Good thinkin` ! Looks like a pretty good body in the photos , how is it for rust ???

Andrew , you must have balls of steel to take to a fuel tank with an oxy !!!

Can anyone tell me what is going on this year for the nationals ?
i.e. where and when they are on , who is going , etc ?

G`day John , I have an FB wagon I am wrecking at the moment , it has all the bits you will need if you cant get them locally.
They should be fairly easy to get hold of seeing as everyone else removes the vacuum setup to fit electric !

G`day all , I am getting rid of the 16" Commodore wheels and want to run 15" steelies , what size tyres have you all got and do you have any dramas with them rubbing ? The EK now has 225/50/16 tyres and they rub on the inner guards on the rear when hooning around corners. I want to run 15x...

Welcome to the forum Michael , youve built yourself a very nice looking machine mate , looks like a sister car to Petrolheads , similar colours at least .
What seats are you running in the front ? Any more details - engine , box , diff , etc? Cheers , Blacky.

Whoops , I buggered that up , sorry guys , I hope you have widescreen monitors ! Think I will stick to one picture per post .
