Thread: 1980 V8 Rangie Build Up.

If anyone knows were i could get a rear window rubber and driverside door arm rest it would be a great help thanks Tim.

Hi
I have a two door too, yours looks very straight and clean.
The only thing I was dubious about is the plug leads resting on the top of the rocker covers, won't they melt and/or earth?

The rear window seals, I was looking for one too I couldn't find one, I got an old crappy one and just cleaned it up a bit. I didn't try the dealers in case I had a heart attack.

I wouldn't mind the 4.4 though

One word of advise is get a dash mat for your 2 door mine is now so brittle I snap bits off on a regular basis. Yours looks in good nick it would be good to keep it that way.

good luck with it

Thanks Mate.
Shes not to bad mate, I will be giving the engine bay a make over, new leads,rocket cover gasket,paint all items which are looking a bet ruff, The dash is perfect except the cover on the binnacle which i'll try to repair and get a cover for the dash.

Would not mind some new carpet might see if i can do it local but.

Hi
I seen a full interior on ebay for $200 in seats, not sure where it was though, NSW I think?

Well my transfere case is F*&ked and needs new shims which ill get done in the couple of weeks, On a good note found some door armrests with handles A custom made snokel and canvas seat covers for 2 slabs.

Hi Rocky, i'm pretty sure there isnt a seal in the top tailgate window, when i cut mine down to a ute i shortened the frame and there was only a rubber strip that is folded over the edge of the glass and then pushed into the frame.
silicone it up may be the easiest fix as the bolts that hold the frame together get rusted bad.

Ok went and picked up some parts of a old 2 Door From Rockhampton Land Rover, Great guys down there very helpful, Anyways got some custom sliders of the old girl in really good nick they fit up were the sill goes, Gave them a lick of paint and will fit tommoroz.

Heres a few pics of the sliders.
