Shakotom Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Put in where the spare wheel would go Should be nicely tucked up and would be easy to build some form of shield for And carry tyre inflator kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingbrick Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 That's where the last owners put it. There is no room for a wheel now! And the space where the stock tank was (on each side) will be taken up by mufflers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threeonthetree Posted October 20, 2014 Author Share Posted October 20, 2014 Oh damn, I have a mint interior light and lense sitting here with your seats... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingbrick Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Too late son. But thanks! Can you use it? On the reverse of my black base it says CHROME. Is this missing something? I was gonna go aftermarket but then thought.... The only person that will care or notice is me so I may as well get the satisfaction of doing it myself I also pulled the tailgates out of the tray. The brown rusty one is fucked. The green one had dents and holes from tie downs and iv welded those up+ straightened it as much as possible but its so difficult with no decent access to the insides for a dolly. I have two options that I like. One is bog it up and UAE it as a plug to make a fg skin..or Buy a Taiwanese copy NEW off Trademe for 150 bucks. So cheap it's a nobrainer really.

Threeonthetree Posted October 21, 2014 Author Share Posted October 21, 2014 The interior light you have was used by Holden from 1969 to 1988. The ones used in HK HT and some HQ models were chrome painted plastic. Everything after that was black plastic as far as I'm aware. I think they still used the 'chrome' tooling even after they went to black. I'll use it in my HG or HQ so no worries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threeonthetree Posted October 21, 2014 Author Share Posted October 21, 2014 Advertise the magashifter in the Petrolhead free newspaper. I believe placing a for sale ad is free. Perfect target audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingbrick Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Good afternoon oldschool My WB has no side mirrors and WB mirrors are too bloody ugly for me to spend money on. GTS mirrors are DAMN expensive so they are out. Anyone have any suggestions? XA mirrors are very very nice but again, pretty pricy and really a little too fancy for my heap.

AllTorque Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Chuck some relays in when you wire up the headlight. You'll thank me later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingbrick Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Thanks bro. Yeah that's definitely going to happen. I really do want to run some decent wattage globes The cable I have is pretty heavy so should be OK to have relays in cabin...I hope.

AllTorque Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 I'd be putting the relays in the engine bay to keep the power feed wire as short as possible. There's plenty of hiding spots around the headlights. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threeonthetree Posted November 14, 2014 Author Share Posted November 14, 2014 Definitely relays in the engine bay. Then make a masking panel to cover them or just line them up tidily. Makes future tracing much easier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threeonthetree Posted January 4, 2015 Author Share Posted January 4, 2015 Bench seat for sure. So you can chuck one arm over your Sheila while the other arm rests on the window sill and steers you along. Also, it's much easier. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr.wylde Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 or VK buckets are practically a bolt in job using factory holes in floor. the panel gaps on WBs dont get me started! you need those L shaped plates obviously but Undo your rad support and try to get that sitting as far back as you can This should help with getting things to lineup I gotta 15mm gap between the bonnet and the front panel its yuck!
