Mikes HK Wagon
Re: Mikes HK Wagon
Heater is out of a 60 series landcruiser.
They are fitted under the drivers seat in the landcruiser and the heater lines run under the floor, hence the bottom barb fittings.

UPDATE!!!!!
Hey guys bit of an update
i have 2 weeks off school for between term break they start Monday
but i had today off and im having tomorrow off as well
so today i started panel work on the spare R/H/F guard i got with the car the one currently on the car has small damage but is rusty on the wheel arch
so with the help of dad (HPaddict) i got the spare down to bare metal today
my first time doing proper panel work and i loved it
it had some bog in it over small dents that are easily fixable that will be getting hammered flat again
it has a major rust hole at the bottom of the wheel arch at the back of the guard that dad is going to cut out and weld in a new plate it has small rust in the top of the wheel arch but is only minor so dad is going to weld it up
being my 1st time using the sanding disc on the buff i was working slowish and gentle it took me 1hour to do half the guard
5 o`clock came and there was still half a panel to do so dad took over and being an EX panel beater/spray painter by trade he got the rest done in 5 minutes making me look like an idiot
anyway its now in bare metal and ready for repairs
enough of me blabbing on here is some pics
the pic of the headlight surrounds as promised on the 26th august
heres the guard
what i did
and what dad did
Thanks Dad for helping me out today i would probably still be there if you didnt take over
so thats the progress report (for now)
cheers

Re: Mikes HK Wagon
everyone is slow when they first start, just a matter of getting used to it. you'll get plenty of practice
'The best engine in the world is a vagina. It can be started with only one finger. It is self-lubricating. It takes any size piston. And it changes it's own oil every four weeks. It is a pity that the management system is so f*$king temperamental.'
Re: Mikes HK Wagon
yep aggreed mate i was just touching the guard and working majorly slow at 1st haha after 10 mins i was working at a good pace with just enough pressure but my wrist was aching so i had to keep stopping haha

Re: Mikes HK Wagon
Looking forward to the pics mate!
I reckon every man and his dog have owned a HK/T/G, and theres a good reason for it, good cars!!
My first car was a HT Kingswood sedan, bought it of my old mans mate that'd had it since new always garaged, immaculate. 186 3 speed.
All I had to do was drop it on its guts
That was 18 years ago. Sold it 15 years ago for $1800
Geez I wish I still had it, best car I've ever had I reckon!
You'll be a pro in no time if you listen to your old man mate, he'll be able to teach ya all the little tricks that us porpers have to find out the hard way
Keep up the good work mate
Cheers Muza
