Norfolk Island Landy Build

[Lostkiwi]

Hi all
Just thought I would put a few pics up of my Landy As you can see I'm a few days away from taking her for a test drive Something to look forward too!
Not sure what year it is But it's definitely late S2a. Is there away of finding out the year? maybe thur chassis number? I'm Having to make do with the parts I can source on Island as Freights pretty high.
But luckily there is a number of wrecks laying around
As you can see I'm putting a Salisbury in the rear. Ive a holden 186 to go in at this stage, But if i can find an Adapter plate there is a 253V8 sitting under the bench
Will try and keep a few pics coming thur if anybodys interested

looks good, plenty of hours to go Enjoy it, I do, even if the wife is puzzled how I can be 'enjoying' and swearing at the same time.

Send us the chassis number and we/I can check it against the NSW delivery books. That will give us a close estimate of the month and year.

Thanks to Lotz-A-Landies
I now know the age of my Wagon. It's a 1968 model. I'm now in the process of tracking the history of it on the Island! Which is proving to be harder than I thought Anyhow will keep working on it Will post some more pics soon

Looking great, mate.

I envy your work space - and the outside storage - I have none of that.
