Now back to the ute

Painting all the small bit after a swim in the Citric

Then made up some dust covers so I can blast the nine inch, I have a few diffs to do

Trial fit of the diff, then remove tomorrow and blast and paint and get it rolling

Will be good to get it off the hoist












Poor old wagon looking neglected



All packed away until morning

Its not dark yet , why are you knocking off ya skirt ????????

Bit more on the ute today until the welder carked it, so bolted the diff in so I can trial fit the rims in the morning

Got the drivers side sub frame in and some rust repairs on the A pillar

With the welder out I robbed the wagon to progress the ute front clip on, pick up steel for chassis in the morning and hopefully fit The engine so I can sort the radiator







4 inch backspace and its still bloody close, but I want 14’s


Undercarriage getting there

Trial fit the 7 inch rims on the nine inch, about an inch clearance on the outside and an inch & 3/4 on the inside
Looking at 225’s so may have to reset the rims

Hi Gaz
Coming along nice mate you are getting a lot done at the moment.

You may have to go 15's mate that tie rod is real close even with the 15's on my FC and the 16's on EK the ute they are close.

That sounds about right for 205s. Unless you have really stiff sway bars you’ll get rubbing o the inside with body roll.

Quiet day today so I dropped the rims of at the powder Coates and the headers are getting ceramic coated

Sue’s A Coupe ones came up a treat, Local Powder Coaters did a great job

Got the back wheels on even with a 2 1/2 inch reset on the springs still looks like a 4x4 ha ha might make some lowering blocks so I can see how much I have to lower it
Get the chassis kit plates back from the plasma cutters next week then fit it all so I can clear the hoist for the Nats

Hope no one needs it

Front end has been sitting sooo long it needs a tidy up before I fit the engine

Some flat clear coat and the rotors should come up a treat

Nice work, Gaz. Looks like you’ve got a busy period coming up.

Cheers,
