Yes it is a Desert Cooler. How did you go geting a radiator hose for yours. I had to get a genuine one (70 something bucks) and it was still too short so I put that filter in the line to lengthen it

Nice colour you chose there, looks great. Where did you get the chevy badge you have on the front grille from?

When i changed from small block to big block i was able to use the same top radiator hose, not sure if it is an original one. An adjustable water neck helped though.

Anthony at Classic American Restorations. They are in Dry Creek a suburb of Adelaide but theyre moving further out to One Tree Hill. Yes theyre the original wipers. He does nice work, his workshop is always full of good stuff. He also hides a VH44 brake booster inside the gaurd. We can only keep them left hook here as long as theyre completely stock standard. If you want to modify, it has to be right hand drive. Originally I wanted red indicators. If it was stock and left hand drive I could have them, right hand drive I have to have amber. Figure that one out!

Outlaw Speed Shop. Theyre bent in the middle too so they fit the grill really nice. Very nice engine bay you have there. Drool.

With my luck I was probably just sold the wrong one. It did fit my other manifold where the thermo housing was to one side but the Performer RPM has it in the centre.

Notice you have a orange (indicator ?) lamp under the back bumper. Is this attached to the bumper ?

It bolts on through an existing hole in the bumper. When its at ground level you can hardly notice them but its what I had to do to get it through rego. I wanted red indicators but thats not allowed if its right hand drive.
