feathersword Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Very cool! I have a similar yellow one here in Wellington, might see you around! Your dash is mint! Mine is all cracked and rubbish. The 1300 4 spd is definitely no speed freak but still plenty fine to tootle about in - and hella easy to work on, if I can do it, anyone can!

Seedy Al Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 haha I have seen this a few time in my travels past levin had also considered the door knock and ask Glad someone local got it. Exactly like the one I got and sold to bizzo. But his is a bit minter in side Fuck yes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoeddynz Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Ha ha wicked!!! What a sweet as useful wagon. Before you start the engine swap you could just sneak a teeny tiny little turbo on there- blow through style. Run low boost and get wideband to watch the numbers. Would be worth it for a giggle. Bring a nasty little turbo and an old manifold when you come by over Jan and we could cobble something up. Then use pvc piping to the crab for max bogan factor. Could make ugly as blow off valve out of fittings and a spring. Welcome to back oldschool proper like- although you were on here many moons ago.

Bistro Posted November 27, 2014 Author Share Posted November 27, 2014 Might take me a while, enjoying the 1300 gas consumption! Don't worry, take you're time. The race is still on. I think I've had my motor for...since rookie worked at Halls...maybe 7 years? and the 323...4 years now? ....yea the race is well and truly on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mullins Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Cheers lads. Not sure I can make these big events as we have a SI trip planned that will eat most of my leave and income. Just had to say that my wife has really taken to this wagon. She's started driving it more than her car. Says it reminds her of her Dad's old 626 of similar vintage, when she was learning to drive. A few of her friends have said the wag is "cute" haha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullins Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Just got back from aformentioned SI trip. Calculating the direct route (sans all the other driving we did) that's 1,900kms. Not bad for a fully laden 1980's wagon. We did need a $700 brake job in Dunedin, but apart from that (and 4L of oil) she ran like a charm. If you're reaing this Alex, sorry we didn't make it your way - will be back down again sometime as we want to do some wine tours, so will hook-up then fo sho!

yoeddynz Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Thats cool. definitely come over and stay. Talk exile shit and bbq like old times. What was wrong with the brakes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullins Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Late reply eh, brakes were fucked. Shoes down to the metal, cylinders leaking. Started to smell them as we came into Duds. It's not oldschool if you don't set out in an unknown condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
