Masonh38's 1979 Suzuki CX-G

[Masonh38]

Hi i'm Mason, ive being skulking around these forums for about 2 years and haven't really posted too much.
So a little while ago Threeonthetree told me to put my Suzuki up and ive just got round to doing it. (shit time management)

Right, so its powered by a F10a (45 timewarping horses) and its hilarious to drive, especially in the wet.

Interior is probably the best thing about the car. The outside is many different shades of primer with bits of surface rust here and there, haven't found anything major yet but im sure there with be some suprises somewhere.

 

Plans

• Make it all one colour
• Remove whine coming from gear box
• Linkages aren't the best so sort them out.
• Daily the hell out of it.

 

 

 

 

Unfortunately it has recently deveolped an electrical fault (randomly the fault developed when i was installing the radio,weird) which has caused it to only be able to power the high beams and thats it. So if anyone has a wiring diagram for one of these long shot i know, please PM me or if you know a good auto sparky around the souf auckland area that would help too.

 

Cheers for Reading about my Japanesse rollerskate and hopefully i can bring it to more oldschool goings on

Hello again, I'm going to be a little bit slack with updating this,

because I spend alot of time at Tech plus when im not there im studying.

Right so first things first, found out the hard way it doesn't like stop start traffic at 5oclock on a friday, attempting to get out of auckland. Solution pull over on motorway wait for engine to cool, refill water, heater on and drop rear engine bonnet and make sure I dont stop moving.

 

Right so I ended up taking it to an auto sparky and he sorted it for me (turns out it was kinda my fault), and i've done some other stuff since.
I pulled rear door card things out and made another set so I could cut holes in my homemade ones and put speakers in the back.
Did an Oil and water change, which reminds me theres like this brown junk (see if i can get a photo) around oil filler cap and pcv hose. Is it a blown headgasket ?
I chipped all of the sound deadning out of the drivers and passenger footwells there is a leak somewhere and it's caused some rust, hasn't gone through but is close.
 

 

So this is my original list, i've ticked one off.

• Make it all one colour( I actually added more primer... shit)
• Remove whine coming from gear box
• Linkages aren't the best so sort them out.
• Daily the hell out of it.

And this is what i have added to it

• Fix rust in both footwells
• Find and fix leak, think its coming through front bonnet.
• Find a way for it not to overheat in heavy auckland traffic.

I'll add this photo, so it's makes this update kinda cool.
