I want to get rid of my berlina and get a calais Sorry for taking so long to reply, I've been away working. It's a Nov '86 build, so not a "series 2" (not that series 2 ever existed, lol). I don't know what to do with it, it needs some work and is half the old man's. He told me what he reckons to put on it but I know we won't sell it for that without doing more work. Running great still, although it's got a little bit of lifter noise on the left head, just clocked over 300k too. Paid 3k for it, spent about as much on it to date, although it doesn't really show. Owes us nothing so will probably just let it sit there and see what happens as far as doing it up. Money is the biggest demotivator at the moment, can't afford to do anything to it. My wishlist: Full respray (needs it). Or at least the bottom first and top later. Engine rebuild with some minor mods, nothing too stupid. Full gas conversion I reckon 10-15k to do what I want, can't see the funds being available too soon.

I may not be here on the 10th, if i am i'd be in

anyone got a spare fan and shroud need asap. Cant do 4th for a cruise but might be good for the 10th.

Got a shroud, sold the fan, will a nissan fan fit?

looks like i got a fan just need a shroud. PM me your number Bob and ill give you a call catch up for a beer and i buy that of you if you want to sell it.

Any decent carby tuners in town? Car needs it after I replaced the manifold, idle is a bit high and the throttle needs adjusting.

there use to be an old bloke at cardiff think it was in the back of the bp near the ford car yard, cant remember his name i can find out if you want just let me know.

go see glenn at g-force gateshead. he knows holden v8s like the back of his hand. good bloke too.

Thanks. Last time it was done was by a guy in Broadmeadow, John Collins I think. Did a good job, just seeing who else to get quotes from. Not many around that have decent knowledge of the old carby V8's. It's also had the exhaust done since it's last tune so should see a decent improvement with a good tune.
