God that Belmont was ordered originally with nothing. I love a good old 3-on-the-tree! I reckon that motor will go well but I recommend it to be pulled out & have a good going over. Brakes, I'd upgrade to discs definitely. A lot of welding to be done. Make sure you check the chassis just going back from the front wheels as that's the part of the chassis that goes first. Holden HT's were built from May 1969-July 1970 so it's as old as me.

@@downtheshedwithbyron It should be possible but maybe replace the braking system with one from a Commodore. I'd start asking your mates in the area if they have any spare engine parts available. I haven't done anything to my 2 VY utes for a while but i've been working on my mates VE ute. Today it's caliper painting.

Pedders has helped us out with replacing parts for the brake so its cheap and i wont the big fella to learn drum brake then we can do a conversion later. The latest on commodores helped a mate with the vy replace the radiator and i sorted out the cooling system on the vr calais video out today Got a oil sample kit to teat the vy wagon engine which i think will be a cool video And been playing with derby cars haha

@@downtheshedwithbyron We've been dispelling the myths associated with the VE's LY7 V6 Alloytec which is actually a good engine. Not as much low end torque as the Ecotec. We've swapped the 20 inch rims back to 18's, I've organised a mate in Port Macquarie to repaint the hardlid & bonnet & today since it's sunny we're painting the brake calipers.
