Men & sheds, doesn't matter what size you have its never BIG enough or has enough space to accommodate everything you want in there!!! To get around the "council rigmarole" of building a house/shed, my old man built his sheds first on the new block whilst the separate application for the house was being finalised. He actually ended up sleeping in the shed for the last few months whilst the house was being finished. Hopefully its not too much longer for you and you will have the shed up and back working on the old girl

Ben, What stud pattern are you running. I have Torana stubbs with commodore disc's and calipers. Not cheap mate as they were made/modified by castle main rod shop. Just putting it out there mate in case you get stuck. brett
Haven't settled on a stud pattern as yet Brett as it was dependent on what axles I could source first (kinda the arse about way of doing it I know) currently the car has a HR disc brake front end and HR drum rear. The plan was to keep it like this to get it mobile whilst doing the body work then go from there.

I'm chasing a set of HQ or Torana stub axles and bottom sub frame bolts so I can get this car up and rolling.
Happy to pay freight and would prefer complete units ready to bolt up.
Cheers
Ben

Apologies for digging up an old thread but thought it was better than starting a new one after I searched.
Just wondering if anyone has found that it is "cheaper" to buy from your local Rare Spares dealer (especially if buying in bulk) or online such as Ebay shops etc???
I require quite a few parts eg: rubbers, rust repair sections, nuts & bolts etc
Cheers
Ben

Rather than start a new thread I hope one of the Tassie blokes spots this and can let me know of a good engineer to use here in Hobart???

I've been using E-go from a few years now (car parts and golf equipment) and have never had any dramas with them.
I was using Pack & Send for a while but there rates crept up over a period of time and were not willing to "price match" so I stopped using them.

Personally Id never buy a helmet online unless its something I've previously tried on/used before hand and know it is the right fit for me.
Everyone's head is different and finding the right one for you isn't always straight forward (I tried on about 7 different helmets till I was happy) Also if money is tight at the moment, hold off till you can spend a little more rather than buying "cheap" because that's all you can afford at the time.
I had a cheap helmet once and the auto system on it failed very quickly and the delay was terrible, you only have one set of eyes and flash is not fun!!!
