Sounds like a plan
I'm there.... oh wait the car isn't ready.
If i have a car to attend the cruise in I'll be there.
better knuckle down and get it registered.

Hopefully Kez's GH will be roaring up the streets again by then.

I personally like XE-XF falcons.
Yes i realise they lokk a bit like tissue boxes with the corners cut out but i like them.
I have an 87 XF s-pak sedan, 5 spd manual, shadow grey in colour.
I've had more cars than girlfriends but I've kept this car the longest...I even chose to keep the XF over my GN.

Nothing worth photographing.

Might make progress one day when i get some help.
Two hands just aren't enough



RHF Guard changed though.... its now red.

Pics up this arvo....hopefully

I'm Steve, 20 yrs old and am a cert 3 aged care nurse from Lake Macquarie. My dad bought a 79 LC hatchback for my sister (si81gma), myself and him to work on. (Larry - in builds section) Dad also has an LB hatchback with a 2.6 and many many mods but still under construction. Also have a silver LC ha...

Thanks guys.

Hopefully it will be on the road soon.

Can't wait to attend a cruise in Larry with Kez in her GH. Family convoy

Does dash cracks, ripped interior panels/seats matter?

So give it a major service. Pay attention to brakes and stuff.

Hopefully it won't take too long.

Just wondering if anyone knows whats needed to pass a NSW Blue slip?

I'm anxious to get the Lancer registered so i would like to know what has to be done before i book a blue slip.
(Generalisations welcome)

Most likely gonna have to change the drivers side front guard...

Its got little rust holes in it and one area has about 5 or 6 kilos of bog in it.

Lucky there is a couple of spares.

Funny!

But agreed

Doors are done. YAY! just need colour
Front apron nearly complete but looking good.
Next up front guards and bonnet.

Just curious why the forum is one hour behind the time.
Is it cos I'm in NSW and the forum is based interstate or does it not change with daylight savings?

Is it possible to cut and weld LC hinges onto an LB hatch so it fits the LC?

The LB hatch looks to physically fit the LC but the hinges are different.

Thankyou
Very helpful

Ok but as long as they are nice..lol
Anything with Skoob or Steve in it should be fine

Hey just wondering if its possible to change my username....
It seems silly to be known as si85gma and not own the sigma anymore.
I just wanna change it to something with my name in it instead of a car i don't own anymore.
Please let me know
Cheers,
Steve

Hey I'm Steve,
live in Cooranbong (Next to morisset)
I'm up for regular drives and meetups.... Once the lancer is ready

"I remember this car well. Many years ago I drove a man down to Sydney (From Newcastle) to purchase this car. He purchased it from the man who owned it when it was featured in FF&R all those years ago. The man selling didn't build it. I never really found out who did, although I remember hi...

The black lancer from FF&R in the early 90's wasn't a uni project.
My dad built this with his best mate in a carport in sydney.
So much for a uni engineering program as stated in th magazine.
Dad's mate has the magazine too.

My dad bought larry as a joint project for myself and si81gma.

Sold my sigma but i've been told its up for sale again in north wyong.
Somehow i think 18's are too big for a car that originally wore 13" shoes...

I think we're sticking to steelies.... Sleeper style

Just found out that pop may have a hatch for larry... winner... i hope.



Progress has been made, larry will be ready in no time.... i will be too exhausted to drive him though.

I think the uni joint is buggered too cos the car clunks when you lift your foot when changing gears.

All of a sudden i think it was a good idea that dad and i rebuilt the clutch in one of the others in the yard and that we have spare diffs, tailshafts etc

so any plans to actually put the car back together yet?
Poor sigma, just sitting there watching every other car get driven

make that just the doors.... previously repaired by the lord of the bog.. bugger.

All good now though... ish

To Do List For Today:

Sand the replacement doors, mask up and prime.
Same with front apron panel.
Possibly go over the front guards and remove any rust that i can.

The noise doesn't seem like it effects the driveability but then again its done it the whole time we've had it so we don't know what it was like before the noises. Judging by how the previous owner treated the car i wouldn't be suprised if the whole car needs attention, especially the oily bits, aft...

It seemed to me that the LB hatch physically fits the LC's but the hinges are different.

Is it possible to cut and weld the hinges so they bolt on??

oh and si81gma when are you next coming and working on larry with me?
Its kinda boring with no one to talk to

Hey guys, My dad just bought my sister ( si81gma ) and I a 1979 LC hatchback as a project. ( Can be seen in build section under "Larry" ) Was just wondering if they are known to make strange whine from somewhere in the rear end? Not sure if its the diff or bearings or brakes but it only ha...

"Plans are restore/tidy up to factory with 14" sigma steelies, 2.6, weber, exhaust etc."

Are they now????
