No, thought it was labour weekend! My club membership must have expired because I have stopped getting the newsletter. I better rejoin.
Have a few vehicles interested from up this way for the next one.
What area will it be in this time?
Zukfest will be based in Reefton again not sure on what tracks we will be doing
but there are plenty to choose from,lots of grade 5 tracks which are the best fun. The suzuki club is still only $30.00 a year membership.
Cheers Woody.
Had alot of trouble trying to fit the body around the engine without cutting it. The steering shaft and brake booster were hitting the engine and the body was sitting about 200mm too far back which made it not line up in the wheel arches.
So we cut the fire wall out and now its sitting pretty good.
Top is standard 1UZ engine mounts and bottom are custom ones using the Prado rubbers:
Engine in place. Had to extend the gearbox crossmember a little as well:
