Had to do an extractor gasket as it was ticking pretty loudly under load, of course it had to be the drivers side which made it much more fun but the first drive without it ticking made it worth it.

Also bought new wheels for the ute but they ended up on this

Been a while since I updated this but not heaps has happened, have had the air con fixed again, new exhaust to replace the **** one I had on it originally which was hitting the body and generally poorly made (should have done my research on who to go to in the first place). I also had the roof lining re-trimmed and fitted some map lights while it was out. Also had to replace a water pump which started leaking about a week after I got the ute drive-able again. Have a full set of bushes for the rear end which hopefully ill get time to replace soon.

Wow those wheels look amazing, I’m normally not a fan of new wheels on old cars but you are pulling it off well!

Where did you get your exhaust done? I'm seriously looking at getting mine done at EP exhausts Salisbury, as they did one on my Commodore, that lasted for 16 years...(Yes, I was mightly disappointed:p)

I am open to other suggestions
