bloody  grouse

ratbox,i am in awe,you love matt,gave me a lotta inspiration.
was the orange pano at nostalgias  at wsid last year purple then turned orange at next one?didn't have scallops then but.nice

john cains whitewalls,155,165,175,185/80/13s from $240 to $255,the cheapest i've found,does anyone know what is the widest rim a 185 will go on ,i've got 7 inch rims,205s at the moment,would the 185 work/look alright?

could ya glue them on for longer lasting/higher speeds,been wondering about porta walls myself,starting to love my black beauties,after doing some price queries,someone tellin me kuhmo are making em,if so anyone got a rough price?300 bucks is alot and seems to be standard price with others i've checked.could ya paint em on,surely there is something durable enough these days that may last,

porta walls(portable white walls)

know what you mean about dont tell him too much,went to see a guy with my oldman (told him not to speak),next minute he knows everything.thanks dad

i got an ek motor if ya need it .swapped mine for a two speed preslite one off a late sixety's  volksy bolted straight up to the backing plate of the ek one.and just wondering ken when you make it two speed does that mean first speed is only half speed.was gonna do this but found a better option with the beetle motor.

hey fc 427  .do ya need passenger side?had my ute stored outside at a rent a space, a truck smashed into  it. still trying to get cash off the guy cause rent a space take no responsibility for it even though i was paying 150 bucks a month for a carpark outside.
 its your's if ya need it, its just got a big crease in door skin.(fixable)
just wondering if you should really cut a nos door,isn't that bad,i can feel people cringing 

throw the bloody radio out the window and listen to that baby purr i reckon

does anyone know how much travel is needed for bumps i thought it was more than an inch,sure if your torry was stiff ,but half inch sounds awfully tight.think i had more than an inch on my hd and it would still bottom out.also speaking of chopped springs just pulled mine out .one of the coils is bent so bad it is touching the other,always chopped em before but now i'm thinking better get some made.does anyone know somewhere cheap in sydney,pedders quoted $170 for front springs.

i get so worried about this engineer thing cause my silly honda mechanic mate keeps telling me i'm gonna have a list as long as my arm of things to fix.i think i've been going overboard because this lawnmower mechanics been in my ear.i am the fussiest bugger when it comes to the ute cause my old man is bodgey and i listened to him on previous builds(hd&a ht) when i was younger,so i'm all about good workmanship these days,so i have no qualms about making it right .thanks all for giving me faith,especially ken as always.i think i have been worrying too much.
cheers wayne

hey ken you said suitable sealant,you mean liquid nails or something.wouldn"t i be better off welding the plates to the floor?if so could the plate be smaller than those dimensions?also does the pillar need strengthening to accept bolt,dont wanna rip my good headlining trying to plate there.at the moment it just bolts through.i must also add that these laws are a good thing as this car was very bodgeyed up andwas a death trap.i have wanted to fix everything properly not for laws sake but the safety of me and my passengers.

hey after some  good front outer door handles

thanks again guys,was gonna get everything right anyway but now got more of an idea what to expect
regards wayne

im in nsw.do you think the under the dash horn is legal?expecting him to say its gotta be more accessible

are lowering blocks legal in all states?scared to put them on before engineers report

just wondering what are the smaller things an engineer may pick,do i have to plate seat belts,previous owner just bolted through floor,no interior lights,my horn is on a button under dash,allmy heater squirters etc under dash,is this legal?just bodgeying it up to get it to him,but thinking it might be better to fix everything properly,is it better to leave a couple small things wrong so he may overlook bad work(welding etc)done previously?told him i'm a boilermaker,scared i'm gonna have to fix previous owners shoddy work,or am i worried about nothing?

is cutting the bump rubbers legal to engineer?heard you can get smaller ones

thanks terry cant really drive it yet but gives me a little more of a positve attitude

thanks fc427 its all about fun
