Nice one Mark.
Sorry, I missed your loom question.
I would have a go yourself. Plan what you need, eg. additional lights,, before you build the loom so these can be added in.
You will find the Commo loom similar as Holden has not really changed wire colours since the globe was invented. I suspect you will end up with a Commo loom with some Tonner bits added. The big headache will be where to mount fuse boxes and relays as the Tonner had none of this. You may end up building the loom as you go along.
If the Commo has a QT enngine then its a 308 (not 304) out of a HQ,J,X or Z.

Thanks Jman! Is it possible to get new harness plugs? Some of them
On both cars seem a bit average.
I'm fairly sure its fine bits of glass they use Adam.
Their facebook page has heaaaps of cars and it removes everything! Without work hardening the metal

I just gave some (VS V6) engine and body looms to a mate as spares.
If you want them I'll see if I can get them back as you may be able to use some plugs/wires.

Blasting is well worth it just make sure you prime it straight away!!! Then jus grind off where you are going to be welding.
I stupidly did not. So I need it done again.

I'll see how i go Jase
Adam the dude coats it in a clear that stops it from rusting while you work on it he said its fine to undercoat/paint straight over. He said, water will affect it tho so to not let it get wet.
From that I'm assuming its waterbased.lol

Some primers will allow moisture to pass through and start surface rust under the paint.

Haha! dad put it their cause the extractors used to glow orange on idle in traffic and melt shit. So that little fan just pushes enough air to stop that.
Atleast i think that was it anyway.
