Built a corrector box for the speedo today. (from Jaycar) took a little while but the kit had all the parts and the solder went OK. Do a photo tomorrow.

For some reason the L3 cluster with the 16"x225 tyres have the speedo about 5-6 k's out at 60 and and 9-10 k's out at 100kph. The corector box should dial out the error using a GPS.

Shame...I loved this car. Oh well, onward and upward from here. :) Hope the new owner takes as good care of her as you did.

The exact same car? Very nice :D

By the way, off-topic I know, but how's the wagon going? Haven't heard anything about it in ages.

The wagon has the 91 Calais motor in it now - running n gas for more than a week also. It's now upto 395,000kms and due for the A/C to be gassed up. (the motor transplant had to work before I got this done)

The white 91 Calais is now stripped and no more.

And yes the same VN V8 - the sale failed to be completed... Cant say I was all that dissappointed at all
