    Crazy as it is while buying parts I met a cool guy who has a PC cresta diff that he wants gone, he wanted $200 for it, any idea if that's good? Such a small world sometimes

    Also was yours short or long wheelbase? Pretty sure mine is long

    Where would you find another one? PC Cresta's are gone.

    I always did get a reminder but hadn't had any for a while. I tried to check on what the cars statis was. You have to fill in the online form, but it rejects my driver's license number which has always been ok before. I have contacted them about it, but they failed to give me a reason why. I have asked again.

    If you go to this page you can check any plate without drivers license etc

    Check expiry query (nzta.govt.nz)

    e.g. for that Trike

  4. Tell me about

    - how you/brother/dad/uncle/cousin/mate used to have one

    Never had an HQ but did have an HJ(?) Wagoon

    - why my mrs is now tougher and cooler than me

    Always was

    - why big Australian cars with a mix of metric and imperial fasteners are better than silly little European ones that only use metric ( i had to dig out my very limited and mismatched Imperial sockets and wrenches that had been banished to the back of  bottom draw of the tool box and put them right in the top bit :( )

    Hey, at least they don't have BSW

    - where to get new parts easily/cheaply/locally

    Um, BNT?

    - why the second hand stuff on FBMP is outrageously priced and clearly owned by meth head bogans and how to avoid them 

    Maybe try Invercargill area?

    - tips and tricks for hotting up your  173 using OEM + parts (commie inlet and exhaust manifolds? - the single stromberg and right angled log exhaust manifold offends me!))

    I've got a couple of twin carb setups but never fitted them

    - can you bolt a 202 to the Torana 4 speed?

    Should be fine, I think the red motors are all the same

    - where to find a nice 202.

    In a rusty Landrover or CF Bedford

    - why do i even want a 202 (re-rego mainly), the 173 is probably perfectly fine, KPie doesnt really care (unless its a v8), and it wont be the engine from the Torana any more, 

    You don't

    - where the fuck is the fill port for the CNG system on this car? (its not behind the number plate with the petrol filler) 

    I dunno, but I made a brazier out of a CNG tank many years ago and it hasn't rusted away yet. Those things are stout.
