Crispy - i'm doing my conversion at my mates place on the Gold Coast... will be driving it back down to newcastle after i'm done, so if you want to check it out as i pass Evans Head, let me know

 

KE30_KE35_KE55 - i'll check out the chassis rails as soon as i'm back on the job next week... Unless i find an immaculate body, i'll probably just rust-cut and dent-remove this shell, then get it prepared and painted. probably not in the near future, cos i'm spending my $$$ on the drivetrain first

 

edit: Pictures will be up later this week

Yeah would be really keen to see it. I'll send a PM with my number and we can work something out when your coming through.

 

Cheers Jacob Crisp ("crispy'" is a life long nickname so i stick with it)

KE ping it real - very keen for sydney cruises :y: keep me in the loop... when's your project going to be complete?

 

Crispy - PM sent

are you the fellow that came over and got one of my thermo fans?

 

looks good, your running a sc14 hey? that t50 wont last long

yeah Roo, i bought your thermo fan..

 

T50 could possibly be a weak link, but i'll cross that bridge when i get there... might have to get a spare just in case :y:

Here is A picture of where I have found the chassis rails rust the worse,

I hope to have it driveable by april but there is a lot of work to be done between now and then

That should be about the same time as the next cruise i think

yea i would have a spare waiting, mine is already giving up from the sc12, second is now very hard to get in only done about 1000kms on this box too but i have been giving it a couple of kicks

KE30-35-55... thanks - i'll check it out on mine

 

KE Ping It Real... i need to be on that cruise

 

Roo... i'll get a spare, and depending on how it goes, i might have to start looking into other gearbox options (W series maybe???)

Checked out this Build in progress today. looks menacing. going to be a powerful weapon when it's

running.

 

also thanks again for the parts Mark, there all back home and looking at being installed soon.

good to meet you Jacob

 

hope the parts help your project mate

Hey Mate
