    I think that it's a standard WB front.

    If the lines are the same does that mean all I need is the front panel (lights and other bits)?

    Ha ha thanks, I think that it is really lacking in power. It sounds very strong but doesn't light up like I would expect... Any ideas?

    My thoughts are the carby needs a tune up and the turbo 400 needs a service.
    Black WB bodied HZ panelvan with a 400 chev called Frankie :nerviness:

    start with the basics.. things youd do anyways like leads, plugs and points (if you have them). Chances are its carby but no point in getting the carby rekitted or buying a new holley if plugs are filthy and timing is miles out (points). I had a 350 chev and T350 in an HJ ute and the wheels would fry at under 2,000 rpm on the brake! loose

    the trannies are pretty straight forward i think. maybe just drop oil and change filter (in your box) before you go spending money at the mechanics. also check your vacuum line isnt perished etc. that will impact on the shift

    Looks like a WB Statesman support and lights, WB (round headlight) top panel and WB commercial plastic grill.

    Make sure the can is installed right in a 350, might be out by a tooth on the timing chain. Turns a sweet motor into a dog.
