Damn I keep missing such things.

@Raizer keen as - I'll have to sort my way over the bridge somehow, is that the 13th of April?

I'm legit tempted to move my MK1 and get a suitable van.

I used to sell vacs for a living, stay away from bagless shit imo. Filters constantly need to be cleaned and replaced its a ball ache.

For garage spec shit, Henrys and Tellus are the way to go. Always with bags, don't listen if they say you can just clean the filter.

For home spec Mieles are good, and I can't fault my Wertheim 5030 I've had for forever those powerheads rule. Saubers are the tits if you wanna go mental, and you're not rough with them.

HNNNNNNNNG.

This god damn thing eh. 11/10. 

I legit get excited every-time this thing is updated.

I wish I had one tenth of your skill dude, keep killing it as this may be one of the best trucks on NZ roads once its done.

Ah jealous, this thing fuckn rules. I think mine will stay stock as a rock for a while/ever

I rescued a yellow one of these from a scrap yard about a year ago. You get any spares with it? or nuffink? I was just gonna improvise for all the missing bits. Who needs a seat when you can strap a tassled cushion to the fuel tank?

Nah sorry mate, no spares at all. They are rather hard to come by. How bad of a state is yours in? You can buy almost all the parts from ebay/webike

My rego tags legit say "Honda Chelli" haha. 

Been taking it out for many runs. Did C&C with the Moped lads @GuyWithAviators and @Shakotom etc.

Hell yeah, fuck I love Crown wags. Used to use one exactly like this to dort around a kiwifruit farm as a child.

Got there in the end. Whipped the carb out, cleaned that all up etc.

Turns out it was the spark leads angle causing weak spark when it was plugged in, and normal spark when I'd test it against the back of the block..

Runs sweet again haha

Took the gas tank out and cleared out the rubble last night. Won't start for shit now, even though its getting fuel and spark.

Kicked it for like 20 mins, probably flooded it.

Will have another go tonight, may have to remove the carb?

You order the disc break front for the Chaly? That's super rad dude, hopefully mine will be of a similar standard shortly.

If you wanna part with your front forks let me know, my shits bent. 

I came into possession of one of these yesterday also, neat little things.

Yours looks much cooler than mine haha. 

Keen to see how you do things though, you can order shorter front shocks off webike for like $50 USD. If you do I could be keen on the OG ones if you're parting with them as mine are bent. 

Tested out my Rolleiflex - needed to see if it's working before I spend money CLA'ing it. Kinda worked. I think the focus might be a little off.

Bonus cat;

Keen to get back involved in this thread. What's the thing now? Have we concurred the bridge?

Good Meet indeed, and thanks all for the positive feedback!  Great photos too everyone. Ok to steal (with credit) photos for threads?

I don't mind at all, go for it.

I believe the cops spotted Sheepers and asked where he was off too, then asked if there would be any Escorts and decided to tag along haha.
