Got a gn250, had a bent frame. Was run over by a hilux. Rego alive, put another frame in it. Can I get the papers changed? Or is a cert job. Have the old plate from the donor bike.

Was wondering if I could weld the Plymouth to it....or a triumph. .

If we go to the wheatsheaf, I might bring something special. ?.......

Missed out on the escort. Bugger. Was up riwaka valley on the side of the road, too slow getting to it. Oh well, beer time.

Will find out tomorrow if it's still there. Was on Wednesday. 1.1 auto with vinyl roof.

Might be buying a car in Nelson tomorrow. Someone want to drive it from Nelson/riwaka to hanmer? Then someone else back to chch? Beers/fuel will be supplied. Barn find escort. Has reg and wof.

Got family visiting tomorrow. Will try and meet at little River.

got a king tank off a sporty somewhere in the shed if you want it...

anyone else riding up? cortinas not legal at the moment, will bring the bonneville instead.

Have seen a motorcycle front master Cylinder used as a foot brake. Works quite well.

Use an electric scooter as a donor. Cheap as with battery's faffed. Weld a sprocket to the rear wheel of the scooter wheel then mount it like a jack shaft. Will give you brakes as well.

Got a mate who works on old flash stuff. Will do cashies.top notch stuff. Maseraties and things...

remove the main jet for methanol. seen it work on bears bikes... more methanol means cooler running means higher compression means more power.

Keen. Cortina is still going.

took this to the nats, had lots of fun. pic dump from other threads on here. one of my favorite shots.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUMSX4ITEqA went in the grasskahana, somehow got the fastest time? lots of fun.. done over 1000 miles in this thing in the last month. pretty happy so far...

No pm with numbers here either. ..

sounds good to me, will have the cortina legal by then.

fuel tank was poos, full of holes. so i degassed it on the holden. now all fixed, soldered up and back in. have replaced front calipers, pads and rear brake shoes. fixed punctures, changed ball joints for good ones. re adjusted hand brake,sorted gearbox linkages with rubber fuel hose bushes. removed and flushed heater, got heater fan going. made some lowering blocks, fitted gas shocks to the rear. lowered front springs and re set the cut bit. made an exhaust out of bits lying around. replaced universal joint at the rear before it fell out. bonnet bolted back on, doors lined up. the list is getting shorter by the day...
