Been away lots lately so no progress on the rubbers. Back in NZ next week so need to get them sorted. Fitted off the front quarter bumpers and had to do a few adjustments to the brackets to get them sitting right. Unfortunately the left front one has had a crappy repair before caroming so it’s off to the strippers for that and the rear bumper and Greg will get them mint before getting chrome plated again.

It’s fucked. Put it down to a bad experiance and move on. Either fix it properly so some some poor person doesn’t buy a chassi damaged POS or take it back to Pick a Part

Went and check out the rubber issue today and both front and rear screen rubbers don’t fit good and the rear quarter glass rubbers are average as well compared to the originals. Need to do some research to sort the best rubbers. Rear bumper I had rechromed has a couple of ripples in at as well so it’s off to get stripped and sort the ripples and chrome again argghh. It looked very straight when I dropped it off but the new chrome highlights any defects. The moulding fit off has paid off big time as quite a few of the mounting holes have had to be welded up and redrilled to get it bang on.

One would think so unless it was fitted with all standard running gear again. Bit of a minefield actually

I don't see why you think a supercharger is justified but a high rise tunnel ram wouldn't be. A huge blind spot isn't made any different by being a supercharger or just a set of buckets on a hood or a procharger scoop, etc. etc.
No issues with a tunnel ram. I’m talking about those big flower pot filters.

I kinda get where the bonnet height rules come from, you get these people running those stupid big flower pot air filters etc but if you running a blower setup with carbs and a standard height scoop it should be fine. It’s not like most of these setups are daily drivers

Comes up as statutory writeoff as one of the warnings. I just troll people that don’t mention it in the add.

As an aside with dodgy car sales, it’s amazing the number of written off HSV and SS late model Commodores that are being sold here after being fixed up. On FB fuck all people mention it and you only find out by car jamming the rego plate. Pretty important info when stat write off on the title wipes 20-30K off the value

I hope so. I feel sick inside for being such a dumb cunt by taking someone at their word...But that's how I've always been. Just got fucked over this time.
I wouldn’t beat yourself up too much about it. Most of have a story about being ripped off by some cunt grinfucking you. You are doing the right thing going to disputes and if doesn’t go completely your way at least you have given it your best shot.

Hopefully the summons to the disputes tribunal will all be too hard for him and he will get in touch and do a deal

was it owned by Andrew Turner before you? I think I certed it for him, it didn't have the scoop on then, and that was prior to the requirement for measuring the height and recording it
people get them legal then stack stuff back on top after the plate goes on, which is why we have to measure it and put it on the plate now
heres one in its (just) legal state, im pretty sure after the plate went on, it got its other taller carbs and scoop put back on
Yep I bought it off Andrew.
