My first Series 2a x3 (NZ)
Hey guys,
This was nice to come home to! Ordered from paddock spares on Sunday and they arrived Friday 3.45pm! The bags have the gear lever, low range lever and handbrake gators. https://www.aulro.com/mobile-gallery...468ebc48f1.jpghttps://www.aulro.com/mobile-gallery...97d722988b.jpg
Here’s the finished dash panel too! I’m liking the finish.

Tomorrow I’ll work on taking a few more bits off. I have the steering box recon kit and steering relay seal coming, so I think I’ll get those off and prepped
Cheers
Simon

Hey guys, quick update on what I have been up to.
Gauges installed in the dash panel and looking great! https://www.aulro.com/mobile-gallery...4ee3d3ee96.jpg
Last weekend I rented a engine crane and pulled the engine and gearbox out around the bulkhead so i have a bit more room to repair the bulkhead. The whole process was smooth and only took me two hours!

I started to pull the engine down too for a lick of paint and tidy up. I ordered gaskets and o rings to rebuild the Nissan’s oil cooler which is leaking oil badly.
I still haven’t gotten into rebuilding the steering box, but that will be my next job.
Cheers
Simon
