Also need roof gutter trim, both sides if you can get it off ok. the list gets longer! And kind of desperate for a complete lock set with key? Any chance of getting these bits fairly soonish? Only I've got to get it ready for its first display on a classic car stand in November ????

No worries about the flaps, I will have the handles then, let me know how much to gl69bx UK and will get it over to you. None of the other bits?

Don't worry too much it will go nice on the 510 wagon Does the soob have rear mudflaps? If it does I will have them, along with the rear side markers, rear door handles ( the little ones to shut the doors with inside) and the scraper seals off all 4 doors and a complete lock/key set if all that is still availible?

fabulous

I want all of it lol, what colour is the headlining? do you reckon itll be easy enough to get out in one piece and ship to the uk for me? i might be interested in all the roof rack hardware too

Thats fabulous! I love it!

Have a look at my "well travelled all the way from oz to uk" post further down the page Haven't donor the trans yet but that's come,dead easy. Go for it, you guys will be fine

Just spent the last couple of weeks investigating a strong smell of fuel hanging around the hatch only to find a totally rotted filler neck and pinholes in the tank... Tank fixed,new filler neck fabricated to exact specs of original,all refitted only now I can only get half a tank in before it reaches the top of the filler..... What is the the relevance of the black box with three pipes that sits up in the boot behind the plastic liner? All pipes have been replaced and in the correct order. Also,what is the small breather by the filter? Would this be blocked somehow? Haven't tried air lining it till I know what it is and wether it's one way etc or not. Seems odd it was brimming fine before I took the lot out....unless now my senders faulty reading only half when in actual fact it's full :/ Just wondered if anyone else had similar issues. Cheers

I absolutely bloody love that blue wagon....mine will look like that one day....

Ok,they are both solid needing very little if any welding. The gl just needs painting and putting back together with prep for paint and a better engine,it has a 5speed box from a gen 2 fitted by previous owner which needs minor modifications on mountings to work perfectly. But is all complete. The gft is original and untouched,has minor surface rust from storage on all panels but is by no means rotten. Needs work to drivers window which has come off the runners and an exhaust. Has 1600 twin carb ea71 in it and 5 speed box. Unsure of shipping to USA,I know it cost me a lot to get my dl wagon back here from Australia but I was impatient and wanted it ASAP lol If you want more pics just shout

I've got a 78 gl coupe in the uk if you want it,and a 79 gft

I have a 4 rib steering wheel,pretty sure it's black though.came off a 78 gl coupe. I do have a gft with brown interior,not sure what's happening to that yet as to wether I can part it or not. I will keep you posted

You have my list

I'm putting an ea81 into mine,mainly because it does all the things you describe yours as doing and it's had the valves/ heads etc done already.......plus I would as you say like to make it a bit more dependable. The ea81 engine and box I have came out of a gen1 brat anyhow so should fit straight in with little hassle....that's the plan anyway. As for keeping it original you can always keep the ea71 kicking about to put it back in if you need to.
