Post by Flatoz »

title asks it all,

For me I will be in Queersland, brisvegas to be exact, so is anything on up there next week?

Anyhoo

Hope everyone has a good break and try to keep the toll down.

Pick a chassis from my graveyard for my project.

I'll be at the Easternats at Sandown.
Just about finished bolting the blower onto the commodore, just waiting for Paul Rogers to finish the maching of the top pulley so I can finish it off.

I'll keep an eye out for you.

Just got back to civilization after a week overseas in S.A. so the rest of the weekend will most likely be spent at home doing family stuff.

However, I do recall a commitment to take a certain Lexus powered pickemup truck to Ballarat on Sunday in order to silence one or two critics of said engine as a hot rod powerplant. :wink:

Last W/E of my holidays,giving the bodywork on the 38 Chev pu project a rest,whipping out the L300 f/e and wheeling the Jag F/e under for a looksee looks very promising.To all, have a safe Easter.............Frank.

Frank, let me know if I can help with Jag parts. Just scoured me job at JAGAYRE in Clayton playing with all kinds of prestige stuff. :lol: JAGAYRE sells & buys & repairs Jags as well as wrecks them & the boys there have heaps of stock. Was checking out Jag front & rear ends only last night. Will give you a much better ride than Holden or L300.
See Ya. Paul.

Thanks Paul,I have the front and rearends,my son is a mechanic who works on Jags,and scored me a S1 with a seized Chev350 ,I have need of a taller diff centre than the 4.54 gears I have at the moment,Jagayre did give me the best price when I was hunting around for a 3.07 or similar centre,so I will be down there within the next 2mths to do a purchase,I will say hello.The rearend looks to be a nice fit to the 38 Chev Chassis,but I was reluctant to fit this first,until the front end fit was viable.I have to mod the chassis front horns to take the stock Jag horizontal bolts,my existing engine tube also needs a forward shift to clear the steering pinion.................Frank.

Should be an improvement on the ride quality. If the '38 chassis is anything like the '36 Chev chassis you will even be able to use the stock factory Jag mountings.
Yeah. I've changed my signature. The old one was out of date...
