What an epic car! I really loved it when specip3 owned it and still love it! Jealous as!
As for the tank, I think the earlier ones had the access cover on the sides, and later models from the top. Could be wrong

Very early ones with the ugly rear panel also had the tanks with the side fitting,parts left over from the 1975 Euro production.As the Australian cars were assembled from tkd parts sent from Germany.The build quality was extremely poor and had lots of issues so any surviving 76 LS cars are a treasure today,so look after them.Info direct from the father in law as I wasn't even born that long ago.
Eri's certainly looks great .
Nice car! what is the steering wheel off if you don't mind me asking
:) Yes it is a great car and I enjoy every minute of driving it!Quote:

And here she is ready for her inspection thismorning. Bit of rust in the passenger floor so dont know if it will pass or not...we will see! The height of the front is dreadful makes it look like a monster truck or something.

I have asked transport tasmania to give me a week or so to fix them so we will see what they say.
Awesome project.
