Must have been a bit of cutting and shutting to shoe horn that windsor in there.

You got your work cut out for you there Merlin.

That will be nice with a worked 2 litre pinto with twin webbers.

Little Kents are good engines, always reliable.
 
Always liked the power in the 2 litre pintos in the small bodies.
 
Most common upgrades are those SR20? turbo engines these days.

Sounds look a fun trip.
 
Love that Omeo area through to Lakes Entrance.

I had 17s but they didn't look great. Went back to 15s with a taller tyre. Look a lot better. 

I recon i looked around for these decals for ages and couldnt find them.
 
Steves on the money, probably easier to get some one to make up some repro ones.

I went for a samsung tablet in the ute. Has all the mp3, mp4 functions, plus GPS and internet for searching if required.
 
Just run the headphone socket to an amp and drive 2 subbies and fronts from there.

I have a JVC in the XC and Kenwood in the XE.
 
I believe they are one in the same brands now.
 
Dont bother with the cheapy hong kong MP3 things, tried that and they are shit.
 
 
 

Tek Screws? Cable ties?

Wasnt sure on the Xe, XF. I been playing with the XC to long and they use speed nuts.
 

What carb setup?

I like this member already!

Old school car, if I can't chrome it then it gets polished

I had a similar experience lining mine up.
Get the guard right and the doors are out. line up the doors guards are out.
I lined up the swage lines perfectly and the tops and bottoms of the doors dont line up to great.
I think this is why the "masters" of our craft add welds to the door edges to get gaps correct.
I also noticed when doing the body work on the rear wheel arches that the profiles look the same but when i used a prfileing gauge they were quite dissimilar.
I guess perfection will come depending on patience and desire to modify.

Pretty sure they do.
 
they do the same with the windsor mounts.

Hey what you do in your own time is up to you!

Come on man haha. 
Fresh fluid and Nulon G70 additive was the first thing i did 

Did you at least whip the diff hat off and check the fluid inside?
 

The starter did have a spacer which I removed before fitting.

Flexplate was like new, gear in excellent condition.
 
I should really recheck the mounting bolts i guess. Might pull the starter out and check everything this weekend as its gicing me the shits.
 

Yes take advice. I nearly lost my thumb on one. I used thick cable ties to tie off the next ones i did.
