    Hey mate. Andrew here. Awesome hack with the ratchet strap. The product is calling Car Builders door restore kit. I saw that you can get it from Repco and supercheap.
    Enjoy your weekend and have a good Christmas 👍

    When I do balancer I use an old belt wrap it around the balancer a couple times up onto water pump pulley it chokes the balancer and locks it works everytime

    You're very welcome bro, glad the oils come into good use rather than using it for my hair 😂😂😂 whoa amazing work on that balancer nut, that amazes me that way you did it but then again you and your rigging skills is top notch, very cool 🤙 hahah those march flies are bad at your place, glad I dont get them down here 🙃 spewing about that glass, must be from the sun? damn that sucks!

    VP auto and ECU won't interchange into VR. You might be able to work something out with auto if you use a manual ECU from VR but I think it's going to be complicated. Easier to source VR V8 loom and matching auto and go from there

    Good onya mate another cracking vid. Don't give up on the VT. A man of your talent can sort that out. I recently bought a vt calais V6 in pretty good nick for spares for my other vt calais. So they are out there. I did up a couple of years ago a LJ Torana 2 door that was in far worse nick then your mates golden nugget. And it now goes to shows and people can't believe how bad it once was. So don't give up on it. I have faith in you. Cheers 👍

      @downtheshedwithbyron I will definitely keep you in mind. I have 3 vt's including the one bought for spares. And they need a bit so if I've got anything left over I'll let you know. You should get Dan from vision trim to sort out that interior. I've known him for years. Tell him I said hello. He'll know me better as Scooter, Cheers.

    The actuators have been a huge problem on the commodores. I've replaced the ones in my blue ute twice & once on the white ute. Great job on the harmonic balancer. I've just bought an eBay plastic welder for a couple of jobs, so I'll see how that goes.
