Yes indeedy, one of our members has done it. I would take the opportunity also, considering the rest. My bench only goes back to the second or third to last notch. Ideally I t would be a bit past the last notch, not short. I have worked out a comfy seating though. I plant my arse as far back as I ca...

I wi let you do the reveal on the front screen lip, but looks pretty good. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240525/a5b2efb64237a3be30bf65c83153be26.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240525/04faf428c3294e87e5664706d786e30d.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240525/8a839a1e2ed68a7c326a6965f...

Thompson chassis at Traralgon make the rear ute floor now. Otherwise you can cut up a panel van like I had to do. Some parts I used on my ute and some went to other forum members fairly recently. Front and rear floor panels are readily available, generally through rare spares. Thompson chassis or so...

82C thermostat Greg. STD 186 bore in a 179, with 3 core HR radiator. Usually runs cold. Full throttle run up main Willunga hill road, 110kh all the way up. Temperature got to 86 and seemed to level off. Took a while to come back down to around 75, coasting down the old road. Ambient is around 12, so...

Brake pedal sorted. I should have unbolted the master from the firewall at the outset. Glovebox sorted. Running sweet at 11degrees initial. Stopped pinging for now.

I may just throw in one of the rough ones I have for the time being, and concentrate on some cup holders. Interior light had a wet splice under the driv...

There are two gauges used Stephen, as is the case pretty much with the entire car, as far as panels go. The larger sheet panels are 20# 0.9mm, and the more structural legs, dumb irons and tie are 18# 1.2mm.

Thanks for the offer Brett. I want to sort if before Friday week, so I will see what I can source locally.
