another set that aren't in good condition so i can widen them to 8".

Well, fitting the front suspension motivated me to install the rear axle today


Really hope i can find a lot of the small parts that are missing asap, really can't wait to drive this!
