  1. Meeeean this is rad. You actually did the thing we all say we would do when we spot a somewhat saveable wreck. If you are still looking for a shotgun I'm still looking for a ride up to nats from Welly.
  2. If anyone is cruising through wellington wednesday night/leaving welly early thurs morning I'd be keen to jump in. If nah I'll get to vinegar hill somehow wednesday night and jump in with someone there.
  3. Anyone go inside and see the dude playing the organ? was pretty rad. He invited people up so I played some guns and roses to a rapturous crowd of 20 or so.
  4. Pained me that I couldn't grab this...nothing makes me want to give up inner city lyfe living and buy a patch of gravel in Kawerau like these sorts of deals popping up. I'll have made it when its just me and my deckchair and a pack of diesels watching my cars rust into the ground. Car looks meeeen. Hustlers definitely not my thing but rugged as. And of course semi hemi yo. Bet you been telling everyone you've got a hemi. Funny how the Australians feel about valiants with the whole wog chariot carry-on, bottom of the pile for some reason, when really they're the closest thing to 'american muscle' I'll ever be able to afford.
  5. Hi team, sick of my wagon just getting rusty in the backyard, Going to take it into a garage and pay the cash to get it sorted, needs contacts gapped properly, timing checked and condensor checked/prob replaced as well. Just thought I'd check here if someone wants to swing by Saturday morning have a bash in exchange for a bottle of bourbs or cash equivalent. In Aro Valley.

  7. Did the maths and got 14L / 100k...That sound right for a standard Hemi 245? Mr Mk1? Bart? Also made me happy having the anglia in my rear vision mirror all the way to culverden, sorry I didn't stop for the 121 on the side of the road but I don't think I had enough gas to get back up to highway speeds at that point. Felixx - straight up manliest man since Willie Apiata.
  8. yo are dorms like 2 person, 9 person, 100 person? if snore-risk is approaching 100% I will stick to a frozen tent.
  9. Replacing the condensor worked for me when I had the same problem with my 2k. Also check inside the dizzy for a broken set contact - Easy to miss and they do go ping given its just a thin bit of metal being bent backward and forth for 35 years.
  10. I would be so game to biscuit behind the ferry. Surely I could last 3 hours without getting hypothermia. If no-ones got a boot I'll give you a rope and you can chuck it to me before you cast off.
  11. Yo to Wellington peeps going to Picton on Fri/Saturday...I've got this thing in Picton I should go to...but I don't want to pay. SO if anyone has a boot I can go in just to get on the boat I'll give you 4 tall woodstocks. Worse that can happen is they find me and kick me off.
  12. never have I wanted to Ctrl+Z so hard in real life than when that doomish crack comes and says g'day.
  13. pretty dam cool, this was mine that I swapped for the starlet. super stiff rear, rock hard tyres and no weight over the back so essentially drift-triking levels of control with even just a hint of damp. Garth on the datsun forum had a dually rear end for a while - A dually datsun would win hard.
  14. Salvation Army Employment Plus in Wellington do a Class 2 licence course, free if you are on the benefit but you have to be referred by WINZ. Might be worth calling to see if something similar is in ChCh but if you are currently employed this won't be much help.
  15. Ever since nats all of sudden it seems every car I have owned has some sort of oldschool.co.nz connection, this was my car around May last year in Christchurch. I'm not responsible for the green housepaint. Didn't have keys, started by touching wires together. The back doors wouldn't open, and when they did, would be when the car was travelling at speed. Thought I was pretty lucky to get $800 for it. Was good for a laugh for a few weeks.
  16. I'm pretty new to all this but if its ok...keen to come friday just past 12 as well. Just moved to Wellington and don't really know any car people so I might swing by and say G'day. Always up for garage sales.
  17. You can add mine to the count, I'm also loving that you are sticking with the brown. Factory colours win.
