mutinys personal six

[fletch]

yea i stripped a super six a few weeks ago, still got a lot of the parts

[Mutiny]

damn son, would be so keen, need the indicators in the bumper, just the lenses. arm rest for drivers door if its black, ash tray front the back of the bench seat(not a biggy, do have one which is easily repairable), what grill did ya have? drivers side window winder, the one for the small quater window. think thats pretty much it

[fletch]

i have the small window winders. im converting my front quarter windows to the later style with no winder. just have to figure out how to remove it

i bought one new old stock indicator from thailand as my lenses are all damaged. I have found some more overseas, looks like they will be about 60 euros each(complete unit). im trying to get my mate in the uk to get them for me. are you interested?

no arm rests sorry, they all lose their shape so i chucked them all out

dont have any grilles like yours. they are easy to straighten as they can be dissasembled into a million pieces and repaired

you can have the winder free. pm me your address and ill post it to ya when im over

[Mutiny]

dont suppose you have the fuel level sender from in the fuel tank too do ya?

well l23s ready to come out, and a l26 has found its way into my garage. few differences, starter motors are on different side which will easily be over come as they just attach to the sandwich plate so ill run the l23 one. water hose is on a different size so will just be a matter of running longer pipe for now.

have got the brakes un siezed, brake shoes in front seem kinda low so will be getting them re lined, rears still have quite a bit of meat so will leave them for now. considering its drum all round i may get re vin and then look into doing something else later on down the track with putting some dics on.

have started the rust repairs, have started on rear right door, ready for patchs on the outside. couple doors need some patchs, couple are still solid, both front guards require a repair at the bottom. one rear guard needs a small patch, whole front of bonnet needs new steel, overall wasnt as bad as i was expecting.
floors are all really solid, probably due the the inch thick layer of grease on the under side of the car.


anyway heres some pics, l23 ready to come out, note the sweet exhausts they have




heres the l26, will throw in some new frost plugs and paint the block then wack it in one night this week



couple interior shots for you piners

[Bartman]

nice one Sam!

[brocky41]

That motor looks at home already - your attacking this one at pace - keep it up

[Mutiny]

cheers for the positive comments guys, anyway, big hole etc

sundays can be quite productive when your not hung over

[Bartman]

Now would be a great chance to cut and polish the fuck out of the engine bay.
Also, given that the original engine is a bit er, special, it might pay to tripple check the ends of the cranks are the same before you try to fit the new engine. Nothing worse than finding the converter wont fit after hourse of battling to get shit together.

[Mutiny]

yeah thats one of the first things ill be doing anyway
