Is any of this any use to anyone? Got to make some room to get in the door to a project so I can start it! All of this museum collection is in Diamond Harbour. Delta's rego is on hold and the mostly hidden bigger van is a 1975 Toyota Hiace.
Also have an old Rolls Royce Silver Cloud II that will possibly be up for grabs in a few months. Was a daily driver but shes been off the road for approx 6 years, rego is on hold. I haven't given it a good going over in a long time but pretty sure its fairly rust free. PM me if you are interested in that.
Also have a Subaru Leone that has to go but its going to have to be taken out on its side as its kind of behind a bus and a house...going to leave that one till last! They make pretty good paddock bashers.

Is that an old hiace van as well, if so it'll have a 5:29 diff in it, racing guys want them they're worth good coin and rare as hell , pull the complete rear end out of it and chuck it on trademe, biff the rest of the hiace though I would be interested in looking at the boat parts including the jet unit
Hey. I've had a few PM's about the boat to so highest tender will get it. I'm heading over this weekend so I will take a few better photos, check out the reg status of the trailer, make sure I can't poke holes in it and then will let you all know. If anyone interested is wanting/able to view it this Saturday or Sunday (Its in Diamond Harbour) they are more than welcome to.

G142 diff =( According to google thats a 4.875 open. Will pull the head if I get time.
I'm kinda of glad I'm not pulling the rear end out while its on the trailer though haha.
Also, had a nosey at the jet unit today as a neighbor came in and asked about it. The shaft seems to be seized so it will need a bit of work. I will get a picture of it tomorrow otherwise what other physical info about do you want?

Here are a couple more shots of the boat for those who asked. Needs a bit of work but is mostly sound. Trailer needs two new tyres and is pretty rusty. A guy up the road who restores older boats is pretty keen on it as he reckons there isn't many of this shape around any more and he thinks its repairable/cleanerupaerable.
I was a bit to busy to pull the cover off and actually climb in, but the floor was looking really good. The back wall will def need replacing though. I don't know any history about the motor sorry so just assume its poked.
