Will there be a trophy for ‘longest distance travelled’ for this event?

That firewall cut is a handy piece of kit. Looks to be saving the old body from a few contortions. I used a cable also when I put the 5 speed in the FB I sold to Mad Pete. Can’t remember exactly how I did the pedal end but similar. I’m sure Pete’s given it a good workout. Any more pics of the Tasman...

Blacky, How is the Red Rattler revamp coming along? It’s about time for an update.

I’ve been waiting for the number plate police to show up.

WooHoo Neil. Congratulations. That is a great feeling after all of your hard work.

Good to see that you’re edging closer, Neil.

Blacky, that 2 door should be on the road at the end of isolation.

Hi Neil and Harv,

My Panelvan weighed in at 1380 kg (740 kg front axle, 640 kg rear ) for rego.
307 Chev, th350, VN rear axle, 60 lt mustang tank, lots of dynamat everywhere.

Yes, I’m ready this year.
Engine is running fine.

Nice one Neil.

You know that you need another project. And it’s an FB.

Hi Neil,
I believe that Rare Parts / Rare Spares have the rods and also the mechanism for the handle. No handles but.
I discovered this AFTER refurbishing mine for the van.
Trevor.

Is that the latest model Stromberg?
