Hellbus had an 1800 lump for sale for quite a while, check him out and see if he still has it. He is a Melbourne dubber like you.

haha thanks fellas, yeah i have u2u'd helbus and the motor is still for sale, unfortunately he flew to cuba or something this morning and won’t be back for a month.
I am trying to turn this into a positive by taking the time to build a nice motor and while the bus is not running might as well paint her too.
the only problem is the bank manager...
I am asking for a raise at work tomorrow and if successful I will see it as a sign to go ahead with the plan 😉

why don't you spend the month fixing the paint and slot the hellbus motor in next month?
It is the entire engine for $500, a bargain I reckon.

yeah, helbus's engine is defienately a option, I am just considering going the whole hog and getting an engine I know is built well and has warranty etc.
I don't have a great deal of knowledge or work space so i will be paying for labour either way.
I am not sure what condition my engine is in, but you are welcome to the salvagable parts, i am in melbourne of course so postage may kill you..
it makes me smile to know the parts will live on somewhere else 🙂

Is that your bus that is normally parked just off Park St in North Fitzroy wezley?
If so I admire it most days on my way to work, I live on White St and drive a blue and white bay.

Yeah, it is Euro Car Crash Repairs at 300 Lygon St (just north of Glenlyon Rd). ph. 9387 9027. The guys name is George.
I tried a bunch of places around here but since it was a pretty small job they were all pretty uninterested and some just clearly didnt want to work on old cars. I drove past this place and George was working on this nice red Mustang and was really interested in my bus when he saw it and did a really nice job and great colour match.
Cheers
Tim
