I just worked out how to post pics again using facebook as the photo storage location. https://scontent.fsyd11-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.6435-9/123878488_10219087024306523_542187021635723089_n.jpg?_nc_cat=106&ccb=1-5&_nc_sid=8bfeb9&_nc_ohc=DSmhIhJjJHgAX8zAyTE&_nc_ht=scontent.fsyd11-1.fna&...

Thanks for looking at it Cottees
I see it's all working again, I just had to disapprove some posts, and ban some spammers...lol

Thanks
Dave

Good to see you're still plugging away at this Marty.
Any updates since the last?

Dave

Here' the direct link to the pic

Lancer Hatch and Galant wagons have larger rear drums than the normal Galants and Lancers.
That would be why there are different parts.

Dave

There's some pretty decent rust repairs you've done there. Nice job

G'day Anthony, welcome to the forum.

It's a little quiet these days (due to things like Facebook), but there's still plenty of good info to be found here.

Dave.

Very nice Marty,

Loving the look of this, just a simple lowering job and nice set of wheels is all these need to make them look good

How far do you think you'll go with paint? Whole car, or just try to patch up and blend any repair areas?

Now this is an interesting build.
I've always thought a turbo diesel in an early Commodore would be a good swap also.

I'm guessing it goes alright with what's under the iceberg?

Dave...

Here's plenty of info one of the members of the page put together a while back.
It's all good info

Nice.
What are you plans for it?
Full rebuild or just drive it as it is?

Dave

Welcome to the forum Alejandro.

Do you have any photos of you car?

Dave

Hi 4G32stockboi, Sorry for the slow reply, I don't get on here as much as I used to. The secondaries on the solex carbs are controlled by vacuum. Your carb does not appear to have a vacuum chamber. I believe this is your problem. I'll have to have a dig around and see if I can find a complete standa...

Yep, looks the goods.
Will you be painting the bonnet scoop to macth the car?

I actually don't mind the look of that. Certainly more durable than rattle can paint too.

Dave.

There's an old school guy at Kotara and he has a Galant rally car with a 4G64 in it. His business is in behind Altapac. I'm trying to remember the name of his business, his name is Laurie, he's a good bloke and said hell look after SG members. 77galantv6 got some work done by him. I think the busine...

That front bar look pretty straight.

Somehow this slipped by me.
I see by the video you succeeded, did you have any problems at all, or was it smooth sailing?
How did you go on the day?

Dave...

You're after a centre out of a GE Scorpion auto, that's what I have in mine. It's around 3.55 or 3.6:1? Instead of the 3.89:1 in the Galants.

Probably easier to just get a complete wiring loom from one that hasn't been cut then to try and go through the harness trying to refit a fuse box to it.

Surely there are a few out there with a wiring harness from one they've stripped?

Very Nice, Glad you have it up and running again Charlie.

What's the final set up you settled with?
13b or 12a?

Nice rims BTW too.
Looks like 77galantv6 and I will need to go for a cruise with you soon.

Dave...

Although I can't help you with the info you seek, that's a tidy looking Lancer and sounds like a build worth watching.

This may help you with some info, but it wont help you with you turbo clearance issues.

Love the car, colour and wheel choice

Dave...

The red would depend on the final colour of the car but it's easy enough to change it if need be. Funny you say that. Ferg loves these rims and the colour of them, so much so, body colour choice has just been changed to accommodate them. I stopped in to look at them on the way home form work today....

Does anyone disagree that these are a good addition to this wagon? 14x6.5 +7 offset https://scontent-sea1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/14716315_10207948317925825_7921370352322500137_n.jpg?oh=f3af73faabf69ac4c9cd563baea9bfcf&oe=58A2721C Motivation has been found (prospective job that Ferg is applying ...

Thanks for sharing that link BACO13.
That is awesome.

Dave...

Did anything come of this?
