Re: Small Block for EK Wagon
Well the wagon has been a bit of a storage container slowly gathering surface rust, gave it a quick rub and some Anti-Ox
This stuff is amazing, quick wipe with a scouring pad and wipe off with a damp cloth then dry
Ready for som epoxy
Time to get this one moving
Mustang tank tomorrow
I’ll try a bit of a how to

Re: Small Block for EK Wagon
Good to see its going to get some attention Gazza, they all rust over time and I had to do the same thing after a few months passed.
Where does the time go ?

Cheers Greg
Finally got the 283 back together, hopefully off for a dyno run next time home
Not sure what it will go in yet
Should be a fun little engine

good to see some progress Gazza, not sure which project is going to take longer to get done , your wagon or my 2 door ......
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.

Bit more progress today, tank is in now to try make it look factory, this will require beer. Not sure if I will run the frame, thinking of bead rolling one.
Might have a crack at the 4- link next break
Also had to get some light in there. Rocker cover light
Has been in the making almost as long as the wagon
New interior light
I beam front end

Finally some much needed shed time, bit more progress on the wagon
Some mods to the chassis kit before installing, just waiting on front subframe to come back from blasters.
Steering wheel repaired and sent another column to Alien Retros
Bit more work on the Mustang tank, and assembled IFS
- unpack the 4-Link in the morning
IFS assembled- dam this thing is quality

Hi Gazza;
Good to hear you are back on the wagon.
Who are you using to do your blasting mate, I spoke to Tom at Retroblast just before Xmas to get my wagon blasted to find out he has hurt himself, he does a really fair price for us.
