azzurro Posted December 5, 2016 Report Share Posted December 5, 2016 Good luck! Need to put bonnet on to maintain secret sleeper identity. With the bonnet off everyone can see what a hot rod it is with your massive air filter and all 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoeddynz Posted December 5, 2016 Report Share Posted December 5, 2016 What type of dizzy cap do you need? The early Delco style? I think so? Its the type that's held down with two little spring clips (Oh that just includes almost every bloody dizzy cap out there ever...) . They dont seem to sit perfectly flat ie doesnt locate as well as the good old D25 type dizzy cap. I'll get a photo...  Good luck! Need to put bonnet on to maintain secret sleeper identity. With the bonnet off everyone can see what a hot rod it is with your massive air filter and all This is true! Only just last night on my trip to the beach I had not one but two Tiidas and one Demio trying to take me on for a race..  Surely the coke bottle styling the and fantastic wheels will win over the WOF tester? Yes! That's the plan. He is a classic fan and dailies a El Camino He loves my other Viva so I shall win his heart again with the Viva style. Who can resist the Vauxhall Viva...  Yeah wrong car I know.. but I couldnt find an HB advert!? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyteler Posted December 5, 2016 Report Share Posted December 5, 2016 Fairly confident you'll either pass or the fail will be something essentially inconsequential that you'll be able to sort almost immediately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoeddynz Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Well I made it to the wof. It's in good hands... I have learned to ignore the temp gauge.. it tells lies. Maybe wrong sender for the cluster I'm using that's the old one from Viva one. The fuel gauge ain't working. The alternator light randomly comes on. The speedo cable has now snapped at the other end ! But I made it and now I eat pies while I wait for the result. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzvohc Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Congrats on getting legal beagle, it's a great feeling after a long haul! Pics look great. I think you should try and pick up an old surfboard to mount on the roof, would really suit. See you at the meet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivaspeed Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Awesome. Â Just awesome. Â I am so jealous of you having a road legal HB wagon.

8ball Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 If i could do the little emojis id give you the "we're not worthy" one. Congrats on passing. Now lets see if you can clock the odometer and cruise the f#ck out of that thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
