It was 80s state of the art stuff

No problem I was at a customers today and he was dumping one of the old engine tune systems with the rpm dwell etc and the exhaust analyser I think he just wanted the wheels on the frame

Got one never used it I'm in Karori ( pretty sure in in the garage under the house loll)

I'm fitting a early commodore indicator stalk to my wb has any one got a scan of the wiring diagram I could have so I can work out the colour coding to add to the confusion my wiring harness the colour on the wires is different to the schematic I have

I have a spare tonner rts chassis the Ute chassis is shorter

I hope its a pick up so you can ship back all the goodies in the tray that I might need

Dam wish it was in Wellington Mrs young fella is wasting his time at school ( he goes there for the football and the harem he has acquired ) Really needs to start a trade as he's mechanically minded

Does stealies give tig lessons?

Howatt engineering

As a general costing insurance co allow $180 per panel that needs no preparation ( scuff mask and paint )

And if the weather is shot will there be a alternative On a different note I might use it as a excuse to fire up the old 4x4 and trundle it down to the beach its been sitting that long the gear linkage was frozen

Some of then are pretty reclusive about what toys they have simply because of the value but as customers of mine I get to poke around for example the hrd Vincent are valued at serious coin in the black shadow register and easy to get stolen . He's a panel shop owner that now only works between his around the world bike trips on his bikes like London to Vladivostok (sp) hates older and project cars The rambler is owned by a panel beater that likes older cars and was saying he should really get rid of it as he hasn't touched in in many years

And unknown to you ,you will drive past many many old school cars like Datsun sss very early 280z a bunch of Saabs rambler 2 door convertible couple of e types one guy has 2 Vincent black shadows moto guzzi and a pile of euro trash

you dont have much choice its basically vtnz for re vin in wellington

have they tightened up the ruls regarding re vin long story short mate who is tow truck driver took a hq wagon in for re vin ( reg lapsed ) they wanted a body cert vtnz porirua( its bog standard) the repair cert guy then started putting inspection cameras up the pillars etc and said take out the rust on inside of the a pillar tow truck guy who also owns a hj ute said to me it looks real straight visually original paint etc

looks very similar to the hq holden if it is i got one that electrically its stuffed was full of water when i pulled it from the car but the body with the magnets is ok can go to workshop and take some pics

was intending to show up till the mrs got boiling soup all over her arm at work the tight wad boss didnt want her to head off to the doc ( whole hand was in big blisters) because they were short handed ,he relented when i turned up and suggested i call work safe

brian often doesnt answer the phone if hes busy

There is a contractor that steam cleans the import cars that don't pass he does it at main freight depot I believe

That's in the More information than I needed Was going to offer to help one evening have a towing dolly if needed

I got a few 3/4 ton come along/ lever blocks if you want to borrow them

I need to do the same with my corolla plus its way over due for a cam belt Was thinking might just replace the motor if I find a good one as mines done near 300k

That surprised me about howatt like you I have had a bit of work done by them and its always been of top standard

Would be interested in knowing who not to go to for a new drive shaft Need to fork out for a new one very soon

The 2k primer I use before putting on a guide coat has a gloss but I use super etch on bare steal I think my 2k is resene will check tomorrow
