Thanks for the reply Nathan. I believe gears are also available from the states. They are Dana Spicer product.

Looking good mate
When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.

Cheers fella's.

the rubbers are rares ones i've had for a couple of years... I was away when they got installed, Scotty from Allwest came out and did them with a new front window, the rears an original obviously. Back one fell in front was a little bit of work I believe, the front rubber does need to settle a bit, theres probably better ones out there, but hopefully it will settle in a few weeks. Chrome went in fine but

Looks very nice Nathan. If only the General had offered a grey bent 8 back in the day for a few extra pounds and shillings over the grey six........
