Aussie army paint is easy to get hold of. Walk into a Protec paint store and ask for 342-1166 Camouflage Green. They don't mix it on site so they might have to order it in. Costs $48 for a 4l can or something like that.
Comes out like this, colour is a bit wrong for NATO green but would still look tits.
Spec sheet here if you want to be impressed.

I nearly bought this (considered it over yank muscle) then saw Uncle had it up on Facebook. Cunt.

Years ago I looked at one that was similar...the reciept folder had a load of big ticket repairs including a full rebuild of the fuel injection system....whch was interesting given it had carbys.

Boy there's a lot of threads on here lately about cars I want that I could have bought for what I have spent on my conversion.
Sad panda.
Nice buying Uncle.

Clayton you can buy it off me later and fit your V12 to it.
P.s can a mod move this to street cars so we can talk shit without whoring up the main page.

To be honest uncle I would have had to borrow a portion of the money; not something I am keen to do right now. There will be other cars. Congratulations on the Porka you will enjoy it I'm sure.

Secretly I want this to work out well so it gives me the courage to buy something similar.

PF porsche cruise
Yeah I am going on a Porsche cruise this Friday. Its 1,886klm long. It even has a boat section!
I would carry a fanbelt for the trip back-- I doubt the local holden/tractor/banjo dealer in nowheresville will have one in stock.

Unfortunately I fly out tomorrow so thats out. Might grab one in Melbourne as I pass though.
Although thinking about it just a V-belt. I might see if i can dig up a length for it.

It *should* come with one in the standard toolkit...

The belt or the special tool for holding the top pulley when undoing the nut?

Buying an old Porsche without the same amount of money in the bank - doing it wrong.

I think it's a GT3

That equation only holds true if you pay more than $50k for the car.
