Hey will. She came from way back upper natone. Also unfortunately she isn't PMG. Its just some daggy paint previous owners put on it. Thats long gone
now. I'm having a trouble with my camera so I cant post pics. I have got rid of the daggy paint and had about 200 attempts to start her. I will be
dropping the engine tomorrow night. Eventually a full rebuild.
BTW Thanks H!
More pics soon 
Joel.

Sorry about the poor quality, Were taken on the video camera.
I took the carby off for a good clean out, I was suspicious of the needle and seat but all was good.

Rebuilt the stromberg carby and got it on.

I wanted to see how it ran with the carby before I spend a fortune on stainless lines.

Hey Thanks mate, I think I do to
lol serious? Did it have a later front end? Good to hear the families getting into kombis.
Yes its a beautiful place. I live up the north West, in a small beach town called somerset.
Where abouts did you live?
Just stripped down the 1600, Found broken tinware and a very dodgy extractor system.
Ill post up the pics in a minute.

Well,when we had a look around on forums and stuff
we recognized it by the indicators being below the headlights and i big rap-around bullbar with step.I dont know how else to tell them apart
really.
Because they are not really stamp as lowlight its just a nickname isnt it? Oh ok we lived on the west coast in Queenstown.
Cheers
