73 ex army fitted with a safari roofed hard top 70,000KM.
I took it in for a roadworthy certificate and the mechanic said it will need 2 tie rod end soon (not now
), other than that it is in great shape.
it drives really well.
OK now that I have one is someone going to show me the "secret hand shake"

Secret 'handshake' apparently involves a 200l drum of vaseline.
Mickrangie may be more able to provide info on what happens next; as it appears he funds RR reno's this way.

It's a 6, but I know not it's capacity.
Yours looks great.

If it isn't a holden motor, then it is probably the 2.6L IOE (inlet over exhaust - i.e. side exhaust valve) engine.
Goes slightly better than a 4cyl, drinks like a v8, and eats exhaust valves for lunch (unless you reset the clearances each service).
Only upside is the carby on them works at any angle.

too late Pete I know, now lets negotiate on keeping it a secret
So is it going to stay as a vehicle for the job or will it get a buildup after wards? I may be interested in it after the job if it is still in one piece if you aren't going to do anything with it.

I would expect it will go into storage for the sequel, once we remove the zombie blood and guts, clean up after the lesbian scene and wash the chainsaw, then it will be ready to do it all again.
