Like it! that cream colour will look great.

Hi Nicki, welcome. I'm new and a woman as well Nice to have another female amongst all the menfolk.

That's a nice Sigma you have there, very neat and tidy.

Mine is about 8 hours out of whack cos I'm too lazy to fix it

I think the general consensus is that it's technically good, but just not aesthetically our cup of tea. It's like art, nothing define's what is 'good' other than whether people like it. I can appreciate the time and effort that has gone into it. I don't like it, but there again like a previous poste...

Experience with motors? Pretty bloody good.... for a 28 year old woman, lol. In other words kinda limited. Dad is an ex mechanic and I used to pull my Gemini to bits as a teenager to fix it. I can replace a rocker cover gasket with my eyes shut, do a service, check timing etc. I assisted pulling the...

Looks wicked Wheels are nice.

Excellent, thanks Dave. I'll pull the rocker cover off and have look tomorrow.

Who welded the valves up for you? Did you need to take it somewhere? I've never touched a welder in my life.

http://i865.photobucket.com/albums/ab220/sage_030/_IGP3959.jpg There you go, is that the right bit? I tried to get the manifold and the front of the timing cover in the same shot. I'm hoping it is an import, the more power the better cos it's pretty freaking slow. After the mechanic tinkered with i...

Can I see a pic of the exhaust manifold?

I'll show you mine if you show me yours ;)

Will go take a picture.

I've noticed a few of you in Perth. Can you tell me if there are any places to get bits for Galants? I'm in need of two hubcaps. (One missing, on dented) One of the rear seat belt adjuster latches got broken yesterday as well, is there a bog standard universal replacement or do I need to source one?...

That's hideous. And hilarious. As others sais, it looks *neat*, but neat don't always mean pretty Grille is horrific!

That's freaking awesome! Looks great. Have to agree, the bonnet thing is over the top, it's too big. I'd just leave it be tbh.

That mess of wiring was pretty out there.

The grille in that thread ^^ looks a lot better. I might have a crack at doing something to mine. This is the motor. Can you tell me what it is? http://i865.photobucket.com/albums/ab220/sage_030/_IGP3948.jpg I had a mechanic look over it the other day and he had a little fiddle with the carby (secon...

Cool, thanks for that. I know it's a belt drive so it must be a later motor. Aside from that charcoal jar I haven't noticed any other pollution gear. I'll stick a pic up when I can. I'll clean it first too, the engine has been left in a shameful condition

Thanks for the welcome :) At the moment my plan is to just tidy it up and make it faster. I have limited funds to throw at this thing (don't we all?) so I need to be able to learn to do most of it myself. I wouldn't say no to a different grille though.... geez it's ugly. http://i865.photobucket.com/...

I know this is an old thread, but did you ever work out where the extra line was meant to go? I have this same thing, bit of fuel line with a bolt clamped in it, I've been wondering what's up with it too.

Hi all, I've just acquired a new car, a 1977 GD Galant. I love it. Needs a little fine tuning but it's essentially ok, one previous owner and pretty well maintained. I'd like it to go a bit faster but need to get it running shmick before doing anything too serious. I'm hoping to pick up some tips he...
