noce work on the ute- now a build thread for the sedan ;)

This car is looking so good. Glad you guys got it on the road again. Well done!!! Have you made your own hard top for it? Love to see some pics of it. And how have the 12v hair dryer moters gone? work well? pass road worth easy enough?
Congrats again

yes we made a custom hardcover out of marine plywood, and are fiberglassing it to make it smooth and waterproof. its been cut to size and routered the edges, then we are going to paint it to match the body colour.
with the demister, we got a 12v demister/fan off ebay was $40 and it mounts up under the dash and isnt overly strong but works about the same as the standard heater box, but is alot smaller in size.
i work at windsor toyota and my foreman does blueslips, so just done everything that was needed to get it cleared and he passed it for us, so was easy


anyone have any ideas on the window?
and how to keep it captive in the regulator?
it fell out whilst wound up and just driving along today!

Nice work. Thanks for the info guys - im going down the 12v demister path so good to see it working and passing. You having a mate to sign things off would make life easy :)
This hard top sounds sweet.... Pics

dont have any pics of the hardcover yet, still inprogress. we have cut it out and routered it now just have to fibreglass it. will post pics when we have some progress

Looks AWESOME !!! Love what you have done with it !! Well done !

was the blueslip on the 12 v demister legit or???? pm me an answer if your not comfortable posting- i might do dame but mount them in the stock housing- i just dont want leaks again from heater cores
