Phworrrrrr You get rid of the Gamma which was spectacularly rare, and you replace it with the "poor man's E Type" Goddamn I'm impressed, I love these! I have a PI engine on my garage floor as we speak its the full fat 132hp one too. Come on the shed tour and check it out

The Dude replied to Threeonthetree's topic in Upper North Island Region
I think maybe most of us will have seen the new shed before, but we figure a few of ya haven't and it is a nice easy stop on the way. and we just needed another shed to fill a little time And for a bonus this time its free -
Car Storage Auckland / North Island - for 2 years :-(
The Dude replied to grantdavis28's topic in Upper North Island Region
Hard earned experience, I have a FE VX490 sitting in my shed right now that will need all the previous restoration work re-restored Containers can be made fine, but they need 1. checking through everynow and again, because they rust and begin to leak. 2. Airing out because they attract all the mosture in the air, which condenses on the roof and drips all over the car during the morning, and then turns back to humidity in the day and F$%ks everything! 3. lining with ply , then they become a nice garage without all the problems of 2.!!! Come and check out my Vx on the shed tour! -

Don't container it, unless you line it, or the container will sweat and rust your car to buggery!!! The you store places are $50 a week for a garage I think. -
I'll be rolling Jappa hard again, in the missis SZ Accord

I'll vouch for TypaRacer Rons a good dude and I know him well. -
No apparently it was never painted, so detective or undercover, or something like that I guess, I have no idea what NZ had in the 70's In the UK it could have been detective, undercover, or diplomatic protection or RPS.(although they are usually modified in some way!)
-
I think its probably going to look better in the original colour, its not quite a hideous as it looks in the pic, a bit more yellow. And since this thing is an ex police car, the colour it came in would make it worth more right? Imagine it, 253, three on the tree, and all original.

Yes, yesssssss Now we're talking

I highly approve of this insanity

I love the one with the guns. I think I should just have one personal quick release wheel that fits all my cars. Way easier to find than Keys
