Brumby rebuild

Post by coops » Thu Aug 30, 2007 9:52 pm

I have been watching this forum for some time while I have been rebuilding my brumby. Its a 90 model targa now with a 2' lift and a 3.9 L series 5 speed box. I hope the photos I am trying to post work ok and I have never done it before. I will only post a couple from earler in the year and post so more later

I am going to get it on the road with the standard engine. A friend with a series 3 liberty is doing a twin turbo conversion at the moment so I am buying his old ej22 and all the bits he doesnt need. So it should go ok with that in it.

Post by coops » Sat Sep 15, 2007 10:36 pm

Its on the road. Came up ok. there are a couple things I am not happy with. the cheap ebay from struts are **** and the gear shift on the l series box will need some work. Next mod will be a ej22 that I will pick up next weekend.

hey beautiful car! I love the black and blue combination...

I saw a very similar Brumby at a caravan park today,
Black tint windows, black rims - umm sunraysia i think, and blue body colour, also had no tailgate? haha it had no cool 'sun on the roof' mechanisms though.

Hey mate nice looking brumby!

just a couple of questions, what are the seats out of that you have in there, and are those wheels 14 or 15 inch?

Cheers Tim
