SCHWWWWWWWWWWWEEEEEEEEEET! Do it!

Success, she is all wof'd again. Flew through no worries. Only thing he said I might need to look at was a patch of bog that looks a bit poos. Just told me to rebog it or weld a patch in before it gets picked up during a wof. Stink thing of the day was I went to the supermarket after wof to get some groceries and the inside drivers door handle snapped as I opened the door. Gutted. Lucky got wof first though. Now to decide what to do next.. Feel free to give some suggestions in discussion thread. //oldschool.co.nz/index.php?/topic/36619-daves-prince-b200/

hey man cheers for that. slowly tidying little bits up. yep shanes a mate of mine, was suppose to pick him up for the jap meet but i never made it myself.

Discuss: //oldschool.co.nz/index.php?/topic/36619-daves-prince-b200/ Alright, so have not really done much to the car lately except picked up some stainless wheel trims and painted the steelies black and attached a few missing bits of chrome. Whole car has a chrome on black thing going on which I think looks pretty good. Fixed the gasket between the carb and the manifold as it was not sealing properly and giving a different idle every time i stopped. Breather hose on the gas tank decided to vannish, had a quick check under the bonnet and was nothing so figured the gas smell was from carrying a mower in the boot not long before. After a fumey drive to helensville I popped the boot to find a shit load of fuel. Was an easy fix though. Had it all ready for the old school meet but a hang over got the better of me so never made it. Might have to head down to the next burgerfuel meet up as am moving to kingsland 1st of feb so it wont be such a cunty drive from south head. Next plan is to pass this saturdays wof, flew through the last two so am hopeful. Anyway heres a couple of pictures, nothing too special.

Well saturday morning was a fail for me, had a big friday night and a wicked hang over. didnt really get out of bed till 1 lol

sounds good man!!

alright i certainly can live with that (have to drive) lucky i took prince out to make sure it still goes, went to helensville, could smell the sweet smell of petrol the whole way and thought it was from carrying a mower a while ago. popped boot, full of fuel. yay... lucky was just the top breather hose on tank somehow got shorter??? anyway, empty codys can and insulation tape and shes as good as new

does anyone else on OS have a road legal prince or is mine the only one?

i say get it going brakes working etc, slam it and chuck some other cars plates on it. win win.

cheers for that, time to derust and paint my steelies i think. sent them an email about the wheel bands. yea been browsing trademe hard out for hub caps, have found a few but none of them seem to fit. im after the hubcap, bit of steelie showing then wheel band look.

alright thanks for that, fender mirrors sorted now where do you guys get your chrome wheel trims from? and vintage style hubcaps?

i am bringing my 4 burner but aint cooking on it lol perted the car, will rub off tomorrow. another plus side is instead of my car smelling like a cross between wet dog, toes and poon it now smells like shampoo.. lovely

all sorted, my supermarket stocked it. was only 5 bucks or so. i just smear it on straight then wipe once dry right?

mean, got to get some groceries tonight so will keep a look out. never heard of the brand pert before though but hope my supermarket sells it.

so if i rub that on my windows i'll be all good? wont it be smearing as?

noooooooooooooooooo i cant do showers car fogs up real bad and have to keep wiping window with a rag to see and with no mirrors makes lane changing ultra gay since cant see shit. also get a wet brake pedal edit: nevermind will have other people in car to wipe different window spots so i can see, all is good!

Is my 4 burner services still needed? Not too keen to cook though. I like the idea of bar

Anyone got a BBQ I can sling on my uterus? Mine is wasted... (BBQ that is) I can fit 4 burner bbq in boot of prince, will require legs to be reassembled but its only 4 or so wing nuts. You the chef of the day?

i like the look of the first ones, what does convex glass do to the mirror though? would the be suiteable for guard mount? convex more field of view i am thinking?

who sells vintage style fender mirriors? looking for a place in the auckland area before i buy some online.

Ya ya ya.

Keen^^ I'll be there, 9am westgate sounds sweet for convoy meetup.

will be heading in from helensville ways in my matt black prince gloria, removed front springs and flipped the rears. looks bad ass.

Well the prince seems to be running perfectly as of lately as has not had a single break down in about 3 tanks of gas (which is a first) Plans for tonight are to flip the leafs in the back and if that doesnt lower it enough will relocate the leaf spring mount to the underside of the diff. Heres a couple of extra pictures. Sorry for the poo-tastic quality as I only have a cellphone to take them.

Hey guys been browsing this forum for a while now but only just took a picture of my car so I can throw up a project thread. Cars a matt black 1966 Prince B200 with a 3.3L engine and 3spd column change with overdrive. Goes well for what it is, gets the death sways at about 90+ mph though. Was browsing trademe one day last year for something old a different and this popped up. Got the owner to send my heaps of pictures cause it was in taupo, caught the bus down that weekend and drove it back up. costed 2400 which i thought was a score for something with wof/reg/cert. bonus points as has a cb/pa system too. since getting it home its proven itself to be rather unreliable with every outing usually leading to something interesting and most likely annoying happening. I had to fix fuel lines and fit new filters as the glass bowl ones were sucking a bit of air in and causing car to die when put under load, rebuild carb, the whole ignition side of it rather arse so redid all that and since last nights drive its developed a nice sticky accelerator which i may need to sort soon. rust wise it has nothing wrong with it as far as i can tell. the last guy did a crap job prepping before painting it so needs some loving. Car has stock rear suspension with cut springs in front, about 80mm from sump to ground. may need to do something about that. Plans are original hubcaps/hubcaps that look the part there and some whitewalls. will need to lower the rear at some point, rake looks cool though. Was going to repower with a holden 308 but those plans have fallen through. More pictures to come.
