It doesn't quite work like that. You pull something off, just to look at what needs to be done. Then you see something else which you could easily fix so you take that off and lo and behold you see something that looks interesting... need I go on. Give me a call when you want the rotisserie! By the way you can knock up a roof patch at TAFE inside an hour! Don't be concerned about using a patch and bog as you can never shape a roof that won't need bog (unless you are Ledge). PS. How about downsizing the photos for us IT illiterates still using an 8086, etc.

Enrol in an evening/weekend course at TAFE and be taught the basic principles. It will not only teaches you to know what a good weld is and how to achieve it, but also how to troubleshoot - skills for life.

Well done Adam - I hope to be in a similar position to you this time next year.

Off topic, but Alan I trust you got through the fires okay?

If you have any 1980-1985 Lakeside programs could you send me a PM. I'm trying to track down a couple of Elfins. If Surfers was still running then they might also assist. Thanks Peter

I'm trying to turn '72 Datsun into a '63 Ferrari - carbon-fibre hadn't been thought of (for cars) in '63.

What the hell is going on here, I spoke to them today and they said the course is full and I can't enrol.* Seriously, I'm only going half the time this term as I'm just about done with what I need to do. Now mostly making moulds for fireglass body modifications. I probably won't enrol next year. I was surprised that the increased fee hasn't deterred anyone and the class numbers are actually bigger than before. * Joke Joyce

Because our homes are not built on stilts but on the ground. Water pooling near the foundations will cause subsidence with major cracking and structural damage to your abode. After replacing the carpet - twice, I punched holes in the ends of the guttering so now the water runs into the neighbour's house below and their place will subside rather than mine!

Just shows how different engineers are; my enigineer states that my 2005 LS1 engine must comply with 2005 ADR/emissions.

Which suggest '84ker' is the second owner since Tim. I wouldn't worry too much about the Wilwoods as long as you don't let the car run out of registration. My engineer is also happy to approve mine. It's all about Wilwoods not having dust seals on the pistons.

Mal Wood Automotive in Qld, but he is a long way from you and you need deep pockets! Do the LS1/Commodore sites recommend anyone in Melbourne?

I'm not too sure about having them keyed-alike but could probably get something very similar from Tuffy locks in the US. http://www.tuffyproducts.com/c-39-replacement-locks-keys.aspx

It requires the same intellect.

WHO IS SLIM DUSTY? Hand back you citizenship papers you Pommie illegal.

You wouldn't listen when people warned you not to sell it, now you're suffering withdrawals. There is a country and western suburbs song in this somewhere. As Slim Dusty would sing - In the wild Gladstone ranges came the word one fateful day To every AusZcar member that a boy had lost his way All the members quickly gathered and the wild exhaust pipes roared As they went to search the classifieds for a little boy lost They went out to search the classifieds for a little boy lost The blazing sun beat down upon the earth that final day With heavy hearts they prayed to God above to show the way When from a empty garage came the voice they've ne'er forgot Where's my datto, where's my datto, cried the little boy lost Where's my datto, where's my datto, cried the little boy lost

Mick - If you have fitted a GM motor why not fit a GM diff? I've got the drawings/templates. The axles are a bit of cost but if you can get the outer couplings made at 'mates rates' it is a once-off build.

Scoota - FYI In both pictures the spindle on the left is from my 3/72 - 240Z and the one on the right from the 2005 VZ Commodore.

David - I thought outside the round. I'm presently using a rectangular filter as I initially planned on an OTR setup. I've changed now to something behind, but above the radiator. Still a work in progress but just raising with you the option of other filter profiles, plus aluminium shrouds or housings.

Thanks - is the arm repairable or is it the spline? Photo? Interesting the spline and the thread are exactly the same as that on the VZ Commodore I used for a donor - nothing changed between a '72 Datsun and a '05 Commodore - go figure. Pity the Commodore arms are so big.

Anyone... Anywhere!

Would prefer Sydney if possible to save complicated packaging and post, Thanks.

Gavin When we next get a Sydney 'big wet' make sure you get a photo of the shed flooded by the run-off from the driveway!

Thanks for the comments: I've removed it all and will build up the deeper areas with matting and then Q-cell resin filler. (I'm weighing up whether to tie the laces together on a pair of trainers and throw them over the powerline out the front and sell the Q-cell powder off in small amount - I could probably buy a real Ferrari with the proceeds!) Never a problem with me.

Mick. Watch this a few time tonight to get in the mood. It will soon be released on rfactor2 - whatever that means!
