Using ford xf wiper in normal location will work.

Jake I owned several VK’s, mostly wagons in the late 80’s onwards. Your revival video of this VK wagon blows me away. Make me wish I still had mine. The module above the EST / EFI unit is the electric antenna and also the rear demistor / tailgate wiper module. Had a really hard time with Varajet II carburettors on all. Watch for perished vent lines on the tank filler neck - symptom is petrol will flow out on your feet when you fill. My EFI Berlina sedan was great. Well done on this mate, if I think of anything useful to share about my VK’s I’ll let you know. Wouldn’t mind seeing it in person.

15:00 mark. If you’ve ever been in this position. Absolute classic

Had me hooked the whole video, keen to see more 🤙

I still remember the '1985 Comes Alive' ads on TV when these were new, fk i'm old 😂😂

Can't fix stupid

There was a 173 Blue came out in WB VC VH

F word is a cxxx of a word

Loving the VK vids 👌

Yeh that can be bought back to like brand new garrantee

hope sponsor , how DM ?

New subscriber here from across the ditch my first car was a vk got a mean soft spot for the vk as a youngin in the late eighties I acquired mine done all the unnecessary mods lol watching you work on this one takes me back but over here you need like a kazillion doll hairs to purchase one in rough shape keep up the good work can't wait to see the final result

I think you'll find that's the wrong engine for the VK they came out with the black 3.3 202. Blue engines Manly come out in the VH

FFS. Seemed like. Good idea at the time.

I saw this on market place and was going to buy it as a parts car for my Berlina.

Great video mate! These old cars always throw a decent surprise and a good education for viewers to take on board. I remember driving a 5.0 VK Berlina as a new car, man I was in love! Keep the videos up, cheers.

Crank is fully counterweighted so it's from a blue or black 202, VC onward. Weird about the engine number. Points distributor is not original.

That sensor at 4:43 is actually an engine speed sensor for Carb'd VK's, it sits on top of the trans bellhousing and butted upto the back of the engine.

G'day Fella!! 😊

Retired mechanic says 500 .00 what we're you thinking .?NO MOTOR YOUR looking at a old chev motor you should looked for some sort of old truck. Sorry I don't see your dream .I whish you luck .

The Aussie huntsman spider. Can grow as big as dinner plates. Completely silent in operation and will sneak up on you while working under the dashboard. Harmless but will still turn a 120 kilo Aussie into a quivering child like mess😂

Ever used a Needle scaler? On this pitted rust areas? If so I guess they no good, I know they are noisy

Well Damn it, I was looking forward to you saving that one. Hopefully the Silver one has a better chance. Cheers.

Like the custom graphics on the bonnet 😂

Gotta love any video with Guttermouth

I guess the weight gain wasn't an issue.. left side could've been a direct shot into turbo flange.. u going to brace it back to the block to reduce vibration out there.. plumb it up n give it a whizz..👍

Loose unit fabrication lol

Legend!!! Getting it done, having a laugh. Really enjoyed it Jake

Good job

The common get around for the hand brake to leaf spring interference is a 2 inch lowering block. Doesn't help much if you're already riding low, but is the easiest fix if the ass of your ute is riding high anyway.

Seems legit to me.... Nothing to see here,move along. Fing overloading circuit.... Fark...

Bloody great work mate

Why use S80 S40 pipe would have been fine mate

Nice job in the end (which is all that really counts) 👍 For a future note when welding, an even hiss to crackle ratio is easiest way to tune your welder by ear

Ha ha! Bloody enjoyable mate, cheers for the laughs & great video.

Asking out of ignorance: would driving the turbo off only one bank not have worked?

I love your videos mate. Keep up the great work 💪

Why does the left exhaust do a big loop to the turbo instead of going straight to it?

Wow schedule 10 pipe for exhaust! Seems a bit heavy. Any reason why you didn't use tube instead? Not being critical, just curious. Nice work.

Good work, buddy😊

We've all been there I've had a Feck me it swivels moment😂😂 nice workaround but with the flex joint.

Awesome pipe work mate

Hahaha, just got to you realising it’s in a v band and can swivel 😂. I was just thinking can’t it swivel to suit, then next thing you realised. It’s something I would do😂😂

Bloody well done Jake mean set up for a 308 bring it on again , cheers , shaneo, Nelson, NZ, 👍🍺

It probably needs a flex joint between banks mate. Expansion and contraction. Also probably should watch whole video before commenting. Good to know I was spot on though 😅

10:17 been there

Looks good mate. Made me laugh a few times. The wagon looks nice too. What does that need to be finished?

Good job champ

Awesome video as always Jake, you’re inspiring me to get back into my HX ute build. Good stuff buddy

Bro you should see my dads 1982 vh commodore vacationor with a 60s eh inline 6 Holden drag motor
