Deets? Hot wired fuel pump and no diff.

Thanks - I did have it this way as it happens. These wires were cut up by the alternator, but I'm guessing they aren't needed for it to run at least. (Think they are for oil pressure switch) New engine is an S1 (based on google) as it has the square coil packs. One I removed was an S2 with round coils. Sparks are present though. Any other ideas?

@tortron Do you happen to know the correct orientation for the 3 plugs on the back of a VN instrument cluster? Having trouble getting this heap to run again after the swap, and I didn't note the correct setup. Cranks with fuel pump running and at least some sparks, but won't fire.

Done yet?

WTFari

Hopefully has a vin assigned in LANDATA. This is probably 'the system' the seller means. I'd talk to a repair certified before doing anything else.

Hey, thanks - I needed some bad advice at the time. Rust bucket owners unite!

This is the not so good side. Door hinges pulled out of the A-pillar. Rough plan is to fix the drivers door pillar and at least some of the sill structure. Then do the passenger side the same. Then, um, everything else?

This is the good side. Hinges are still attached.

I did slap a beach hop sticker on it for inspiration.

Well, I've had this thing for a bit over a year now. It's a 1951 Ford Country Squire. It came on TM, being sold by the importer. Apparently it had been parked in a field in Pennsylvania for some time. It got no bids on TM but was offered for a fairly cheap fixed price. After chatting to the seller and getting some bad advice on here I bought it. AT that point it was in Blenheim. The seller shifted to a some sort of skid at Strait Shipping, then I had it collected from there and delivered. It's in pretty sad shape. The old wood is missing, it is rusty, and god knows when the flathead last ran. Rust flagged at the border unsurprisingly.

Spoke to the horse's mouth

Got an ETA in mind?

We had one of those too. I even bothered to download an emulator and try it out a few years back. https://www.classic-computers.org.nz/system-80/hardware_eaca-colour-genie.htm

You should try the Alien TC mod, IIRC that was remarkable.

Is that a chunk of sanding disc?

See, that's what I get for winging it

Ride height is plus or minus 15% IIRC Had to do some careful looking to find the seat rule /who'd be a WOF man eh?

Temporary seat removal? BTW, my plate is 4562KK - spooky!

Looks like there's a centre support on the end of the axle to hold it stable. Someone buy me this for xmas please https://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=2426121633

IDSPISPOPD it should be. Was an in-joke of some Usenet thing IIRC. https://doom.fandom.com/wiki/SPISPOPD

Reminds me of SPISPOPD Did I get that right?

Same same.
