Tried a few different NZ addresses, no go. Have sent an enquiry. It's a nice to have, not an essential.

Oh OK, looked at the cart, it says this.
They seem to be available though as if I enter a USA address they all look good, just don't like NZ destinations. I might try again in a few weeks/months.

Just don't get your hopes up too high on them being available.
Any idea what this means, not available, or just don't like New Zealand?

Not if they put RUC on petrol too. Which would make driving a car pretty unaffordable for a large chunk of people. If anything I think diesels would become more popular. Cheaper than petrol without the limitations of your typical budget EV.
If the RUC applied to petrol vehicles, then there would be a drop in the $/l petrol tax.

How large is it @Nominal? Like your old lathe size or myford size?
Bigger rather than smaller.
I was going to plug it in and test it, but...

Amayama pro question
I'm looking for some tail light parts for the truck, and not sure I'm getting the right piece. I'd like a RH light/lens assembly, and maybe the wiring assemblies for each side.
Any pointers / ways to cross check?
I've already got a repro LHS (Depo 08-212-1964L-B)
Following the chassis number leads me here, but they don't look quite right in the drawing

Surely getting a lot more publicity than a clean run.

Great name for a town.

The pre-1990 set is more manageable but still has a lot of cruft in it

On with wood again. This area of damage was due to the stainless trim attached to the window surround rubbing on the lower door piece, so I'll have to be more careful about how it goes together.
Stripped the lower door frames down and heat-gunned the varnish off. Quicker and easier this time.
Repaired a couple of small bits with some clear epoxy hardener. Didn't realise it wasn't cold-tolerant so I had to burn some diesel to keep it warm.Then yet another sanding and bleaching session.
And some more epoxy sealer.
I've actually cleaned up this corner of the shed somewhat. Hmm, might need more kondo-ing

Back in the varnish mines.
Also found this potato photo I took at the 2011 (I think) Beach Hop. Never thought it would be in our ownership
