Re: 82' 910 Bluebird
I got a Pxt (from my 60-70 something year old panel beater! lol) of this pic of Annie's ass...
He has welded a strip on both sides replacing the original join, in an effort to reduce distortion from the welding...
Stoked as! He thinks she will be ready for me to collect this time next week
The drivers lower rear quarter is all welded up, and he has just spot welded the new join between boot floor and rear end.He has welded a strip on both sides replacing the original join, in an effort to reduce distortion from the welding...

Especially now that I've seen it step-by-step
In other news,
I have had another look at the 16's I'm keen on, and they came off a skyline, so we know there RWD offset.
That's a good start, now to check how they fit when I get Annie back!
I'm gutted to hear that my fancy battery has gone flat while she's getting worked on...
I know why tho...
She's a pig to start, due to the recessed valve seats, and because she isn't getting run for long,
the battery doesn't have time to recharge before she's shut down again...
Here's what it looks like: They may be rejected by aviation standards, but they are more than enough for automotive use...

Re: 82' 910 Bluebird
That batt looks sweet how do you get your hands on them I need one for my C-pap machine " it keeps me breathing at night "
How heavy are they are they dry cell I've been looking at redtops but very spendy small dry cell NiCad only last one night .
Would be good to be able to go away from a power plug for more than one night

Re: 82' 910 Bluebird
160jsss:
My mate maintains them for our national carrier... (I can't say anymore with out getting him in trouble lol)
There a wet cell, and have to be charged in a specific way.
and when flat (Like mine is now) they have to be drained dead flat, and shorted.
(I thought he was crazy when he told me to short it...)
Then he pulls it apart to charge each cell individually.
I think he said they get charged for 36hrs our something.
Put it this way, even with my alternator cranking as hard as it can go,
I still have to get him to charge it every 6-9months...
