Here it is. Had a bit of a drama with the new carpets. Gave it a wash on the weekend, first time since picking it up from the painter last week. He forgot to reconnect the drain tubes for the plenum and flooded the carpet and underfelt. Chucked the lot in the skip and will replace with new. Once they are saturated you never seem to be able to get them completely dry and they get mouldy.
Is there anything else you guys can tell from the tags? I work at Holden and the place is full of car nuts. Used to talk to some of the old guys (I guess I'm one of them now) and they told me its possible the body was built and then sidelined for some reason - a rework or something, and then got built done the General Assy with the HZ's that had started being built.
Have any of you guys dug into the history of your individual cars? Previous owners, dealership that sold the car etc? How and where did you start. I rekon some young bloke had this one becuase the guards are lipped, chrome hood hinges, catch, power booster and diff cover. By the time I got it though it was preety sad.
I rekon this history is as important as the history of the model.
