Nice work Wasim, looking good

I bought an old rear window demister about 20 years ago and I guess it was already 20 years old back then?

Anyway it fitted up OK - I was concerned it may have lost it’s “stickiness”.

Rear sway bar looks to clear the shocks well. Any details please?

what make of shock absorbers have you used ?

[Wasim]

I started with a holden rear bar - can't remember what it was off (?) - anyway I fitted to the rear end with no shockers in place to determine where it would hit the shockers and then with some measurements - a cardboard template - using oxygen acetylene - bend the bar - had to adjust a couple of times.

Once the clearance of the shockers was good I then installs to mounting points to the chassis rails.

Cheers, Wasim

Shockers are Monroe GT 40's.

All the chrome plating has been done - very expensive but very happy. A Class in Lonsdale SA did the chrome work.
All the wiring is finished and tested and the engine is running again.
I’ll put the dash back together next week.
Next job is the body work - a tiny amount of rust repairs needed and a few small dents.

Cheers, Wasim
