Carsnz123 Posted October 16, 2017 Author Share Posted October 16, 2017 Shit finally. last page was getting a little slow on my laptop. Anyway after that 80s banger we have some pics Turns out the TEA is a little light to pick the front of the Cedric up so we had to do it with a jack like normal people Any way I gave Red a hose off with the waterblaster And then found somewhere to park it so I could leave the window down to let the inside air out. Doesn't it look smart on those wheels Plus look at this awesome tune player parading around its transistors So nothing really stunning has gone on I more felt like uploading some more pics of the car to the interwebs. I crawled under the car and it looks pretty good underneath. Ill probably drop the front subframe and rear suspension out to give them a lick of paint and tidy up the engine bay. I think i need to make a todo list. Ok I'm done, you can go back to your life now. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carsnz123 Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 Time passed and a rego on hold H330 turned up for sale. No motor and power steering box, plus a couple other bits missing but live plates. And lots of rust. The red Ced is going to donate it's motor for the short term and be shoved in a corner, Ive got to go pick up a parts car the has electric windows and a couple other goodies. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carsnz123 Posted December 30, 2017 Author Share Posted December 30, 2017 MORE PICTURES!!!!! Went and picked up the 330 parts car. Got to have some unsupervised fun with heavy lifting equipment. Probably due an air filter And after an hour of fucking around IT RUNS!!!! The challenge will be having it ready for Nationals. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carsnz123 Posted January 8, 2018 Author Share Posted January 8, 2018 Much progress has happened. Made a list Then ripped the front subframe out of the parts car as I'm going to use it. The parts car also had an unexpected bonus in the form of Lumenition optical electronic ignition. While removing the exhaust I managed to snap all 3 studs off which then required the use of an acetylene torch to remove. Dealt with leaky core plugs also revealing lots of corrosion in the cooling jacket. I went oldschool and shellaced the fuckers in. They wont come out any time soon. The shellac bottle said "Caution Flammable" on it. Decided to put it to the test. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carsnz123 Posted February 28, 2018 Author Share Posted February 28, 2018 Things are happening. Couldn't go past a factory service manual. Seller also had an imp one which I got for good measure. Hopefully its ready for nats. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carsnz123 Posted March 2, 2018 Author Share Posted March 2, 2018 I feel a little poor but this will keep me busy 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carsnz123 Posted March 11, 2018 Author Share Posted March 11, 2018 These Plus this should make it go a little faster. Yes I know they're the less desirable flat top carbs but they'll still be better than the downdraft. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
