Getting there slowly. Once I get this last bit of body off & cut the transmission tunnel out it should move a lot quicker . need a big pressure wash fist though.

Na Aus they quoted me a minim of $300 for the repairs. Plus parts. I found the part I need on eBay for $49 free postage. It's the exact same part. It's the feed for the wire on my mig. So I'll get that in the next couple of weeks. Had a few big bills & a $1200 vet bill. From the pregnant dog. She need an emergency C section as they was to big to push out. Had 3 but only one survived. Plus Centrelink have stuffed our payments up now that Cody is 18 & finished school. So once back on our feet I'll get the part. Plus I'm looking at a 40amp plasma cutter since I cut so much metal.

Ok so I did a bit more to the disco over the last couple of days . Ive cut all the big body mounts off..

I then started to fit the lower half of the truck cab. So I can make the brackets for the rear bulkhead..

Well the disco radiator is going to be way to big. Its about an inch & a half to wide on each side . Id have to cut up the gaurds to much to use it..


https://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/im...015/12/625.jpg


https://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/im...015/12/626.jpg


So does anyone know where I can get a cheap stage one radiator or do you have one you could sell me. ??

That's a very impressive start.

Can't help with finding a Stage 1 radiator, but would something like a Rover SD1 fit?

I've never seen one out of a SD1 so I have no idea realy. Something to look at though.

Jason.
When I put a 302 Cleveland in a Ser3 I used a Holden Statesman 308 radiator,it was a pretty good fit.
