  1. i would recommend Tim at TTT auto , he does nice work
  2. you could remove it, the main problem would be replacing the strength/stiffness in the floor that you will lose by cutting that part out Mounting the seat would be another issue, there are different ways of doing that depending on what you do with that box section
  3. why do you do a mold of both sides? is that so you can make a part that matches the original more closely? great write up
  4. did it still have the old fibre gear when it stripped it?
  5. This. tig loves the gas compared to a mig nice work , those mounts look great.
  6. kingstars will try to kill you at the slightest hint of any moisture near the roads surface
  7. For motorsickles, i would contact Alex Gee, he specialises in 2 wheeled devices and is out west Or Neil Fraser does bikes as well http://lvvta.org.nz/documents/suplementary_information/CertifierList-Website.pdf
  8. what sort of falcon 6? could you adapt a multirib belt drive instead? for some reason, all the tossed or shredded belts ive ever seen at the drags have been "gilmer" type belts
  9. ha. now i know why i had to trim down the earth pin on my welder when i got it a few years ago didnt know there was a different plug
  10. stupid rusty door cut out all that cut bit out of rusty-in-different-places door off green one, have to just quickly weld a couple of patches into the patch before i weld in the patch I DISLIKE PANEL WORK IMMENSELY.
  11. tailgate pooed up, looked like a bag of walnuts to start with. still not perfect, fine for no shine black though.......

  13. http:// fixed more little bits of rust, drivers door and guard on for good, both front guards and bonnet painted underneath, inside floor painted, new guts friendly steering wheel. trying to find a passenger door or ill have to do some major surgery on the one i have
  14. no, they dont need cert. have a look under the carpet, a lot of cars have the threaded holes already there just with no clip
  15. Dear Vintagegrumble, If your Motorcar meets the Requirements of the Low Volume Vehicle Standard, linked Here; http://lvvta.org.nz/documents/standards/LVVTA_STD_Frontal_Impact.pdf Relevant information located at section 2.3 A Certification plate surely is able to be Obtained and Affixed to the aforementioned Vehicle.

  16. http://www.trademe.c...px?id=545420631http://lvvta.org.nz/documents/suplementary_information/LVVTA_LVV_Cert_Threshold.pdf i would say yes, due to geometry change, plus they are not listed on the modification threshhold
  17. haha. id be more worried about being able to walk still.
  18. has to pass 5x 100-0 kph stops under 4.4 sec each time, total of 3 minutes to do the test driveshaft loop What sort of V8? another rover?
  19. its up to the individual certifier how much this costs doesnt have to be done by the same certifier. it often turns into a cockup because the car is mysteriously lower than when it was certed or there are more mods than the owner lets on and needs re certing anyway
  20. that would be sweet, just make sure its mounted well a lot of ones i see are held in with self tappers or rivets
  21. this place has many handy things https://www.mountshop.co.nz/Default.asp
