That engine sounds pretty tight.

Bummer about the radiator can't get quality work anymore but they charge you for it can't you jet down the carby jets

I fixed my 650 Holley issues with a full Sniper setup including the dizzy, ignition box etc I fixed my leaking radiator with a blob of radiator chewing gum stuff in 1985 and it's still holding today. This weekend I finally got the repainted door trim back in including new bolts and clips for the armrests and spent about an hour getting the door latch chrome trim back on. I also had part 5 of trying to hang the Hardtop door properly...I can see that will go into several more parts as I have to do it myself. Keep up the great work, I feel ya bro.

Its pretty smokey BRO i can't see chooky

sounds nice to me you didnt spend a lot of money on the exhaust well done

My Saturday was using an Amazon plastic welding kit to repair the GT grill on my XB. It worked very well. Great to see your wagon getting closer.

good on ya ..

Interior looks really good, good job👌. The colour of the carpet reminds me of the carpet in the p6 Silver Monarch LTD. Cranberry i believe.

Well at least the carpet matches the bonnet hinges

Hows the price of eggs BRO

great job the carpet breaks up the interior nicely

I used acetone to clean my vinyl seats. I then used the vinyl spray paint to recolour them. Acetone works the best and prepares the surface really well for painting.

Well done. Always a nice feeling when you’ve completed it yourself. A shop would charge anywhere between 2-$3k for something like this!

I have a similar setup on my 302 W Fairmont! Designed it myself and welded it up under the cat on my back at times! Not a good idea!! Works a treat though!!

Sounds pretty good👍, good job on the exhaust👍

Hats off to you getting under there and doing the exhaust. Not to many folks willing to do that.

Nice work , Done well :)

Good work mate, will be good to hear her start when you finish the exhaust👍👍

Going well. Even better recycling :)

Been following you for a while, enjoy your content, except for the CRAP music. Just about blew my speakers up when it came on when you used the drop saw (1.50 mark) to cut up the exhaust. Because you talk softly I have the volume up, then on comes the head banging noise. Otherwise, keep up the good work.

Well done could clean up the welds and give it some high temp paint

That's great well done was a instructive build. great idea can't wait to hear it

Hey mate have you already cut the 2 guards up as the guard with the Wrinkles in it i can fix that for you as it needs a english wheel to fix it right

I put extractors on my Cleveland in my FD, you need to jack the front end up pretty high high enough to manoeuvre the extractors into position so the ends dont foul on the ground. I did this with the drivers side i dont remember having any issues with the passenger side though. Good luck👍

As I am finishing some ones unfinished project , I was wanting to see where speedo cable ran after going through firewall , to get to back of speedo , great videos

Hi.Have only done Xy Falcons.With those I’ve put the drivers side in before the engine,then passenger side in from underneath.You may be able to get the drivers side in from underneath if you lift the engine slightly.I had to modify the column auto linkages to go around the extractors.Good luck.

Nice one.

I don't think there is an "easy" way of fitting extractors! Passenger side is all good, drivers side pretty much needs to be done with engine out. Unless you can split the extractors in two as recommended by pacemaker. I have column auto but cheated by using a cable instead of linkages. Linkages were never going to work with FMX auto, power steering and extractors! Good Luck!

Looking forward to this whole car. Completed fully restored and finished. From William.

I feel yes bro. My first extractors, Genie brand, I bought second hand with the dual exhaust in the XB Hardtop.. well I decided to get any exhaust place to fit them and about 4 or 5 hours later, they were on and they had a very hard time doing it, they had to raise the engine I think on the drivers side. I have power steering and had aircon at the time. The other times they have been disconnected, was when the engine was out. My new set was installed when I was overseas by a place that does these all the time. Rear view mirror in my Hardtop fell off and it was only sitting in the shed. Stayed on for maybe a year. I think I used the permatex, so that needs doing again but this time I'll make sure it cures in the sun on a high UV day. Check your upper arm bushes while you have the front end apart.

look better with the GS grille only my opinion looking forward to the front end rebuild

Soak the rusty bolts in lemon juice. They will turn black ⚫️

I'm waiting for chocky to jump out of the car bro

Whats happening with the crusty outer door glass rubbers their knackered

You would be upset about GXL 's then they had very little chrome work apart from the bars

That sill panel wants a full skim front to back by the look of it

Did you just bog up the rust holes?

great job, are you going to apply clear?

Looking mint 👌. Nice work mate. Love that, final touch at the end... fuel cap🤣😂

Nice one champ. I'm here for inspiration on my rusty Holden in bits. Nearly got to paint the chassis on the weekend. Hmm, what's that. More rust. FFS..... Cheers mate

Coming up, good there, mate. Cheers mate from William.

Nice work. No clear coat?

Another fine Missle Industry production. I love the additude your taking towards this car. Getting it done.

Your not a sook man, Hold out for the gear you prefer, do not settle for just anything. You still have a long way to go on that wagon, a lot of other things to do and time is on your side, other opertunities will turn up. Wheels and tyres can wait.

Defiantly go 15 inch wheels. Globes would look good.

Yeah and I'd buy the custom wheels to suit. I'd get them in a 15 inch though, better tyre availability 👉

I'm pretty sure I herd chocky

Weldies for the win!

Go the 12 slots on the xc they look the best. 14x7 245/50/14 on the front and 14x8 265/50/14 on the rear. Was a good combo back in the day. I'm not even sure if you can still get them. They did really suit the car.

Yeah for my Hardtop I wanted a set of cheap 14" rims to get the blue slip and found there's nothing around and if you do find anything, it's cheap Chinese rubbish. Honestly look out for 15" rims as there's so much more variety. For the back 8" and front 7" should be fine as 8" do cause problems for wider tyres as they scrap when turning. I have 15x8 on the front and 15x10 on the back. 245 up front and 275 at the back with just a fraction scaling in the back and the scraping when turning up front. Guards are rolled up front but not on the back. Love watching your channel. My XB Hardtop is almost ready for rego.
