Thread: Shonky's Series II Restoration - Parts Shopping List

- 2.25L Petrol Engine. Preferably complete and in reasonable order. I want to have a crack at reconditioning the engine so it needs to be salvageable (obviously!)

- Alternatively... 2L IOE Engine. Same as above, but would rather sacrifice originality for practicality. There you are Diana - I listened!

- Bellhousing to suit 2.25P (or 2P-IOE).

- Front Bumper.

- Rear crossmember. If someone has a good one lying around - great! If not I will have to get one from FWDs.

- Tub to suit 88" or tub side panels. Full tub is preferable as one of the rear panels has a gouge in it. Also easier to fit.

- Guide plate for yellow 4WD knob. You know the one I mean...?

- Grille panel. Mine is rusty, but repairable. I am capable, but lazy. Geddit?

- Door tops. I need some, but doesn't everybody?

- FIREWALL. To suit 4cyl - needs to be fairly straight and rustfree. I am dubious of my ability to fix the one I have... I will probably give it a go though, but it would be good to know where I can get a good one when I screw it up!

- Compressor. Needs to be of reasonable capacity for painting and running air-tools.

- Air tools / spray gear. To use in conjunction with above.

Updated! - Indicators, tail and running lights. I will probably buy newbies but if someone has some sitting in the shed that they never got around to fitting I would rather I save money and you earn some.

Updated! - Tyres. I am thinking 205R16 Dunlop Super Grippers at the moment, but last week it was bar treads and god only knows what next week will bring...

Updated! - Overdrive. Alternatively, high ratio gears.
