igor

I was going to say green cos next door neighbour's mother-in-law had a green one in the '70s and I really liked the look of it.

No worries. Just a random thought. The one on the Pulsar isn't critically damaged yet.

Is the radiator overflow bottle from the GA15DE going to become surplus to your requirements? The one on my youngest's Pulsar is cracked and has a hole in it.

It's a wagon. It'll have springs to suit its load carrying capacity. Put 600kg in the back and it'll look slammed.

Inclined to agree with Bryan. Not a crazy stretch though. Perhaps a narrower rim might be the way to go?

Apart from the taillights what are the differences between Mk3 and Mk4?

At first glance I thought was your inverted cross was a flaming sword. Either way a very clever project.

Condolences on your loss Alex. Thank you for sharing some of your family's history.

Please do it.

You must have remarkably thin arms Sam.

You're fucked. I've just recently replaced all those hoses on mine. You'll have to take the manifold off to reach anything. Check the distributor cap, rotor and leads while you're in there.

Is anything happening this month? I'm coming home to Northland for a few weeks to help out my brother who has broken his leg. Would be keen to attend a meet and put faces to names.

Is that a group activity Bryan?

True that.

That sounds particularly uncomfortable.

Obviously the beemer, lol. But seriously the slightly older Swift could be the go. Can't see the logic in paying $3k more for what is effectively the same car.

Mini seats are smaller. edit; Left and right front seats in these are interchangeable. Could you get away with putting the fucked one on the passenger's side when you take it for a wof?

Another ADO16 owner here. According to the UK dealer brochure from back in the day rear seatbelts were a factory option on these meaning that there should be threaded mounting holes for them already in there somewhere. Might be BS cos I've never managed to find them on my Wolseley 1300 but have a look anyway and if you find them please let us all know where they are.

More than 7hp?

My first though was also Mini or ADO16 but perhaps something from a small diesel tractor might have more cooling capacity?

Is it not a requirement to get a wof prior to registration? Or is that only to renew the licence when the car is already registered?

Yeah but he doesn't work there anymore.

And ignores the potential for getting stuck and/or not fitting through the gap where the wee Suzuki would go through cos smaller and lighter.

Wouldn't a man who dresses like that be more likely to smoke a pipe?

Wifey's '03 Ipsum achieved 11.83 litres per 100km / 23.9 mpg over 444 km towing this 8x4 tandem trailer both laden and unladen including three shortish local trips each with a ton of potatoes on board and a day trip to Middlemarch to collect 28 bales of hay. Pleasantly surprised. I expected it to hog the juice a lot more than that. Lunch at the Kissing Gate café in Middlemarch is also to be recommended.
