Hello all,
can anyone tell what other cars had the same clutch slave cylinder set up as the HD/HR. thanks awcallan

Can anyone tell me what the differnce, if any, between a commodore Salisbury 10 bolt diff and HQ era Salisbury 10 bolt diff is? Are the crown and pinion interchangable between the two? I have been on Holdenpaedia and there is some good info on there but cannot find the answer yet.

Im fitting a weber 34adm to a 202. I've had conflicting comments on wiring the auto choke and the run on solenoid. Is it 12v ignition to both or 6-8v to choke? And what is the best place to pick up the power, is the coil ok or a no no?

Thanks
Anthony

HI Everyone,

I need to change the sump gasket on my 202 (WB van) with the engine in car. How difficult is the job? I am no mechanic, just a learner, but I want to give it a crack myself

I couldn't find any old posts about this probably semi common task, I know you have to jack up the motor, but if someone could really spell the process out for me, I'd appreciate it alot

Cheers,

Luke

Hey all in S/E QLD, a driver that works for us came in today and said he saw some cardboard signs along the Warrego Hwy near Hattonvale with "Old Holdens / Fords Huge Garage Sale", anyone seen or hear about it? apparantly this weekend. Might be a a paddock stock clearance???

The posting earlier today asking about making panel beating tools got me thinking. What are the weird and wonderful tools people have made to get a job done on their old Holden?
I've shown a few of mine here.

The pic shows 4, starting top left is a drift that screws onto the subframe bolts on an old holden. This allows the bolt to be persuaded into place and easily work its way straight through the hole in the subframe and body.

Top right is a tool that allows me to remove and install the grille bars on the EH. It slips over the tangs on each bar and allows you to bend them.

Bottom left is a cheapy 1/2" AF spanner with a bend in it. This allowed me to get to the rear bumper bar outer mounting bolts without scratching the paint or the bar.

bored at work looking at pictures!

I was thinking 1972 (year of her birth) HQ ute or night welding course at TAFE. She wants a trip to the Melbourne cup this year which isn't all bad as obviously I get to partake as well. What are your thoughts?

Here's a pic of how my back seat worked out. Not bad for a back yardy (cheers Derek). Still trying to work out how to do gallaries and the like, but will try to load more soon. Cheers.
