There will be a lot of blood sweat and tears to get that one going. Not much rust.  Cheesy

Quote: maybe the qld club could host nats at "brownsville" sorry townsville. Although it is very green at present. God I hate rain when there is a deadline to meet.

You could go to Greenvale.  Grin Not to far from Brownsville.
We could all have a drink at the three rivers hotel. Tongue

34  Technical Board / General Technical / Re: 3.36 diff ratio,,,where do you find it? on: October 22, 2009, 04:28:42 PM
Would love to see more photos of the wrecks. Any chance? I went through some of the outback towns of WA many years ago and remember piles of old cars along the way.

I believe you can use a spray on cast.
The torch is like an oxy cutting torch but with a pot on the top into which you put a powder. The job is heated up with the oxy and when hot, the trigger is pressed on the torch and the powder is sprayed onto the prepaired parts joining them. When finished the part is put into lime to slow the cooling and stop cracking. We had one at an engineering shop I once worked at. A good welding shop would have one. Made by cigweld.

36  For Sale and Wanted / Parts Wanted / WTB Tin master cyl reservior lids. on: August 24, 2009, 06:20:45 PM
I'm after a couple of lids in usable condition to suit the original tin reserviors. Leave a message or contacts below.

37  Technical Board / Restoration Help / Re: Tin Reservoirs on: August 24, 2009, 06:11:49 PM
Thanks all. I'll get them Zinc coated.
The lids didn't come up to good. Rust holes around the edges, so I'm on the lookout for a couple. I have an old oil tin here and the lid from it fits on to the reservoirs but it is a bit different. I has a straight top without the raised lip and it hasn't got a vent hole. I will post in the wanted section for a couple. I may turn something up.
I've had the cylinders sleeved. They look great. I had lots of trouble removing the old pistons. Just couldn't budge them even soaking them and using an ezy out. In the end i just warmed each one up with the oxy around where the piston sat until I could see that the old rubbers were getting hot and gave thump on a piece of timber and presto, out they come. Didn't take much heat at all really.

Hi all,
I'm sure someones been down this road before.
I've been trying to restore a couple of tin master cylinder reservoirs. I have been able to remove the rust by soaking them in a solution. I have plans of painting the outside, but the inside had a fair bit of rust in places.
Will it be ok to leave the inside or will I need to get them plated.
If so, what type of plating would be required if any?

Picked up one of these gauges yesterday and a couple of master cyls with the tins in usable condition. They both have 'Holden' on the bodies and the lettering around the top of the tins.
$40 the lot. Grin
