Could be interested in the motor. Don't need the box though . Any idea how much he would be looking for ?

Another boring update. Have now got the chassis I'm going to run stripped of its cab and junk. Haven't decided if I'll rebuild the front end with all the new suspension bits I have before I put my cab on it or not.
So it looks like the 2l I have in it is siezed. Have had some deisel sitting in the bores hoping it will free itself but it isn't looking promising so I may throw the 1600 motor in till I have decided what I'm going to do engine wise. I'm about to start another round of renovations so this will probabaly sit on the back burner for a while again.
If anyone needa any parts let me know

Found some time to actually work on this today. Have been juggling work/life/enjoyment/house renovation time as of late. Not really sure what category working on it comes under, maybe I should have included a frustration category.
So this thing has its ignition switch and headlight wiring hacked to bits. Every wiring diagram I have doesn't match my ute so figured I would just steal the loom from the parts ute. With how little the loom contains it shouldn't take long to swap it into the proper ute. The loom from the parts ute looks to have a few gremlins hiding in it too. Possibly due to rats.should be a straight forward fix.
I took the motor and gear box out of the parts ute getting ready to clean the chassis up and swap my body onto the normal chassis and do away with the c notch.
Have made a bit of progress on the wellside also. A friend has a sheet of zintec? At his shop for me and when I have time I'm gonna head into his work and start to cut out what I need and do some folds in preparation for welding into welside.
Here's a couple lame photos but who doesn't like photos

Well not a lot to report on this. I did pick up a parts car. Going to run the standard chassis and flick the c notch.

How hard are these to convert to rotary? I know there is the REPU but I seem to remember some sharn about it not being as straight forward as you would think for RHD?
Bagged, C’notched and rotary was always the plan for mine. Still is.
Want to swap a standard chassis for a notched one?

Just picked up this old girl off a mate of mine who had owned it for about 12 years. It's going to be a hell of a lot of work to get it legal ago.
He built it as a bit of a skid hack and not alot else. Has a 2l in with with a bit of head work and a cam in it with a 5 speed box.
Has been c notched which I'm not sire of i will continue down that route or hunt down a factory chassis .
I've got the grill and head light surrounds to throw back on which should make it looks a bit tidier
Anyway on to the pics

Any gcs on here in blenheim possibly able to have a look at a vehicle for me ?
Payment can be in liquid or money form

I live in that area. What you need

Ugly or just not preferable to the 12a? When your spending 20 plus on a car ya really want it to tick a few boxes. Non rotary. Worst front and rear. Not alot of strong points

I think you just use one of the 2nd gen ball joints. Pretty sure original marks stayed on. I may have detailed it in one of my build threads. Been a long time now
Edit. Nope didnt record details.fuck my old thread of my b1600 is garbage

You still running left hand thread on the left side? When I put discs on the front of mine I used the opportunity to take the studs out of the old drum being replaced and put them on the rear to have normal threads all round

Spotted a kp61 which appeared to be on a 4x4 chassis outside the cookie time factory today. No pics because who wants to see a 4x4 starlet.....
