April 24, 201610 yr Author comment_704235 Like a blast from the past ^_^ Little blue beast lives on as my daily, end of this week she will have clicked over 10,000 kms ! Sir Med-Man saved my ass a few months ago discovering a hellish intermittent fault - wet weather, car would not start. Elec Fuel pump would not kick in. Any guesses ? lol. Wet weather I would have the front demister on with the blower fan on low. Turns out the variable fan speed resistor Red/White wire was mistaken for a solid earth. Sooo... everytime the fan was on 1, the car would not start. Car broke down in my driveway 5 odd times over the years.. once running, was ok, just not enough to start the wincam as my brother calls it. Apart from that *TOUCH WOOD* it's been a turn key reliable daily that sings to 8-thousand quite happily. I won't be selling her any time soon. Been collecting too many new bits. Maybe part of her will be up for sale though.. he he he :devil: #itneverends Report

April 25, 201610 yr comment_704238 Is that a hint at an engine conversion or am I just wishful? Report
November 8, 20169 yr comment_706905 So I found this thread just a few days ago and read the whole thing and was blown away by the commitment and incredible build that has been done. And then, I happened to be in a part of town I've never really been to and look what I find. How incredible that I get to see this masterpiece after a just a few days of reading about it. Also sorry for the crappy iphone photos. Report

August 9, 20188 yr comment_715224 It was stipped chemically with regular household paint stripper. Probably hit it with a 60 grit orbital sander disc after the paint was removed. Report
