Where is Harold
I was following the Harold Saga with some interest,
Suddenly his rebirth has come to a stand still ?

Probably gone to scare the crap out of other T3 owners at the traffic lights .

Sorry guys haha.
I have just come back from an overseas trip. Before I left I did have time to do a trip in Harold though!
We went up to Mansfield and Mt Buller for the weekend to watch Targa High Country rally, it was epic fun!

Car drove perfectly fine, was very good on fuel and the gear ratio wasn't too bad. Still a bit to work on though. Overall did 300km as a test for motor. We also noticed that once the exhaust settled in, it was actually annoying loud. So I might add another resonator to make it more drone-less.

I took some pretty cool shots, but the only one on my phone at the moment is this one.

Hey George, I take it, you got the engine gremlins sorted. Looks like you have a new set of feet on her as well?

On a side note, a mate bought a T3 recently, rang me after he got it home complaining there was no temp gauge. Reminded him, has an air cooled model. he said, i,ll be f###ed, would never have known!

Thanks everyone

Not quite all the gremlins, but enough for him to run efficiently at the moment.
Yep had to get larger tyres/rims to get the gear ratio a bit better, its also a lot more comfy now hehe.

Haha yep, the first T3s up to late '84 I think were air cooled. They hold value pretty well at the moment and I'm sure will continue to rise over the water cooled T3's.

Fantastic build thread. I've done the EJ25 conversion into my T3, however it seems I'm too much of a VW purist (plus I really don't like the Subaru sound much) so I'm seriously considering a 1.8T conversion later this year.
