    whats next?
    The seats need a retrim. I love Devenish seats but hate the colour. I picked them up for an awesome price, and retrimming them in material akin to walky material wont be cheap, so I can live with it for now.

    Tailshaft needs one or two universals replaced. this will happen sooner than later.

    Replacement overflow bottle. one of the alloy cylinders that sit beside the radiator will do.

    Torana washer bottle in the wiper scuttle area, and a cover for the scuttle.

    Rear courtesy lights: there are empty holes in the berlina hood lining I put in, so I should fill them up.

    since my last post I’ve done the following

    Brakes
    VT master / vs booster upgrade complete
    VT calipers with slotted rotors fitted up front

    Seats
    VR clubby seats have been removed

    VS Devenish seats front and back have gone in.
    the back seat is the VS bottom half on a vl frame and some wedges cut out of the ends to make them fit.
    the back is a vl seat with a hole cut for the arm rest and extra foam cut from the vs back seat before the material was tied on.

    Suspension replaced with
    Front: Kings SL’s, 30mm sway bar, munroe gas shocks, all new superpro bushes
    Rear, Kings Lows, 20mm sway bar, superpro bushes, adjustable panhard rod.

    Wheels
    Filled the gutter rash and repainted them. looking heaps better with no rash.

    Wiring
    hid the engine loom and head light wires.
    bonnet cable, vacuum hose to the vac reservoir and ignition module are hidden behind the guards.

    VT master with VS booster conversion is almost complete.
    line adapters should arrive on Monday so I can complete the job.

    VP senator steering wheel is coming to replace the supercheap one.
    being a little bigger it should be easier to steer, and see the gauges and blinkers.

    VT calipers are on standby, all cleaned up and painted (silver and black)
    a few more parts are needed before these go on.
    hub adapters, pads, rotors and new brake lines are still needed for these.

    ta,

    not using square brackets was my problem.
    the forum tools were adding the “<” and “>” brackets
    my second thread worked out fine

    Thanks for the Tip Kal,
    odd, I was pulling them from the images in my SC thread, and they were appearing in the preview.
    I’ll have a crack at the second thread and pull the urls from photobucket again.

    you’re a champ!
    I have another thread to bring from stretco…. another forum :)
    I’ll leave that for a while after I create it to see if the images eventually appear.

    Hi Georgie,
    I tried Chrome, too but no luck,
    I’ve tried to post images using both the visual and text options to add an image.

    I’m attempting to add images here:
