I thought I'd merge your 2 posts Dan, since they are the same car.
Nice work Dan. Very Nice. I will have to check it out one day.
I've got my V6 sitting by itself, I'm just about to start drawing the flywheel and engine mount pattern so I can design the adaptor.

Hey ryan,
It hasn't been too difficult to put in as the engine mount had already been fabricated.... just had to drill mounting holes in the rails, it
really was a bolt in. The loom took a while to wk out and mount, as did the 15 or so miscellaneous hoses! Adding the extra radiator turned out to be
the most consuming part I think? 3wks all up so far! 2L g'box |

absolutely !! believe it or not, it's got an adjustable front and twisted rear ! in that pic she's sitting on the rubber bumps !! I think it
was those 70's making it look high ? on 60's at the mo
I've been meaning too get adjustable bumps....too really bomb it, but now it seems I have a slight sump issue complicating things  not giving up yet though |

Nice ride Dan. I love the colour to. Wouldn't mind a bus one day. Hopefully it will be an option and not a need. Two kids are enough for me.
It looks sweet though, I miss the camper that taught me so much about the ways of the world.

Hi,
Yep, she's back on the rd Flying
The rad underneath works great! airflow had been a concern...even designed a new shroud to scoop more air..but so far haven't needed it...spent
new years driving up and down the coast..doesn't get any tougher then that
I have made several copies of the set up, so if your interested in going that way let me know
Will try and update my pictures soon!
cheers

Hi !
Sorry for taking so long to reply!
I'm not really sure on an exact price at the moment? will sort out a price and post it tomorrow?
Have you got any 58 bus rear lights? pressed bumpers? Full length roof rack for a bay?
I read you've already gone the bumper bar route? got any pics yet?

hi,
well I'm thinking around the $250 mark, thats not including the radiator!
the cradel is made from 316 stainless, with 4 hem's and 13 folds! they're a beast to make I assure you
still wking on the current pics
"current pics & information on how it's running??? "
do you mean the cooling?
it holds 85 degrees all day form 10 to 90+ mph .. it wk's really well!
