I think Fiat and Mitsubishi might have something to say about that. 

Yeah I remember my teacher buying an early 80s Corona,it was almost fucked 3yrs later, can't remember the model.

Nothing rusts better than a datsun.

x3 cars of interest in puke.

oh what is this one?

That last one is a 64 Fairlane compact by the looks of it.

The R series is the rarer model. The S series is way better looking though. You may get more for it advertised in Ozzy. But I'd agree with Cletus, somewhere between 20k and 30k for a nice original example.

Early 70's my brother and I scored a rather dilapidated 1952 Humber Pullman (Supersnipe) hearse. Didn't have the expertise or finance to rebuild it so had to let it go. Don't have a picture of the actual car but restored it would have looked like this. (Small-block Chev and Trident mages it would have made one hell of a cruiser!).

 

My father in law rolled one of them in the 70s and chopped the roof off it.

The Utes registered as a "Halo" ,didn't know that's what they were called.

I got charged for having headlights adjusted while having wof done. I asked them why didn't they check the switch that raises or drops the beams,it was a Nissan taken to a Nissan dealership for wof ffs....they said no worries,I had to make a point of asking them to fix the problem they caused,and re reset the level to where they were in the first place. No clue.

is it possible to 2K clear over enamel ?

If the clear is put on before the enamel is cured, otherwise it will need keying up and the scratches will be visible under the clear. You can usually get a nice gloss off the gun so shouldn't need clear.

Are they an eh or ek Holden? It's the only shape Holden I like. Parents had two station wagons. I think the other is a 315,bit short in the front to be a z car,I couldn't see the badging.

Edit...I don't know Holden's,def not an eh. Best looking old Holden I reckon though.

Kids junior prom night.

If it's there it has to work. I've pulled a window out cause wof guy moaned it didn't go down. Got the wof when I went back. 

If your backing plates have provision for ABS sensors it's a GU diff.

Ask member "yendor" on the patrol4x4.com website in oz,he knows everything about these things. Can you just convert it to manual locking hubs?

Was just asking as I sold a green 4 door back in the early 90s with a.pinto in it.

The Cortina you had wasn't a green 4 door with a black stripes over the boot was it?

Fuck that sheep looks maaasssive.

I think maybe a month or so.

Beach driving not that hard just got to check tides

Sandstone hill looks like north end of karetahi 

Yeah,south end of Hamilton's gap,before mussle rock if going south of the gap. Maybe a few kms nort of karioitahi beach. The sand up hi at mid tide is nasty soft,as the tide gets lower there's heaps of room to drive,he fucked up,mid tide by the looks.

Yeah Jessie,about a km down from Hamilton's gap.

Ky,nothing that bogged down and that far from the road is getting recovered. He would have driven round a few points to get that far down the coast,most likely hunting for mussles I'd say,there were tool boxes hidden up at the hi tide line so it was loaded and heavy.

Yowzer...ain't that so true lol.

This is at a local beach ,I have another of it smashed to bits but can't convert it to the right file on my phone..... What a waste.

Kiwi steel in wiri sell a 2400x1800 sheet of 1mm cold rolled for around $80 delivered in Auckland .

I'd go for equipment enamel for them.
