Backing plates / brakes

As Jonno said
I'd like the rear brakes and even complete subframe and trialling arms if it was possible ?
Can you pm me price etc ?
Any way they could be got to Gerard's place in Sydney ?
Thanks in anticipation !

EJ20t madness

If you are set on doing it then fair play to you. I have recently sold an MV ( to you Oz boys a Brumby) with EJ20t - dont get me wrong they are a total hoot to drive but also a money pit and frankly unless you are going to also do the brakes and stiffen the chassis and upgrade the suspension the lit...

This can be arranged very easily from this end - dont forget the UK holds the world patent on iron oxide, the dings and dents - how many and how deep would sir like ?:D

Howdy ! Just picked up on this thread from all the way round the otherside of the world in the UK !
I'm just about to implant an EJ22 and transmission into a 2" lifted MV (Brumby) which is sat on 15" rims.
Any chance you could post up some piccys of the engine bay and gearbox ?
Thanks !

:D A rare Finnish Long bed. These were locally 'streched'in Finland apparently so they got around local Finnsh tax laws.
Lada Samara headlamp conversion ( if you cant get parts then why not ?)
Lots of used parts availble in the UK my friend also please take a look on http://www.mvbrumbybrat.co.uk

Yes the parts would pack easily and safely onto a pallet, and I have facilitys here to do this. I am aware of a shipment heading to Perth docks at some point in the future and if things could be tied in then this would make for the perfect opportunity to get a quantity out to you guys and the econom...

Make it 2 - he has to bring one back for me ;) But seriously - I would be keen for a tailgate skin - we need to start a register and see who wants what and where in Oz they are to see how much they will cost. Do you have the UK price for them yet ?? Individual prices for the skins are £85 plus uk v...

According to http://www.mvbrumbybrat.co.uk information there are just 6 MK1 trucks remaining in the UK. Parts are probably rarer here than in Oz.

Guys - talk sweetly to Paul and Frog ;) The parts are all cast from moulds which have been made from spanking brand new ORIGINAL SUBARU panels so are visually identical. The thickness of course is bigger than the originals but this in no way hinders or spoils the fitting or looks once fitted. I'm mo...
