Double the heat!

What you need is an ld28 with a 100a alternator on a run stand.

Pick picky, how about this one AutoSpeed - Dirt Cheap DIY Battery Charger

Knock up a couple of trickle chargers from plug packs? AutoSpeed - Zero Cost Trickle Charger Don't buy a small CTek charger and expect it to work on a car battery. It won't.

axl /spam As for the question, it shouldn't matter from a braking function point of view, so whatever is convenient for the plumbing/bleeding would do.

Keen.

Took the working one away to Ohakune. Went well even after the frost so took a spin up to Whakapapa. Annoyingly left the petrol cap at National Park g.a.s and it wasn't there when I went back 90 minutes later so who knows what happened to it. Managed to find a substitute at Horopito Motors after sneaking entry on a Sunday when they were sort-of closed.

Another month already? Hot Rod club came for a visit so pulled some wood out to make it look like I've been making progress After getting some more steel I made a start on the bottom of the B-pillar

Make sure you follow the correct process though Engine Myth: Urinating on Cylinder Block Improves Durability - EngineLabs

Well, you certainly beat it up. Good job!

That's a weird kink.

Hope you and Hannah and going to mod some cycle helmets to reproduce that look.

It's a shit situation, hard to believe the seller didn't know the engine was in a sad state. Maybe return it and then go to disputes tribunal for the shipping $?

Hey, at least you are getting plenty of practice at engine removal.

You could get a cert/wof set and a different "off-road' set and swap them around.

Are you going to be like this guy and telling bystanders that "it's not my car"

Floors look good Elle, will make it easier to work on the house part now. I saw you laminated beam parts cut out at the friend of a friends place in the weekend, should look nice when assembled.

Yeah, but none for @SOHC's letter either.

Shouldn't you be following that other classic rear engined flat 6-cylinder approach and have six pipes out the back?

Not on my behalf, I'm mostly wfh still and have already been to town one day this week.

Any plans @Mourning Cupcake? Seems like Jville weather.

Sprayed some durepox on the cleaned up bits Pulled a window winder out of the molasses tank and cleaned it up. Might take it up to the electroplaters and see how it goes as an assembly. Started picking away at the rust again tonight. Also fixed the headlights on the other one. High beam light was always on, and lights were dim too. WOF man said last time to sort it out so finally had a look. Don't really drive at night anyway. Turned out that the PO has some Hella H4 lights fitted but whoever did the job (I don't think it was him) didn't know that you need to swamp the ground and low beam wires in the plug for the new lights. So basically there was mess where both filaments were always on in various combinations. Works mint now though (even the high beam light) and new WOF acquired.

I wonder what happened to this one that used to be out Marshland Rd\

I'll be down in Brightwater next weekend, bring home a small truck....
