Melburg Luft

Was a nice morning. Perfect weather and good effort for a first year. The organizers actually seemed happy to have a variety of cars there, and when leaving took the time to invite you to attend next year.
The fact that my car was Australian built must of escaped them though :p

Nah, I got the pillars from someone else. Didn't actually realize how hard they were to find until now.

Hi mate, thanks for the offer. Normally I'd say yes, but it'll just go into the "to-do" list that keeps growing. I'm hoping I can find one to bolt straight on.
Cheers

I'm trying to hunt down a teardrop shape drivers side rear vision mirror for my '65 notch. The car currently has the later square shape installed so I'd like to replace it with the correct one..

If you have any, or know someone else that has, please let me know.

Appreciate the help.
Cheers

Saw this near my work at Glebe the other week.

If the car starts I'll be there.

Looks like a great day guys. Weather seemed perfect too.
Wish I could of come with the notch as there were quite a few other type 3's too.
Cheers

I'm going to try and come but need to sort out a nasty misfire the car has first. The weather reports I've read say Sunday should be fine

Great shots Ollie.
Thanks for getting a couple of my car, I always wondered how it sat with two people in it.
Cheers

Hi guys.
Looking for a pair of pillar sections from a squareback that I can use to fit popouts in my car.
I Need the little hinge/tongues that my notch probably doesn't have.

Let me know if you might have something suitable.
Cheers

I think to lower it in the future I might just put some bags of cement in the back, it'll be a lot quicker and painless haha

BLAST FROM THE PAST CANCELLED!

Apparently the Showground will be closed tomorrow due the amount of rain they've been getting affecting the condition of the ground. (read it on another forum)
Bit of a shame, but I'll be going for a drive somewhere tomorrow regardless.

Forgot to update the thread as per hertz request.  Mission accomplished It's kind of bitter sweet but the car has been raised now. I had to use a friends carport as my gravel driveway wasn't helping. The car was also too low to get a proper jack under so we had to use a scissor jack to get things st...

No you need to get the spring plate seated on its perch first Jack up the the spring plate till its above the perch and then tap it in, where the torsion bar connects to the spring plate :wink: Yeah that's what I meant though. I used a jack to get it above the perch/shelf, but getting the plate eng...

They're always pricks of things to line up My some longer bolts and use them to align it once pulled in enough use the stock bolts :wink: Think they're M10s Cheers, yeah was thinking of getting a couple longer ones to help. So by bolting the cover back on, it should seat the spling plate correctly ...
