Should be but not, the one i have in the car is a jap spec, and i have 77 ke30 one, which is an aussie spec, even says 'made in Sydney'. As does the 55 item.
the wiringdosen't match up, you'd turn the wipers on and parking lights!
And the hazard switch is all different too, which is a shame, cause thats what i bought em for!
-
I just thought I'd add, that I read somewhere that by the time the 55 came out, car makers had to make an Australian content quota, so that means you'll find a number of Aussie made components on a 55 that won't be on a 30, and therefore won't fit a 30 and vice versa.
E.G i bought a blinker stalk assembly from a 55, and it do'nt fit my 30.

Yeah saw it too! Wasn't sure it was a corona till i saw the front. Did anyone see that it was a column shift auto, even rarer! :jamie:

My 76 ke 30, has an all white interior, seats and trim, off white/grey A and C pollar trims, and black carpet.
My bro's 79 ke55 is all brown, cloth seat and black A/C trims. Exposed sill.
BTW when did they start doing the door trim to the top, i.e non exposed sill?????? :jamie:

I'm all for giving peoples chances, but after 500 leasons!
I think some just aren't meant to drive. But also i think alot of it comes down to ATTITUDE.
Look at not only the drivers, but who's been teaching them, halve of em just think its a joke.

So sorry i couldn't be there, I wanted to go, but I had to work, and we were cut off the net, so i couldn't send my apologies :wub:

Jap parts haven't changed hands, and they still have STACKS of KE3x and KE5x parts out there, I was out there a few weeks ago.
Its just when I was there (Jap Parts) about 3 weeks ago, the guy was going on about how Ceaser, the bloke who used to run, hadn't done this and that.
They only had two 30s and 55 there, and they were beyond wreacking. Because i can remember going there, and being able to walk thru tons of cars, and pick off what i wanted.
By the way, has anyone been to Flynns wreckers in Cooma latly? Last time i went he didn't want to sell anything, turned away good busniss from 5 people, because there was a netball game he wanted to go to! :kiwi:

Nothing urgent at the mo, but i needed a window a few weeks back, but got one :)
I was just saying there doesn't seem to be any great wreckers out there.
But i'll keep that in mind thanks for the number.
Although i do need a pair of A pillar trims for the car.
Mine are all cracked and broken
But i'm not in a rush...

Hi all just thought i'd post up a piccy of the old girl, on a trip over easter. we went down to a little town called delegate, southern NSW, so i thought why take it to Vic, just so i could say it's been there :)
500ks and she didn't miss a beat! ;)

My girlfriends focus is betty, betty blue. And when she goes in for a service, she goes to the

just thought i'd pose a question to all, in the ole ACT :D
What ever happened to the wrecking business?
I went out to Jap parts in queanbo, and since its changed hands, its all new stuff. Not as good as it used to be.
There was a place out at parkwood, near the old belco tip, but i've heard the bloke doesn't like to get ride of stuff.
Just wondering if anyone knows any really good wreckers in and around canberra.....

You guys are talking bout the phase 4, of which 4 were built.
The record price was for a phase 3 which 300 were built, and about 120 are left!
But still a huge price, for a piece of australian motoring history! :D
