Hi All. Looking to get my 80 inch back on the road. Wanting to reclaim it, not restore. After a good look over I need to replace the two front outriggers. Next job will be brake parts. Any info on suppliers or any input is more than welcome. The car is a 1950. Originally registered in Dungog, NSW. It has never been molested or modified, so is the basis of a good project. Cheers.

It's not a 'restoration', it's a 'reclaimation' :D
Does that mean he pulled her out of a bog? :eek:

Call it what you will. Have fun with her and you're darned lucky to have such an old girl in original nick and in such condition that you can seriously consider the 'reclaim' option. Hope it works for you because that's the sort of history that is important to retain.

Anything 80" is a good thing. They are rare but not that rare if you know where to look

I seriously need to change my sig pic to include my 80" :) and ditch the 109 series 2 :o oh for sale BTW :D
