capone

Also I may have a full wiring schematics if you need

Just saw this, awesome car. Makes me pine for my 2's again. I will own a rotary again

Fuck yeah keen. Guy martin is funny as fuck. Just get Bruce anstey over and it will be too sweet.

thanks for posting, know what I am doing this boxing day

I think s2 & 3 are best, then 1, then batmans, then 5 then 4.

Pretty famous Austin

Looks like sheepers has traded his Mustang in on another Ford, good to see he is still working on the Crown though

Ok mr pedantic , or my 302w with 5 speed from a ford falcon

Get a holden or ford v8. I get 11L per 100km with my 96 falc

haha, my 12a got a shit load better mpg than my v8s. Around town in the Lincoln I get 1km per $. I dailed the rx2 as well and it was all good. Got just a tad worse with 13b bp and Ida but didn't build that for economy

Andy frost is an awesome guy too. Posts on nzv8 sometimes as mates with one of the guys there

I wouldn't touch my headers that are hpc coated again, unless i want more scars

Ive got hpc headers and like it but how does it compare to the wrap?

They still get damn hot

Haha, oops

Blown HQ is driven hard by a lady. Black falcon is EZPEEL and is damn quick

York or Tecumseh - for a 67 continental

Does anyone know if you can get electromagnetic ac clutchs rebuilt in NZ?

I can send it to the US but shipping is a pain

thanks

My 36 has a solitary vacuum powered wiper. Works sweet going uphill's, haha

A Continental in white, weird. Fucking cool mind you.

 

Any reason weird? Or that that just own in tri-black?

Cool car, where in NZ will you live?

that will be an awesome drag car to be at our strips

Yep good fan shrouds are like hens teeth. Hence why I fixed mine also.

any reason on electric fan, most time I hear they aren't as good as the engine driven with a good clutch.

love my vacuum locks, as the all drop one after the other.

you've done a sweet job on the Buick. Was the dash a mission and heavy bitch to get out. I got stuck under mine when it dropped on me. Had to call for help, haha

Had to do the hardened grease cleanup on my seats too. Don't think any old yank tank gets away with it. Cool mechanisms though for old school engineering. No wonder the cars are heavy.

I see your fan shroud is split too, another common yank issue. I used some fancy airplane 2 pot rain to fix mine. Holds sweet just have to clean up the excess.

does the Buick have much vacuum operated stuff? I have vacuum climate control, power locks, cruise control etc. mission to sort as all the lines are perished.

also in the process of rebuilding relays

Such a cool car

Yep turbo manual s40. would love to get $6k for it

pretty much the NZ attitude which makes so many lush cars cheaper than they need to be = win if you're not constant boner for FWD

not really an attitude on my part, I did buy it this way (and not when it was cheap). It would be a lot more fun if rwd though

I would recommend it and that s60 nigewade posted is sweet

Snapper - http://skandix.de/en/ - good for Saab parts too.

V8pete - my Volvo is 200hp stock with plenty of room for improvement. Handles really well as the S40 was a joint ventureon the chassis with mitsi evo3. Only issue is fwd.

Volvo parts just get in from skandix in Germany.they work with you on shipping and are cheap. I.e pressure cap for radiator reservoir $65 in NZ, 9 euro from skandix.

Volvos go so well and are definitely sleepers. Also for the money you get a hell of a lot of car
