well correct, but I'd imagine the car manufacturers would order extra quantities of the parts bin's stock then needed for production line fitment, intended for spare parts supply. Don;t forget that there are alot of outside companies making bits and pieces like say heater ducts or door mouldings and not all of these companies keep making these items or go out of business etc. that's why (apart from lack of demand) thats why alot of the parts are NLA (No Longer Available, so no one has to ask that one either ;) hopefully rare spares will see the light and start making the hard to find jap parts soon.. crazy if they don't really.

apparently this stuff is the bomb. apparently one of our nation's foremost hotrod builders swears by it (bar a pit of molasses) but if that ain;t practical for ya..

Hey alright... here's the offer. As I want to get rid of everything in one hit
I will offer the following : the 4 1000 12" wheels with 95% tyres. the good 1000 spare wheel well. The 1000 wagon tailshaft. and I'll even throw in a datsun 1000 grille badge and some original 1000 brochures if anyone wants them. $50 the lot.

i know you can get it at toolmart in WA, it's expensive (about $20 a can) but well worth it over WD40 and the like...

cool!
see you guys next sunday!
just PM me whoever can make it to pick me up.
too easy
T. S.

try belting a slightly smaller socket onto it, especially if you have already done a good job rounding it :) .. have you tried a little bit of heat with an oxy or a one of those bernzomatic butane burners? tried pouring penetrene on it liberally for a few nights prior to undoing it? also wurth do this spray that has penetrating oil combined with a freezing compound call rost-off which not many people know about but really helps. one of those metre long torsion bars really come in handy for doing jobs like this.

get one of those u-shaped water pipe benders that plumbers use. these are also handy for small adjustments when the job is almost finished : http://www.aeroflowperformance.com/im ... ht_weight_tube_bender.jpg

lol I thought it was Greenwood in Perth! was going dang, how did I miss that??" ;)

Cool, hope to see you guys there. cheers for that nigel.Also Reuben, I'm trying to arrange a lift up to Toodyay for the Targa thing if you don't mind an extra bod or two.. hey do you know what happened to the 1000's I sold you?

cool! so does anyone have a free seat for this? I don't mind chucking in some bucks for fuel.. live in freo, but can meet anywhere near a bus / train station. cheers ;)
