How'd she go? 

Mobile Smales road was so cheap they had trucks coming through.

600 litres takes a while @ regular pump flow rates.

Guess the truck pumps round the back weren't on the same diesel rate.......... go figure.

Forecourt attendants, can I help you sir?
Yes, you can clean my windscreen if you like, don't lean on the vehicle.

Ford Ranger, you gotta be 10 feet tall to not lean on the vehicle

Like those fucking hood rats at the lights with their shitstain shirts and metal belt buckles, fuck off cunts.

A friend of mine is about to spend $26k here apparently. (gotta spend those cap gains somewhere)

So he did a little digging and they seem to come up pretty well.
Out in Puke.

You well deserving bastard

I hear GT refinishers are the go too also.

Grant and Co. are pretty dang good, I use em for painting my signs, helps when I can point to their website and say "SEE WHY THIS IS EXPENSIVE! BECAUSE GOOD"

Wish they'd take down Talent 2 though..... since NZ now hates them, hahaha

Drop him a line and tell him what you want to do, hopefully he'll fill in the blanks

Fuck me, what ratshit.

Any chances of posting the auction "for educational purposes" not for NAMING THAT CUNT so that we know who to AVOID at all costs (or bump into in the dark)

Shit... how I resize you!!?!?!?

That angle, hood and rear quarter/door like they gave up.

Otherwise fuck yeah!

Awww.... you make a few Allegros and Morris Marinas and you're tarred with the shit brush forever
Hahahaha!

They don't seem to have wheel bearing problems anymore.

I did some work for a Kia dealership, I asked if they still used forkhoist wheel bearings, I don't do any more work for that Kia dealership.

I wonder if you could plead you were drunk at the time and therefore your intentions were clouded at the time.
Probably a lesser conviction.............

Are you calling me a dickhead?

This should be your signature

I parrot others and say GET A LAWYER or, at the very least, advice from one.
Best of luck!

Perfect, we have another project thread!

Unless you actually listened to that silly man at compliance?
Don't worry about it costing more than the car is worth.
If our cars have a full tank they've doubled in value

Oh yes, there will be more rust.

If you like the car (of course you do, what's not to like?) pull the insides out.
Floor, firewall bottom and top of firewall.

I'd refer you to my w114 thread..... lol.

Wonder what it'd look like with the tops of the doors/window frames done in black instead of white.
The white/white makes the b-pillar look pretty large.
Or even red....... just not white (visual weight n all)
Photoshop if you post up a photo from the side?

P.S: Love it and the plans.

That is a brilliant first post!
Jacks thread.
Dereg car.
Rust.
Homer.
Is Girl.
Help!
 

Also.
PICS.
Thanks.

That sort of thing?
A picture would be neat, you could pull yours out and probably machine off a good chunk of it and put the terminals out the side instead of the top.

Good on you for asking

This may seem normal to some, but id have a hard time asking for a hand if I were on fire. Getting help always seems harder than doing it yourself, that now includes buying things. Haha.

Best of luck chappos!

This is awesome.
I am happy for you!

Wire it to the "on/run" circuit through a relay. We shouldn't leave our vehicles off when "on/run" so that should sort it

I guess if you left em on then did a nice rich start that'd shock em a bit.

From a datsun 1200 website.... I thought they were non-crossflow, but I digress from digressing.
Looks cool......... but that's a lot of compressed fuel/air mixture!!!!!!!
I'd put in a blowUP valve in there.

There is/was a chap in Waitoa, Waikato who had a flat track something maybe a Fiat, pretty sure it was a Fiat 4 cylinder.
It was supercharged draw though that looked very built for purpose.
His nickname was Nigger Crusher, though I'm not sure anyone actually called him that.
They were different times the 90's.

Wonder how much of a bastard a flame arrestor would be.... in conjunction with the blowUP valve.

Happy tinkering.

I'm sorry about the notifications.
I may have LIKED ALL THE THINGS!!!!!!!!!!!

I admire your bitumen underseal scraping supremacy.

Suppose it's not too far OT.

Specific heat is the amount of heat energy require to raise the temperature of a mass by 1C.

I was just kind of trying to illustrate, in a round about way, that it's not the temperature so much as the amount of heat energy being created. If it was just down to temperature then everything would melt as soon as the sparkplug went off

At cruise you're not creating large amounts of heat energy because you don't need to, as you are cruising.
If you went WOT at the same AFR then you're creating a lot of heat energy @ a high temp (which means it transfers into the mass faster due to temp gradient) beyond the ability of the coolant system to transfer the heat away.
So both power (see above graphs) and temperature is why AFRs get lower under increased load.
 

A car may like 14.7 at cruise due to gearing/spark/head design/octane/induction/air density/million things more than a leaner burn.
Probably not so much modern engines with their targeted afr design parameters and their precious metal mine in the exhaust

I'm pretty sure you know all this and it was just my obscure way of putting things

Both hands on the wheel please driver

Think more specific heat instead of temperature Rookie.

That probably hasn't helped.

I found this was a nice summary when I first started looking at such things.

Face for radio that man.
Who knew I'd be pining for Clarkson because he is (relatively) a beauty to behold.
