Sits nice on the strip Harv- low 13's I reckon is pretty impressive... I'd be stoked with that, good job!

Cheers, Melly

Re: Clay’s Wedgewood Blue FB Ute

Nice work Clay, good find- could've been a lot worse had you not got there in time eh? Bit of reprofiling there...

Re: Handbrake help

Cheers Greg/ Clay- with all the hardware gone these are the main bits, so only 1 pin Clay. Attached a pic of the intermediate lever fittings on the car- it’s a manual now but think was auto originally. Will need some bits so appreciate the help. Greg are the door shims those perforated looking thing...

Hi guys, I have moved onto another box which had a pile of stuff labelled handbrake. I'm trying to work out what ive got and theres plenty of useful threads and pics on here, but ive obviously got some key bits missing and some not relevant.

Re: Red Rattler Revamp

Good progress Blacky- what type of hinges are they mate and how are they snubbed? looks like a setup like that could fix my fouling issues?

Re: Melly's EK wag find

Used commonly to replace the big nut, original from HK on. It is fouling because it is a modification to the original single circuit master. Moving it over slightly shouldn’t cause binding of the pedal and Clovis mechanism. This is a common modification. I haven’t done it myself but plenty have, an...

Re: Melly's EK wag find

If that MC was used commonly Clay how come mine is fouling?I...

Re: Melly's EK wag find

Hey All been a while, had a little bit of time to put some stuff together and find a lot of stuff missing (or bent and buckled). Worked out that they are SLR discs and believe the master to be torana also (note handcrafted adaptor plate), but when i put the bonnet on the R/H hinge spring fouls with ...
