Hi Guys,

Well I owned this cute lil Mitsuoka K2 micro car for sometime in Malaysia. This car was shipped back to Malaysia from Japan and it had been taken care till now and it runs great!
Now im working on some fresh look for the car as the old paint start to give up. now the car still in restoring paint progress!

Any comments are welcome!

Thanks Bob!

Any idea what to make it more interesting? currently i removed the rims and planning to chrome it and the windscreen had a minor crack which supposed to be replace however god knows where to find the windscreen lols so the plan would be using acrylic sheets, cut it into shape and heat it up then lay on the old windscreen to get the correct shape. that would be just a wild idea, I also found a lot of honda small bikes (or moped as you called em) adjustable springs with absorber for front and rear would fit them snugly, wonder should i replace them or just leave it as it is first.

If the coil over shocks are ok best leave them unless they are obviously shot. ie, no fluid in them. Replacing them with other units can be hit and miss.

Great advise! yup i think I should leave it aside first.
Let me get the car done and I will share the photos

Very interesting vehicle. Can that be registered as a car in Malaysia?

I'm in Singapore FYI.

It can be registered but there is too much work to register so I just rather keep it and use it for event only.
May plan to sell it to the right person if interested because I dont have much time to play around with that car anymore secondly I have no where to keep the car at the moment which had to keep in my shop. Last time this car really brought me a lot of joy and great moments.
