Default Hi Scott

Hi, sounds like you got really lucky on your 68, makes life much easier when you don't have to deal with a bunch of old repairs or panel replacement. I'm waiting on a Strange 9 inch housing, I would have gone with a 12 bolt but there hard to find here as I reckon you'd know. mine had a CPP big brake kit on it when I got it so I'm sticking with that, but there seem to be a heap of other options available, I think a lot of the guys on the forums here use late model Corvette stuff if I'm not mistaken, I had no real problems with compliance, just seat belts and lights, roadworthy, well the guy wasn't overly thorough shall we say.😊but I have kept rego on the car while it's been off the road, I'm not sure what I'll do about mod plates or engineers reports and stuff in the longer term. Just back on the brakes again, post a thread and ask for suggestions or recommendations and these guy's will steer you in the right direction. Cheers mate.

Default Thanks Scott

Thanks Scott. Better get that build thread started mate hey!!! I'm really very curious to learn more about your 68 and what you've got planned for her. When you get time of course, not at the expense of getting things done on the car. Cheers Mate.

Yes Mate, it certainly will. As much as I'm impatient to get the bigger jobs out of the way, I'm thinking about putting a bit of the bling on the little girl. I think that's not only going to be at least a little productive, but should make for an enjoyable weekend also. Thank's for the encouragement too Tony. Appreciate it mate. Cheers Trevor.

Yeah they are a bit scarce aren't they. Hard to go wrong with Strange but. Looking forward to some pictures upon arrival.

Thanks mate. Good luck with your build, I've subscribed so I'll be keeping an eye on progress.

Cheers, Scotty
