sub1980s

thanks for looking, look into USMB and other projects now again.

still have these rims,put aside.

Brat wheels

stripes on

Found these in pick a part rusty. tyres taken off and dumped. had some lacquer paint off white lying around.added a little of yellow to it.dabbed a bit of paint on the rim where the tyre hides the paint , the colour close to old colour,as didn't want to paint them pure white. The wheels rims will get road grime, brake dust over in time.

Graphics on,pick up some brat/brumby rims paint them off white.

Need a steering rack, and fan shroud, thanks for looking.

Do I put 4WD and touring wagon stripes on,will get price for it.

Gave it a wash.

licensing ,rego on hold black plates all good. Engine does not idle good, took it to someone to test,air leak somewhere. 3000rpm air leak disappears,spindle on carb possible?, running lean a little, they adjusted it,drive it good to go,might have take back for further look at it.

Thanks for that, on the road again.

Freshed up engine in car.radiator sent away to be checked ,pressured checked.

Check distributor timing,valve clearances.

valves were lapped at home with valve paste, while engine was away.

Cylinder heads ready to go on.

Engine halves together. Pistons in.

Crankshaft in, and camshaft.These bits came from spare engine and conrods. original camshafts and followers badly worn so thrown away. All other engine parts reused.

Cylinder heads skimmed. Engine reconditioners total costs $270.00 NZ Dollars. New bearings installed.All engine parts cleaned, surfaces oiled,a mechanic was on hand,parts put back together as Subaru factory service manual. Main Bearings in one side.

Engine was taken to Engine reconditioners.measured the crank,and bits. Pistons were within measured tolerances,so life still left in them,so didn't go for rebore and new pistons.So EA81 engine housings bore will be honed,new rings STD standard size.Main bearings crank ground to new bearing size of .010 for conrod bearings STD size. picture of crankshaft after petrol washed blowen with compressed air,bearing surfaces reoiled.

starter motors different for manual and auto,used different starter motor.engine able to be started now,1600cc sold it.
