There’s nothing worse

[Blacky]

Than running out of projects- apparently

Just to make sure I never find out if that’s true I bought this today

I am the third owner , the fella I bought it from has had it for 30 ish years, it’s been pretty much parked up and only had occasional use for the last 10 - has some rust issues and needs bushes and brakes, the usual stuff.

Hasn’t made it to 200,000 km yet , not bad for 46 years old- is very original, has a aftermarket radio, the original rims and hubcaps are there , it has a cheap tachometer under the dash and one mystery switch- apart from that is stock as a rock 202 3 on the tree - just the way the good lord intended

That is a great score, it’s a good thing your retired and experienced in multi tasking projects

Very nice.

Is the nanna blanket on the front seat needed (heater core shagged, or front seat torn)?

Any plans for a period correct bogan resto (Caprice front clip, 350/350, Armourlites, Kenwood sticker on back window)?

Cheers,
Harv

Please no Greg!

Westinghouse White. HZ with the RTS and not quite as bad as the HX on the anti-pollution spaghetti-fest. I had a van version. Good on the highway but hard to park.

At this point its fix the rust and touch up the paint, do the brakes - it does stop well and pulls up straight but the pads and rotors are very old , rebush the front end and cal it done.


I DO however, have an LS1 and a conversion kit in the shed that and a rear mounted turbo or 2 and here we come drag challenge

Seeing as the rattler was at a standstill again I tore into this instead- want to get the rust sorted out and rebuild the front end for rego purposes
