That could be a suitable time for a GTG?

Now there's a pleasant thought - a mid-winter BBQ at Michel's! Jerry is one fabulously good cook.
Motec can take the Kommando hunting for fresh meat!

Well my Kommando Wagon arrived in Canberra yesterday morning. Thankfully not while it was minus 7. But still ice on the ground. This is a direct question for Styria . The welded vinyl style seats is there anyone who can do these like Parkes. As it has a few tears in mine that need to be done. I will change the transmission back to the trimatic that should be in the car from the powerglide that is in there. And get it registered then head to Sydney for a paint job.

I thought it was a 350?

Good to get things in the one place so you can make progress!

 

[BenzBoy]

It will make for an interesting project. I love the joiner in the vac line to the brake booster - or is that GM Part 005438j89hy?

Well I have located the correct transmission for my Wagon . So it is booked into Belconnen transmissions to be fitted then I will rego. And see about paint. In factory colour.

Keeping it stock just to rare to mod .Could not find exact air cleaner decal . One on car reads Chevrolet 250. One I found has same but 155 horse power underneath. Which is correct power rating.

If you can peel off the old decal or at least get a good photo of it there are places that can reproduce it for you. I would have to look them up - or maybe Craig S knows them off by heart? I had decals made for the Spirit after I ruined one just days before a Concours.
