Sorry I haven't replied earlier. Yes, parts are hard to get over here. This one I bought was made for the Uk (right hand drive) and not something you see on the roads too often here.

I have managed to find a UK based dealer who buys from the USA and Canada, and parts arrive at the door in 5 workin days. Not bad.

I'll post some pics soon and see if theres any modification changes made as to use in this country.
Thanks for the welcome.

G'day, good to see someone from across the pond. Your lucky to have a dealer to get your parts through. Try owning a '60's vintage American made car in Europe. Not only do you get soaked for the part, the shipping will soak you to with no dealer to help get'em there.

Yep parts for rare stuff over here, make you want to jack it all in.
But if its worth keeping, its worth putting you hand in ya pocket.
The size of the engine running on lpg makes it alot more interesting.
And if it gets heaps more mpg, Im laughing.

Oh and thanks for the welcoming guys.
