Brand new to this forum and have already learnt so much. Have done a couple of partial rebuilds in the past ( HG and HK ) but this will be my first full restoration
Just gotta sought this photo bucket thing out and I will be in business
Cheers Woody, have worked with Sarge (Western Wagon) a bit and he is just in Pleasant Grove, so I'll be looking to him for a bit of info along the way.
Will look forward to going for a cruise will you lads when the ol girl is up and running
Some good progress today
Some pretty dodgy floor pan replacement
All in all though it's not in to bad a shape, getting diamond blasted in a couple of weeks, so all will be revealed
Yeah it's not the best job I've seen, nothing that can't be fixed though. The rest of the car is in very good nick.
I'll be sticking to a mostly original theme, with some subtle modifications along the way. The brakes and diff will get an upgrade but keeping the original grey and gearbox, paint will be original from that year but not sure what the colour and trim is of the car as the ID plate has been ground off for some reason. I can't seem to find a chassis number either and the car came unregistered and no transfer papers from the previous 2 owners, so may run into a few issues come registration time. Hopefully nothing that can't be sorted.
Used to live over in San Remo but just a built a house in Seascapes so definitely keeping busy
The only number I can find is on the the left hand side of the engine bay - FB 7731P. Really not sure what that is referring to, is that a chassis number?
Any suggestions ?? as Trev says, with no ID tag's it could become an issue
Think a phone call to the licensing dept on Monday is on the cards
If ya don't care about the original colour etc , I will have a plate you can use or if you want a pacific colour just ask mate , sure to be someone out there that will have one ..............Fingers
Don’t you find it Funny that after Monday(M) and Tuesday(T), the rest of the week says WTF?
