Went & picked up another parts wagon today, last one i'll be grabbing to wreck unless something special turns up. Finally got the front seats i was after, top half of the rear seat should scrub up but dought the base will. Good thing is car bases fit so should be able to track one down if need be - i no this much this wagon is the perfect wrecker. Every little bit i need for this & the Vl i'm doing is all on this one so $150 well spent:rockon:

150 well spent mate,grab what you need and part out the rest,make your money back no probs

 

[GypsyNz]

Yeah for sure - will do quite well on this. Found a $100 pair of Italian motor cross goggles under the back seat already lol

Well made myself get my sorry ass out to the shed today & actually do something on the Vc, so far i've sorted out the exhaust to over the diff & welded another section on to give me a straight run to the rear. Just the tail section to weld on next. The hole systems done in 2.5 inch with the one straight through muffler so it should sound mint, once i get it fully welded just have to get a gasket for the collector & get those 3 broken studs out of the head then that'll be the exhaust ticked off the list. The oldman let me no a trick to get those out so will get to those soon, basically weld a nut to the broken stud & ease it out . So that's the next mission.
Also while shes in the air i'm going to finish the rear of her - new tank going in plus fuel pump as the one i got leaks, got the new shortened shocks to fit & the adjustable panhard bar. Will try do all that this week , after that i 'll probably do that last bit of rust i've been putting off. Well better go do some more - heres a few pics :thumbsup:
