goodluck with the sale dave, love that thing

Drinky - January 20th, 2014 at 10:56 AM

Basically I built this car from a rust free bare shell

I used the parts I had collected for years and I had another tasman blue 58 which was the source of most of the original parts,

I will be keeping:
Fluffy dice (gift from my kids)
Toll tag
Phone Cradle
Tachometer Guage (the tacho mount and all wiring will stay and can be replaced with standard VDO)
Other than that the only other parts you have seen that don't come with the car is the DSE number plates (I will have standard ones fitted) and the Roof Rack

The LONG bus and a half Shifter, Parcel tray, digital speedo will come with the car.

A few little details:
The rocket antenna topper illuminates with the lights and can be dimmed with the dash lights
The pin striping on the left rear guard has faded away. (hmm don't think it was prepped properly) :/
I have the 36hp engine which can be supplied with the car.
The engine bay has been set up to accept a stroker motor (carb access panels in the wheel wells) and engine seal can be altered to fit wider motor.
Has brand new wolfsburg west fuel tap does not leak so no fuel smell at all.

I tried to use only the best parts when I replaced them such as all Wolfsburg West Rubber, TMI Headliner, Wright Gearbox, all new brake parts etc.

It has 3 point retractable belts in the front and 3 point static in the back.

Drinky - January 29th, 2014 at 11:42 AM
