sorry i'm useless. updated now

yep, meet at the peg or dawber farm @8.30am saturday?

I’m gonna leave you a plastic pallet tomorrow to put that spare ld on..

The lack of organisation/ understanding of how large events work that will either make it a ghost town or attract all the scumbags, especially since the dude probably hasn’t got public liability insurance if anything goes tits up. I’m gonna avoid it tbh

Oh hey. Some stuff happened today...

Was great to meet you @EpochNZ sorry i didnt have any booze. That slacker @Carsnz123 never left any for us!

Canadian club plz. Blue diesel will cause removal of engine and a worn out one installed instead

thats tomorrows job... after @JustHarry, @76rolla_gurl and myself finish it off tonight

Update time, took this to hanmer at the begining of the month. all was going well until on the way back... pulled off the road to adjust one of the kids seatbelts. went to pull away and had no gear selection. turns out the box was jammed in 5th and had snapped a selector fork.... fuck... managed to drive it back from just outside of Hanmer to Christchurch in 5th, there were a few dicey moments like the big hill out of waikari and the turn back onto sh1 but made it back. fast forward to the weekend just gone and its fix it time, man i need a hoist for myself. it made the job a hundred times easier. because of the lack of good gearboxes in stock we converted the car from short case r30 gearbox to long case box out of a 280zx. that did unfortunately mean loosing the bench seat thanks to @JustHarry the total GC for sorting the use of the hoist helping to get her done

It was posted on bookface. I have updated the main thread on here now

A pinto is for life, not just for christmas

I have a bunch of brake parts to install first and a passengers side headlight assembly to fix

thanks to all that came along and an extra thanks to @chasinthemirage for bringing me some petrol after i ran out on QEII drive

does the 5 speed EN box fit the EB motor? I am possibly picking up a parts car on the weekend (EB)

I might be able to make it down for a wee bit on Thursday night

all of the wrecks for my hoard

wof is legit / only a small amount of "homework" to be done, The Pulsar will smoke it a few tidy up bits still to be done, but essentially yep its ready
