i have a ute here with a very simular heater i think they're FE/FC and i think i read on there forum there should be a tube running from the round part at the end out through the side panel of radiator support this supplies the air flow and as expected the hoses supply the hot water for heat

[Fud]

Thanks Guys, I am up to the expensive part now, today my mum came up to me and said, its your birthday tomorow, what would you like, at first I said, a set of double strombergs, she lookaed at me for a minute and then said, 'and what is that?', I was like oh, dont worry, I can do without those so I proposed that I need a rubber kit, I hope it comes in soon so I can continue on my merry way, today I painted the seat frames and tried to get my heater working, I have a warmerride heat and was wondering how is the easiest way to see if it will work or is terminaly broken?

[samprinci]

might be good to check out Harv's extensive Heater Doco?????. But if yours is FC, not sure that it covers FC???

[Fud]

cheers michael, I have been a bit slow latley, I nearly have the tray finished, got the seat material at the shop as well as the carpet, waiting for a call now, removed dints from the petrol tank, soldered up the holes and am starting to bog over the solder, bought some tank sealer and cameo paint to do some more parts. hopefullt It will speed up a bit now, got all lights working and started to install rubber kit, been a bit slow due to the cold and lack of sunlight after school. I will put up some photos soon.

Cheers Fud

A little update, I have been getting along a bit in the work, all lights are working, windows and windscreens are all in, the heater is working, upholstery is done and i am now chasing a set of 13 x 6 rims for rego.

[Fud]

Here are some of the photos I promised, sorry it has been a long time coming, hope you enjoy. I have to start to bold the jewlery back on and off to the exhaust shop to try to get a nice note out of her.













Cheers Fud

Looking good Fud, when you get it up and running I'll make a trip up there to check it out

Interior looks shit hot, I'm up to the interior myself at the minute. Can't wait to see how it looks completed as I'm sure you can't .

[Trev]

Real nice Fud .

[Fud]

Thanks Guys, at least a few people appreciate the time and money im puting into the ute, most the people at school would relate me to a homosexual for having a pink ute. I think that its just that they cant appreciate a classic car, or the rareness of having a factory, matching numbers pink ute. I dunno, i just carry on with my own buisness and dis regard all that they say.

Cheers Fud
