My last desperate attempt to borrow some exchaust pipes!
Mattrix:
Interesting. I imagine it would differ between blue slip guys. I have a PDF open at home that tells you how to wire up the lighting, so I *should* be ok with that, here's hoping. The exhaust thing is annoying, I'll see what happens there. Did he mention the mirrors or headlights? Did he mention the seatbelts? I have heard things about those but am not sure whether I need to attack them or not.
Thanks for the info
Reklaw:
Sorry, forgot to mention the seatbelts. They have to be "of Australian type" meaning ADR compliant. I bought mine through Stamps Hot Rod Seat Belts, they were Hemco brand. There was a post on these about a month or so ago, you can buy direct from Hemco if you want. Just had to make up a right angled bracket so they pulled upward toward the anchor in the pillar. No mention of mirrors or lights. A few months ago, we did a mate's '74 through this Engineer. No issue with mirrors or lights there either.
Mattrix:
OK so I bit the bullet and took off the sidepipes (which, as it turns out, are hookers), and worked with my mate on putting on some pipes off a '77 vette that the guy didn't want anymore. It now sounds, well, average, but I have been used to sidepipes so that's gonna happen. Anyway it's only temporary, will swap it all back once rego is passed.
On another note, it turns out I have to redo all bushings... what a bloody expensive exercise that will be, so if anyone knows where I can get bushings for cheap let me know. Aussie dollar sucks at the moment, which makes the timing worse. But I'd like to have it on the road by March if I can help it.
