It's been quite a journey.

I like the sleeper look. All white outside, all red inside.

how did u fit the webers...i have the same manifold like you but i think you need to remove the brake cable that goes to the brake booster...i think it would be better if the cable was from the inside..

PS. when are you going sandown i want to see u and ur beast,

Peter Jones - is your GTI and south african import?

looks very similar to my old one. Be sure to clean out the inside lower front quarters and the rear hatch is very rust prone on the SA imports.

Nope, It's an Aussie delivered '79 GLD. It had a petrol conversion already when I got it. The GTI badges came with it too .

Umm, What cable? The hose? There's a casting on the side of the No.4 runner to connect the booster vacuum hose to. Works fine for me.

Perhaps you mean the clutch cable? I'm using a diesel one which turns 90° at the firewall.

Next outing will probably be Phillip Island in February. I'll let everyone know when I'm headed out again.

Cheers,

Pete
