Good memory Clay ... yep, my driver's and passenger's belts are 'Bodigard' ... I've picked up a complete 'Holden' centre belt which has a similar old syle appearance... so I'll go with that.
Long term, I'll probably put inertia reel belts in... with previous cars, when I've taken them over the pits here, they questioned my inertia reel belts - wanted me to have them engineered - until I came back with evidence that they were an optional equipment - and I had all the correct fittings.
Thanks
Patrick

I had a look at my 'small jobs' list - took the carby off and dropped the throttle body off to David at Canberra Carburettors

EK will have to wait until the weather warms up ... it was getting to a point of only being able to (comfortably) tinker for about an hour a day
In Queensland for a bit ... tinkering with lawn mowers, flyscreens an such at my daughter's place ... long shadows from sunshine first thing? what the?

I hear it's warming up back home, so it's time to turn around I guess

Hi Patrick, don't do anything rash! Apart from a random 20c predicted for Tuesday, lots of 14s and mornings of 3s! I managed to splash a bit of paint about today but its still cold.
