hey kirk id say you cant see much of the motor anyway. with the 283 chev beddie i owned the only thing you could see when you lifted the engine cover was the air cleaner.. not much good for taking photos..

Hmmm..... Check my Gallery, with the cover off you can see the whole thing, and you can always take the air cleaner off. A couple off photos from just under the doors and you can see the rest.

I'm curious why if he has had the bearings changed in the diff why it needs new seals ???
Title: Re: CFs for sale December o8
Post by: ben on December 15, 2008, 06:31:41 PM
i thought he ment seals in the wheel cylinders.. but that was just what came to mind.

sounds a bit suss aye ... maybe hes referring to a seal like barking sound coming from the diff  when driving the van ???

AGREED here's my question, love the standard grille but have got a XC gs twin head light grille to put in, which way to go???
Title: Re: CFs for sale December o8
Post by: BlackBedford on December 20, 2008, 07:25:15 PM
G'day

The concern I have about the XC grille is that they are getting old and brittle. My grille has a few holes from stones and many cracks. I am planning on pulling it out and putting back to semi-standard.
I have scored a Chevy style bonnet (no centre rib) and I will be removing the centre bar from the grille and using a mesh.

Regards
Chris

im playing around with a hk holden grill, you can use the twin headlight surround from the premier model if you are a fan of the round headlights  they are chrome and look great polished and its still GM cheers
Title: Re: CFs for sale December o8
Post by: ben on December 21, 2008, 06:51:39 AM
i thought i might have a go at recreating the xc grill in fibreglass.. would be a winner ay!

How about this for an idea.

it would need a bit of playing around to get the design right and the latch but would be cool.

Ben why not try doing a bonnet and grill in one.

that way when you lift the bonnet it gives you extra access to the radiator etc.

you would have to make it so it was just the centre section  of the grill leaving the headlights in place

Im not sure if its relevant, but i have been thinking about this, as i have been watching so many of those restoration shows on foxtel.....i would love to try and get a front end with that old muscle car look from the old american type fronts, you know a point at the front (nothing out landish) with alot of chrome....i dont know how to do it, but theoretically id just attach a piece to the bonnet that kinda made it look like a beak....like a birds beak???
