  1. I like the idea of where that exhaust looks like it's heading
  2. Fark yeah thats cool! I'll have to look into that for mine too. It seems you can either spend lots of time or lots of money getting it painted. I know in my case I have time but no money haha
  3. fuck i'm useless. Completely forgot about this
  4. lols at how often people on here miss the 'y'
  5. I think when I did my escort I got a gasket from ENFORD
  6. ha, I guess we better eat our words. Looks like a pretty sweet meet!
  7. No worries, looking forward to seeing this thing one day. My brother is thinking about buying one at the moment too if he can get it cheap enough
  8. DON'T OVER TIGHTEN THE ROCKER COVER! Sorry to shout but its important. These old things have 4 screws holding the rocker cover on right? They don't need to be extremely tight, just enough to seal on the gasket. Otherwise the cover warps and it will never seal again. This had happened on my escort and made me mad because I couldn't get rid of the oil leak. not that you will ever get rid of all the leaks on an old ford, its how you know they are still running right
  9. My muzzy/anglia are at home in new plymouth so I have: AE92 FXGT - Oldskool but will prob be too lazy and not bother at all
  10. Grants car is coming along aye, chassis is almost fully welded now. we had it on wheels last week and have had the engine mounted. All the wishbones and suspension parts are away being powdercoated at the moment I think. I don't yet know how I will transport the tandem. I'll have a measure up to see if it will fit on my bike rack without the wheels on (although the guards will still stick out so there is possible no point in this) or I might have to make a roof rack for it. When its back in new plymouth will probably just leave it at louella's coz its in town and then we can just ride it from there to the pub and the beach and shit like that
  11. I couldn't get the paint to happen nicely on the mudguards but it looks ok from a couple of meters back. I just rode it to John Bull Cycles in town and picked up a brake and gear cable for it. Not a flash photo but you get the idea: EDIT: I also made a tensioner similar to what longbike has.
  12. haha I read this as "Hi, I have a big swaging machine that from memory is the pattern you see above..." Is Kia Ora a workshop?
  13. sounds good. Where is it?
  14. I would be happy to come and lend a hand/turn up with my multimeter and drink beer/watch crazy_rich/runamuck fix it
  15. Sweet as. Let us know if you have trouble getting hold of them (number might have changed etc) and I'll go in and get contact info for ya
  16. I asked a mate today, apparently cycle trading is still open its just moved. Its not between John Bull cycles and the South City shopping centre
  17. oh whole dash haha If it was just a fault finding problem i could have had a look to give you a hand but wiring a whole dash is a bit beyond me
  18. I've been meaning to go and check, I know it was fenced off for a little while and I could see from moorhouse ave that there was a pile of bricks either infront of it or next door to it. I got the handlebars and grips for Louella's bike from there and want to get more of those bars for my tandem. I'll let you know when I make it into town to check it out. I'm pretty sure acorn models (town side of ctc) is open so would depend on their own building I guess. Louella on xmas day when I gave her the bike (healing 10 speed):
