Please tell me the canadian club can is the air filter and not just sitting there

its direct dry injenction . but with the alchohol tax its gettin quite expensive to drive. :rock:

Drive around with a bunch of fat dudes.

 

Seriously, lowered springs in the front, lowering blocks in the rear.

If you want to do it properly get the rear springs reset.

lucky i have an abundance of fat dudes. cheers

alrighty time for an update . engine is up to standards

time to start on the body. this arvo i got stuck in because there was still light.

removed the lights and and gave them a fine coat of tint.

 

 

Then got stuck into sanding down the rear end. surprisingly clean .

 

and thought to ad a few pics of interior..

till next time

Alrighty picked up a weber from tally today. (many thanks tally ) so tommorrow ill be bolting that onto the boss ,removing the doors and sanding ... and sanding ... and sanding. got too love it.

didnt get as many hours in as i would have liked due to alchohol but got a fair bit done . sanded and spray puttied. also got behind grill sprayed, grill and side vents sprayed.. :rock:

kinda like this colour reminds me of my mates granpas datsun 180bsss

tried to get the adaptor for the weber but the idiots at auto pro ordered the wrong one. but i took the brakes apart and gave them a quality clean and brush down then painted the drums and calipers red for just a touch of colour for the car. hoping to spray two weeks from now and then its on the road.

parents have just sold the house so i have to put the cart back together before it can be registered and driven. so got the missus involved taping up the windows and i just gave it a can primer coat . the finish job will have to wait till i get my new house. but atleast ill be on the road in for the first time since the engine swap.

 

 

just thought id ad this lady swerved for something in the dark and ended up in my paddock

spent a fair while working on the car today just getting it primer grey and straight. then put it all back together and chucked 3 months rego on. .......

 

IT IS ALIVE ! went for a flog around the back streets . i havent actually driven the car since october last year and it went really well. temp stayed even, could do with a professional tune one i get an airfilter. and the 34 weber actually performed. really well( to my surprise after reading about them) all in all good day.

 

tried to get some pics but it was getting dark

brand new hurricane extractors are on and sensual, always happy with a few more berries!

 

 

just a pic at the shop:

loving it mate..!

those rims are PIMP

cheers , moneys a bit tight at the moment since ive just bought my first house and it has an 8 X6 garage , and my fiance doesnt have a car so its all mine.. can't wait to finish the spray.
