Old LTD choke cable hooked up to the original boot lock. (I just worked out which bit needs to be pulled to make it unlatch.....ran a cable back into the cabin, down next to the rear seat...pull it and it unlatches, push the cable back and it locks...worked fine for 6 years.

=]

More pics to come as I fix stuff up over the next month or two...

CHEERS!

Hey Mai Ki-Ki dig your plates is that the same number that you had? I think southern states get better choices with number plates for instance in QLD if you wanted to convert you plates over to a colour you have to pay about a hundred and something to convert them to you name 'customize' and probaly another 50 bucks to have made. Re-issue black and whites are about $300. I was lucky years ago to 'customize' black and white plates and keep them to use. Sunnymick 8) 8)

Yes, I always had those numbers, just wanted them in black and white, cost $90 to switch to the old colours from the 'new', not mad on Personalised plates , just needed a better colour!
