My name's Brent. I'm from Aotearoa, The land of the long white cloud.
Some call it middle earth, others call it New Zealand.
I have been sifiting round here for the last few months.
I'm the proud owner of a 320/6. It's just come out of the panel shop and was painted Matt black when I got it . Not it's final colour but it looks ok. It also needs more rust work as it looks like they only fixed the panel work and did not look at the floors.
The plan is e28 rear end with lsd, m50/52 conversion. E24 front hubs running Holden commodore calipers and rotors, fortune 500 coil overs. I have all the bits listed above as well as a 323 rusty parts car. (All but the Holden parts .But they are every where here.
I'm currently saving for a zf 5 speed and drive shaft to suit .I know this will need to be shortened.
These cars are incredably rare in nz. I have been told that when new they were double the price of a escort, or a viva, or a corolla. So there were not many of them and there is not as much of a nostalaga following as EVERY one in nz knows some one that has had a hot escort or cortina, bigger following for rally cars here as well.
Oh well I guess I will be seeing you all around.
The donor is repairable but it would be a massive amount of work . Every panel has bog. accedent repairs behind the drivers door .It's been resprayed x3 times. There are lots of rust repairs where the rust was ground out and pooed up. Sills are completely gone lights are gone, guards,doors, lh floor, the boot lip has had a repair that leaves Mich to be desired and nis an indication to the quality of the restof the work .
