Does this mean the 25 in the RA25 or TA25, mean that the interior was the same as the TA22, and the 28 in the RA28 was the newer interior.

The 25 is the body code, check out this site and it will explain all

Cheers Neil it all makes sense now.

I'd just like to say how jelous I am of your car!

I'm one of those annoying people who've put RA25 tail lights on an RA28

Oh and I'd sleep in a cardboard box before selling an RA25 for the deposit on a house.

So would I, it made it easy to justify the purchase when I thought about it like that though

Getting a wee bit excited. The ship docked and unloaded today. So it should be clear of customs in the next day or 2

good luck. Aus customs took their sweet as time when i had stuffed.

So um... This just happened...



Got it into the carpark after putting some fuel in and giving her a jump start. New shoes already fitted up. Needs a bath though.

Hello, what a find! What a pretty car, congratulations! Please tell us what you paid for it. Christmas doesn't get any better than this!........mike

Hello, also, you say you sourced a bumper. Might you have a source for more? Again, car is awesome!...mike

Thanks

The bumpers were sourced in Japan on Yahoo Auctions. You can use a bidding & freight forwarding service such as Nengun to purchase items from Yahoo Auctions and they will forward everything to your address.
I've used Nengun a bunch of times and they're always extremely helpful.

Finally all rego'd up on Historic plates (I got the Ducati Mach 1 done at the same time)

It still needs a tune, some brake pads and the chrome bumper mounted up but at least I can legally drive it to the mechanics etc now. I'm also going to put a set of T3 coilovers in the front and some lowered springs and shocks in the rear to bring the ride height down a little.

When you do the struts use a different set to the ones in the car so you can return the car to original again. Worth a lot more in original condition.

Yep, thats the plan. Going to use T3 coilovers up front and the Camaro/Black Magic setup in the rear so I can reverse things if need be.

Finally feel like I'm making some progress.

New T3 coilovers in the front, shortened camaro AGX's and black magic springs in the rear. Running 275/175 springs.
NOS bumper installed and (temporary fibreglass) filler panel painted and fitted (although both need some tweaking)
Carb issue sorted (diaphragms in the pumps were in upside down?!?!!) and she's beautiful to drive!

World's shittiest photo's, but you get the idea.
