  1. I used to make my AA membership worthwhle by getting a million maps all the time. once I'd got to where I needed to go they'd be binned. hah!
  2. I'm a derp so notes and navman is where it's at for me. Best thing ever for an old car is well hidden usb port for gps and phone chargings purposes hah
  3. fuckin' hell Sam, you're a legend. Firm handshake with both hands at nats bud. nothing like nats to bring you out of the woodwork! I'm already excited to see what you do next year if the last two years quick small ford fix 'n rolls are anything to go by!!
  4. For all the non-tour of love peoples. What's the plans for heading north on Thursday? I'll be heading out of Feilding around 10am at this stage. Prolly scoot up through the not so direct route via Paeroa to take a picture of my french car next to a fizzy bottle and drink Alan Pee.
  5. swap rx7 for citroen at nats eh? I like
  6. shit yeah love it. glad I'm no thte only one that saw ya new loo and thought 'phwoar I'd just love to spend twenty minutes destroying that thing out in the serenity' I can't hurt field mice either. too delicate.
  7. chooch it so excite this thing goes blardy good, I can attest to it's prowess.
  8. I'm hoping to go back past there in a couple of weeks. Sparkle needs to swap his 620 body onto a 720 chassis tbh so this could be the go
  9. nice nice. thought of you when I drove past a 720 parked in a paddock today. will go in next time I'm driving past. Looked pretty buggered, though (front valance etc)
  10. noobz for real. as a general rule I would say vtnz people are 9 times out of 10, super low in knowledge. can work for or against you!
  11. briax sealwell. i think you can get it from bnt and repco. horrid shit. blocks things up. but patches little holes in radiators all good. hah my gravel bashed has a lower mount peg cracked and used to drop about a litre an hour with zero pressure on it. half a sealwell cube and i'm yet to top it up since. it clogs the radiator a little though
  12. should be able to do it. when one of my minis dropped an idler gear bearing back in the day it was really low on oil pressure too. I suppose there's a gallery there somewhere or something. hopefully it's not bad enough to have knackered your gearbox housing and stuff upgrade to straight cut idlers? the reason they shit the bed is the helical cut makes them try and turn on the housing
  13. most people don't run shocks on duratorque suspension. if they're not hosing oil out and still seem to have some damping ability then they'll be totally fine have towed the sisters single axle on duratorque suspension caravan. I found that most of the bounce can be cancelled out by running the tyres at a decent pressure - if they're a bit soft it seems to amplify any bouncing tenfold
  14. shit yeah i've never gone to burgermeat without legal car
  15. this is a resto of epic proportions! keep the updates coming
  16. plates aren't a wof issue. ideally you could turn up with no number plates and they can't fail you
  17. shit yeah there's a million people. wonder what the cause of that is?
