and if the mods ask im searching atm but with not much luck
this is the inspection list,it was bigger before but most of the easy stuff is done
PITS LIST:
INDICATOR DIP SWITCH LEAVER REPLACE (ive got the leaver now to install it)
HEATER/DIMISTER-TO OPERATE (think its the cable,trying to suss out wreckers atm)
REAR DOOR TO OPERATE (chaseing down parts through rare spares,but wouldnt know how to fit)
CONNECT ALL ADR INCLUDEING CLOSED VENT AIR CLEANER (is there any other air cleaner i could use that would fit a rochester carby that is ADR aproved?)
CORRECTION/RUST STEEL PLATE AND WELD ALL RUST (panel beaters is sorting that out)
Molong is a small town about a 40min drive from Parkes where we live, that dealer, I expect it is closed like most small GMH dealers, interesting though

Cool, i'll add most of that to the database.
get your self a gregorys/max ellerys manual I prefure the gregorys. the basics of remove + install and tools requred are in there. after you've owned the van for a year or two you'll prob never look at the book again but its worth having one.

If you can put a spanner on a nut without burring it up and can tell if the bolts are imperial and not metric then you can rebuild a Holden commercial vehicle. They are easy if you take your time and get on here and ask a question if you have any dramas. Use the book like razsandman says. Problems with heater controlls are probably the hardest to work on to start with as it usually means a bit of dash disasembly. Just remember that if this farmer can do it so can you.
