Thread: MEET Harry Highback

Hi Jason,
When you took the bonnet to pieces did you manage to find the correct rivets to put it back together again ??

I'd like to do mine but am unsure if the rivets are available.

Na Jerry I just use boxes of bunnings rivets. Those ones are 4mm by 6.2 in length I think.

Ok so a bit of an update . well overdue.. So I brought this for the use with Harry..

Then I built this to work under instead of in the direct sun..

Looks like a much nicer work enviornment Banj !!

the side extention is only thin, why is that-- future planning?

And this is where im upto so far. I cut the bulkhead outriggers off the series 3 chassis so I can use on the disco.

















































So that's where im upto. Im hoping to get the series body all bolted on before Xmas so that I only have to take it all back off & paint it all..

Ok so a little update . Ive been taking more off , cut off the rear half & sorting out the wires Have to take out all the wireing harness so I can remove fully all the wires I don't need like the heater , Aircon, electric windows & mirrors. pretty much everything other then the engine & ignition wires..
































But its about to come to a SREEMING holt. My mig welder has died & its going to cost the price of a new one to repair .I lost @ grinders to water getting into the shed..


So if anyone can help me I need some good quality tools cheap.
I need a gas/gasless mig
Also a 4.5 or 5 inch grinder


If you know where I can get these cheap please PM me..

I know where there is one Jason, let me know if you want it.
