Thread: New toy

Great stuff Adam. I love the budda bonnet ornament and dual headlight

Looks nice and straight, but needs some tidying up. The headlight arrangement is similar to the latest Santana.

Nice and straight. If you can keep the Val engine. Much better than a GMH. Have low down torque and will sustain revs. Also have better MPG than 2.25 or 2.6 landy engine. Just dont flog 1st & Rev gear or over use 3rd and it will be fine. If towing a Nissota use Second gear in anger

nice to see another being resurrected

was it originally a 4 or 6 cyl Landy?

If it was a 4, and still has the 4cyl front brakes, I may have a set of 6cyl front backing plates with cylinders (needing a reco) and drums (oversize and should be replaced). I'd recommend getting new drums, but if you need to upgrade the brakes and want the 6cyl units, you can have them for free + postage. Ditch the old drums to save on postage.

Just pm me. It's good to see a series being restored.

hi agro;

Nice project mate. it's nice and straight . you will really enjoy restoring it , I wish I had a suitable place to buy a series and do it up

Thats a good looking project mate. I look forward to keeping an eye on your progress.
