Ebay score $0.99 + 8.00 shipping oem turbo emblem, straight from Oz.

The seller included a free green bug with my purchase.

It flew out of the package when I opened it.


manifold and turbo installed-

The turbo 4an oil feed line I purchased is a tad too long, I need to clamp it to the fender liner.

I now have a turbo 3b. Hooray!

 

[cruiserjunktion]

hub caps, shroud and air cleaner painted- hammered black

Grill installed.

I still have some "plumbing" to do

 

[cruiserjunktion]

custom turbo intake

 

[cruiserjunktion]

got a ps pump from lowtideride......

he also sent along a few chips off the old v wag ..... ie souvenirs




THX AL


I will be replacing all the seals and scrubbing the pump before installing.

 

[FL cruiser]

Did Al do the custom paint on the resevoir before giving it to you?

 

[Tofudebeest]

That would be his style. Gonna paint the diesel emblem and line it up with the turbo emblem?

This build is looking so nice man. You're getting so close.

Did I give you back your white wheel?

 

[lowtideride]

Glad the pump made it a ok.... Bummer the paint got smudged

 

[cruiserjunktion]

grill

Gonna paint the diesel emblem and line it up with the turbo emblem?

Nah, the grill is finished.

The diesel emblem was painted to blend in with the grill.

It is hidden under a chrome bar and disappears unless you really look for it.

I used the oem brackets to mount turbo emblem.........

I didn't plan on using 2 emblems, but I am happy with the results.

After the new to me roo basher goes on, you prob won't see either.


I would still like the white wheel, among other bits, if you have it.

Nice looking turbo-diesel! We'll have to drag race sometime...

 

[Tapage]

Your adapter plate for Garrett it's simple awesome ..

 

[cruiserjunktion]

Did Al do the custom paint on the resevoir before giving it to you?

Yeah, it is a nfc custom piece.....

Oddly enough, he painted MM on the back of the reservoir where it can not be seen.

 

[lowtideride]

Lookin great man...When are you planning on coming to pick up the ARB? Making it this Saturday?

 

[cruiserjunktion]

Frank has removed most of the harness from the cab.

I mounted the shroud and finished plumbing the turbo.

All the rubber pieces used to plumb the turbo were cut from oem bj60 intake tube.

I still need to clamp it all together and install the fan.

 

[lowtideride]

Looks awesome man...



Shoot me a PM with your Addy...I have something I want to send you.

P.S.

You should at least throw one pic of the carnage up from this weekend.

 

[cruiserjunktion]

The N. Fla Cruiserheads took me wheeling over the weekend.

Without a rig, I was the 3rd wheeler.

Check it out......

Carnage was wide spread Dec 15 (trip report and Pictures)

This 40th 80 was one of the nicest Cruisers I have seen.

 

[Tofudebeest]

The cheese lookes like it rolled (2nd photo)...I gotta check that link.

As always, Steve pushes it hard (last photo).

Edit: Saw the photos of Al's snapped axles. I can't believe those are 60 axles, snapped like twigs. And I thought Steve pushed it hard...

Damn. Wish I had been there.

Impressive build so far

Btw. there are 2 more oil feed locations on the otherside of the oil filter... no need to T the sender.
