SOMETHING TO DO WHEN I'M NOT PLAYING WITH OLD RADIOS.........


Some days I used to look at the radio repair bench and say "I might need a change...or a holiday"! To get this to actually happen I recently purchased the Ute below.  Basically it is a model HK, 1968 Belmont, made in Perth, factory six cyclinder auto.  It now has a 350 four bolt Chev (1976 Police Engine), with Powerglide transmission and trusty 9" rear end, disc brake front end. The motor is warmed up but this will go back to standard, I want a cruisy ride, not a drag racer.  The rear end has 4.11 gears, soon to be changed to 2.75 for highway use. The body is a basket case but over time I'll whip it into shape.  New pictures will be uploaded as I progress. First job is to buy or build a rotisserie. Wish me luck! 
If you have any bits to suit the old girl, please feel free to send me an email.
