New Year

Ok starting off the new year with a couple hours work on the Madman. Nothing special on the to do list.. so here goes.


Windscreen out, bonnet off - all on my own as well!



I saw this rust early in the piece, it's good to actually get access to it now.



Couldn't get around to removing the front, that'll be next job.





Finally got the tailgate off. Top was original, but rusted to hell. Bottom is in good condition, but a repro.

I'd like to identify the purpose of this hole and bevel. I'll ask the experts.

Original colour showing through - can't wait for the blasting process.

Ok, started removing the LPG gear and things got messy.

The carby will need a good clean up don't you think?





Just below the cowl, anyone know what these holes are for?

  1. Lots of work ahead of you but its looking good, the hole above the rear numberplate is where you put the jack handle in to lower the spare wheel, and the holes in the cowl arnt for anything i dont think, the ones on my original HZ ute were just covered up with a piece of tape.. Good luck!!
