One of the most stylish trucks ever built, IMHO. The 6 was reliable and bullet-proof, but slow and thirsty. The brakes??? Hmmmm. Small-block Chev swap, every time.
@@Michaelalsoporchard One of the nicest looking vehicles produce by UK GM -Vauxhall, along with the PA model Velox/Cresta, and maybe the FD Victor/Ventora.
We also just put some welsh plugs in it because they were leaking like a siv. We are gonna send the water pump away to be refurbished as well. When all that’s done, gotta fix brakes and then onto cosmetic work
@@Michaelalsoporchard Did you find it? They're bloody expensive to fix - e.g. in 1994, it was over NZ$700.00. It was worth it, as it was one of the last of the line, and was in super-good condition. They're also rather awful to remove the rear brake drums from - there is a special Sykes-Pickavant puller than gets it done in seconds flat. Nothing else seems to work, apart from a gas-axe. This has drawbacks...
