Well that’s a bloody long day. One of those where you do heaps but doesn’t seem like there is much to show for it at the end. Started off by removing the pins from the passenger door. Thought I had nailed it. Then stupidly using the puller broke the end off the hinge. Luckily Cooper had one but it meant a repair. In case its useful to anyon…[Read more]

Working from home yesterday so had a bit of a play in the morning while it was coolish. Decided to have a crack at fixing the chassis rail. First job was straightening it where it was bent. Improvised with a puller I have, and after several goes at it, it actually came up a treat. Then when I looked at the rust, and realised actually I cou…[Read more]

Imo $150 is a no brainer. Worth a try!

Looks sweet, I am happy with my PWR, which was a burger with the lot, but it was $1500 which is a lot of coin. Zero issues with it so far. Keep up the good work mate looking great.

Don’t stress mate just hadn’t got around to cleaning it up, but all done
Thanks, very pleased to find it, I am going for something completely different but will be nice to preserve it for someone later one day.
Had a bit of a play last night and got the old window frame removed, now I have been doing it for a while, kind of know the…[Read more]

More of a deconstruction day, than construction, but I think its progress. Concentrating on the front now. So decided to change the temp bracing I had so I could get at the floor. Then set about carefully cutting it all back so I could gain access the the ends of the chassis from above but also getting it back to good metal. Has come up wel…[Read more]

Fiddly bloody things aren’t they, seem to take ages to achieve a small step forward. Rocketing along now though mate, its going to be a weapon.

I thought that’s what I wrote?, ie the 200 (Teflon) being easier than the rubber. But I am getting old!!

Tbh its so long since I did any hose work on mine I don’t remember that. I can’t believee that pic mate, seriosuly I couldn’t believe how easy the 200 series was to fit after working with the rubber. Aeroflow seems to have a bad name, althought that wasnt my experience.

In fact, I reckon I still have a bit that’s been cut that’s just in the box hardly splayed if you know what I mean. That must be a total pita.

Jesus wept, that’s bullshit. Mine did nothing like that, not even close. Maybe that needs to be sent back?
