510WGN Posted March 12, 2006 Posted March 12, 2006 Discuss - viewtopic.php?f=18&t=13627 Just a bit of a teaser for now, I fitted the Watanabes today and got a couple of photos. As soon as I can actually get into my inbox and upload the images then you'll see them here... Watch this space!! Quote
510WGN Posted March 13, 2006 Author Posted March 13, 2006 Ok here they are... And thanks to Mike, this is what it will SOON look like... Enjoy... Quote
510WGN Posted May 24, 2006 Author Posted May 24, 2006 Well bad news! The 240C has now been sold and the Watanabes will also be on the way out so I can FINALLY get stuck back in to the 1600 project! So if someone would like to buy these great rims and tyres then PM or email and we can chat Quote
Rusted Posted December 7, 2006 Posted December 7, 2006 Sold the Gloria and this is my new whale(Less those godly mags). Picked it up last night and I'm just in the process of repiar under the windscreen(Minor rust) replace the heater hose and fit some safety belts and with some luck it should be legal early next week.

Rusted Posted December 11, 2006 Posted December 11, 2006 Hmm... Little progress. Has a bad case of the blues(Blowing smoke). So I'm looking for a L28 or maybe new rings in the current engine. Dam that new law. FFS! Quote
Rusted Posted January 18, 2007 Posted January 18, 2007 Got it's WoF last friday! Yep yep. Choice cruiser with the three on the tree. Quote
Rusted Posted January 21, 2007 Posted January 21, 2007 2 metres of flat room when the seats are down, great for camping out. No major plans for the future, Panel and paint back in the Mustard, Hopefully source a bench seat. Out with the windscreen to patch the lower lip. Remove the rear bumper to get straighten up, Thats all. Completely stock standard. Quote
Rusted Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 More panel work done, nothing special. One step closer to painting before OS Nats. Was thinking of buying some cheap 14'' Cragars. Don't know. Wats look too good. Quote
Rusted Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 Direction of the project has changed a little. Worked out a deal for those Wats, and it will be getting the 2'' drop all around. Quote
Rusted Posted May 20, 2007 Posted May 20, 2007 Most of the chorme is off, in the process of Paneling, going in this weekend to be painted... In a fresh coat of mustard. LONG LIVE THE MUSTARD WHALE!!! Quote
Rusted Posted June 1, 2007 Posted June 1, 2007 Painted and in the process of re-assembly. It's SO Mustard! Quote
Rusted Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 Rollin on thee Wats now. Benchseat from a 330 sourced and it's hell not going in the 240C. It really uncomfortable. Should have a talk to the Upholsters and see what can be done the make the factory buckets into a Benchie. More rust repairs or due as it was left in the weather before it's paint job. Lowerage with the next 6 weeks. Most likely 3'' front, 2'' lower at the back. Quote
