Thread: MEET Harry Highback

Ok did a bit to Harry today.Put the baulkhead back on to mark up where it need to be cut for the V8.




















This is it all marked up ready to cut.Would of cut it today but had visitor turn up..

PASSENGERS SIDE





DRIVERS SIDE





Will get it all cut tomorrow & i'll go & get the metal i need to weld in & i mite get a start on that tomorrow if i'm lucky to..

Ok hoping someone can shed some light on all these numbers for me..

Ok these are on the adapter to gearbox & T/case..

on the T/case side are cast into it.
MFC 020
these are stamped on the same side.
11 92 10



These are on the box side of the adapter.Cast into it.
M F CONV
03 79333 88



Ok these ones are on top of the gearbox which has been made for it aswell .there near the gear stick..
cast into it
M F CONV
03 79333 88
Stamped into it are
M F C 021
12 92 26



Ok these are all thats on the engine adapter
Cast into it are
M F C 181
Made in Australia
Stamped into it are
1 93 5





OK now for the gearbox itself it hase these cast into it.
A capital H with a circle around it & the number 5 just below & to the side of it & under that is a number
61209A


Hoping someone mite know what its out of.I'm sure its a nissan 5 speed cabstar.

Also what is this plate for on the passenger side of the box.I'm guessing its to add something to it..?????



Any help would be apprecitated guy.
Actualy i think Mick88 has a kit for sale in the markets..Hey mick could you post up a pic of that kit if you have time.Thanks..

Wild guess no.; 1 MF Conv = Mark's converters.

The plate on the side of box is probably for a p.t.o.,

Cheers Charlie

Hello, my guess is the MF is the manufacturer,stamped numbers are dates,the 03 number looks like a phone number and on the gearbox the H is probably the foundries emblem and the number ending in A will be the drawing number for that casting,no idea what the 5 is and the cover is for fitting a PTO drive

Ok did a little bit today.After i finished marking it all up i started cutting the bits out that need to be out.I drilled all the spotwelds so i could use the front bit on each side so when finished it will look factory & you would'nt be able to tell unless you knew what to look for..Anyway heres the pics of todays effort.There pretty self explanitry..The one with the bigger hole is the passengers side..

















































Ran out of gasless wire today so use the disposable bottle & gas wire for the first time today.Its ok but i'm so used to using gasless .Anyway that was the day ..

looks pretty good now and will look better with paint on it
