November 18, 200916 yr Author comment_392111 Well its just about complete! Got to bung on a rear view mirror, and its off to get inspected for rego tomorrow! :y: Report
November 19, 200916 yr Author comment_392336 how'd the inspection go?? Passed! I really thought they would knock me back on something, but all good. They gave me an advisary warning about the key coming out of the ignition, and a worn front wheel bearing and rear uni joint. But the rest was all good! They were quite surprised that everything on the car worked! Looks shiney because we just wased it! Edited November 19, 200916 yr by sammo Report
November 21, 200916 yr Author comment_392743 So tomm starts up the tenner this arvo, to hear 'clack clack clack' coming from the top of the engine.....bent pushrod! I had a heap of K pushrods lying round (as you do!), seems ok for now.... Report
November 22, 200916 yr Author comment_392920 So again we had a pushrod magically fall out of place over night, on the day of the show. I don't know why this happened, but once the valve clearences were done, seemed ok. Made the show! Had quite a bit of interest, over heard one woman come up look all over the car, and tell her husband and kids, that she had one as her first car! And of course, we start her up at the end of the day, to see fuel pouring out of the fuel pump!-still have to get to the bottom of that one! Report
November 29, 200916 yr Author comment_394245 New fuel pump later, all fixed. Having driven the car around a bit, Ive discovered a few things.... Matt black makes it a moblie oven! The drivers seat has a much comfort as a church pew It has an alarming amount of body roll The synchro on 2nd gear is gooone And drum brakes are interesting... :jamie: but I love driving the thing! :yes: Report
