It was going to be in July in our HQ Sedan but unfortunately has been put on hold for reasons out of our control
Huge bummer but that's life I guess

Woop, that was a good weekend.....
ALOT of nice cars on show, most of them Early Holden's.
VB-VL range there were only 2 Vehicles and none of them were VL....
That was the only downer for the weekend

No it was very poorly advertised....Bugger all public through the door's but they can only blame that on themselves.
Was a VH SS there (I assume genuine) with mags and afew other mods.
Other Early Commy was a very nice factory 5.0 4 Speed Manual VK Calais Sedan. Same car at Nelson Nats with your Wagon.

I kept a very close eye on the carpark all Saturday and didn't see either Banana turn up....I bet they would have pulled afew looks in the carpark too
There was an HZ Ute in the show I should load pics of later on....
Righto, here are a couple pics of this pretty sweet Ute....
Supercharged LS1 & 6 speed, and yes that's an ABS pump
No point of a large motor without a nice interior
It was voted Entrant's choice which was well deserved....owed him over 100k

wow thats alot of work gone into into that ute, interesting hard cover set up, looks like late model maloo cover.
The interior is sweet, huge job to get that all to fit, manual is cherry on top, well deserved win. Can see where the money was spent aye!

If it was pulled apart to do that then yes, completely agree. But, if you had a shell and no running gear, why not.
My Torana was the same case, shell when i found it, impossible to get it matching numbers again as the block is a mooring for the origional owners yacht.

Finally got around to relocating my wiring loom behind guards.
I went down to repco to get some wiring but they didn't have the same gauge wire that I need. Is it possible to get some wiring out of a wrecked vl and cut and solder them up?

Mate that is the best way to go,Just grab another loom from the wreaker and you will have all the wire you need,Cheap and you will have the correct colour coding.

I am a little stumped here, this is next to the fuse box how do I get the wiring for the headlights through the firewall and still be able to put the plug back in for the fuse box wiring?
drivers side just got the run wires
---------- Post added 14-04-13 at 17:19 ----------
This will be new fuse box location
Will get another tidy fuse box and put it back in engine bay cause it will look stupid not having anything there
