  1. And the price tag probably helped
  2. Don't stress guys $30 will see ya right.
  3. Strange about the axle. We put a good number of kms on those axles once they got shortened and I assume it's still the same set up.
  4. I like this style decal. Pink fucking roolz and you know it
  5. Good to know. I was fairly sure you didn't need them but yeah these guys know it all.
  6. Bump. Saw a conversation on fb today where a couple of wof inspectors say they won't pass a car that doesn't have reverse lights. It's been a decade have the rules changed?
  7. This thread is so old all the photos are broken Not much has changed, still goes hard for what it is. Recently replaced the front shocks and trimmed the springs a little. I had a garage fire a couple of years ago and insurance were nice enough to pay for some paint touch ups cos the car got a bit smokey. Hasn't had a wof since 2019 so if someone wants to mail me one that would be great.
  8. Got dicked around by Classic Industries for months but we got there in the end. Dash pad, parcel shelf and glovebox innards sorted.
  9. If someone reminds me I can make inquiries at work about what the situation may be with closures and the likes. One of our guys is up there looking after the storm recovery traffic management.
  10. They're just Triangles finest 175 70 r14s to get rolling before MCM next weekend.
  11. Well that's a bit better. Truespoke Supremes in 14x7 reverse offset. Cost a f'n fortune to get here but I'm impatient.
  12. Nah, LA Wellington brought it into NZ in Feb and it was legal in March.
  13. Priced up supremes today. It came into the country on some but they were long gone.
  14. Surprisingly wasn't too much difference between Datsun sale price and Chev purchase price thankfully so the mazda is safe.
  15. I'm a big fan of the fawn and green interior
  16. Discuss here Sharn incoming. Lots of words not many photos (yet). So, I'd been wanting to buy an Impala for a while and when the datsun popped up I thought it could be a good opportunity to make some money to put towards owning one. Unfortunately prices went crazy this year so it still seemed out of reach. As soon as it sold I put an ad up on one of the Facebook pages and I think I only got two responses. One was for a car way out of my budget and the other was a Bel Air in Wellington that looked rough. Anyway as time went on the Bel Air started to look like it could be worth looking at. I messaged @crustywhip and he was in the UK. Oh. No worries, if the guy still has it when Kane gets home we'll go from there. Thankfully the car wasn't actually advertised for sale so when it came time to revisit the idea it was still available. Kane had a look for me last week and determined that yes the body and interior is beat up but it is original and mechanicals are good. That was enough for me. Flight booked. "Hey m8. Have a 64 Belair if u interested? Have just put brand new mags on it also. Has NO RUST and has been through compliance etc when my m8 I brought it off had it. New body mounts and vtnz checked and wof also. Awesome tidy car and drives mint as! All original paint, carpets , seats etc etc so been untouched part from the wheels haha. It’s got a good 307 in it at the moment. My m8 had the bottom end checked by his mechanic and all tidy as. Only looking at selling to by a new vehicle for my new business otherwise I’d keep it 100% send u some pics" So anyway. Picked it up on Saturday and drove it home yesterday. It was tidier than I thought it would be and it drove well so I'm pretty stoked. I'll add some photos when I next drive it. Plans are to get rid of the 20"s asap and go to 14"s. Get some of the body tidied up (There's a gark down the right side and some dents in the roof I wouldn't mind disappearing). A new hoodlining, probably a stereo, and all going well hydros.
