Great work guys, you are making some good progress here.
Thanks Craig been a slow month with all our other projects , but finally just put out a new vid on panel work
thanks for the message
The hq holden is one of my favourite holdens , but I have see the control arms torn out of the floor pans
@Grant Lucas
The Hq is one of ours aswell
You are talking about the rear upper arms I'm guessing. I can imagine in high hp car driven it is possible, although that area is reinforced from factory.
Hopefully we don't have issues with a more cruiser style build.
Thanks for commenting
You should give the HQ a HZ RTS upgrade
Definitely a great idea for improving the handling and stability of a hq.
There are some draw backs in doing so, one major one is the VIN that is stamped into the front subframe. As it is used to identify the car for things like registering the car, changing to an rts subframe from say a Hz would effectively turn a hq into a Hz as far as rego would be concerned. Yes the body has ID plates but the VIN is the primary identifier used.
It could realistically hurt value in what is a reasonably original one family owned hq premier.
Thanks for the comment
Great work. Do you have to replace the inner and outer sill panels. Also do a full video when you re-assemble the front suspension new bushes ect. Will help alot of guys doing rebuilds
hi matt at this stage it looks like inner sills are ok so wont need to replace the inners, and will be doing a full front end assembly vid for you guys should be coming up shortly as the car is moving along nicely thanks for the support
Nice work guys, what's the plan for the HQ once it's finished?
Hi Longship , possibly put it on the market and sell her :)
Great work guys, I was wondering did you give any consideration to check the chassis that it has not sagged inwards [ as they're notorious for that] and straighten it out before painting etc.?
Thanks for the question and info Barry.
With the low genuine 76000km on the clock and the unbelievably (for age) great condition of all the orignial body mounts, suspension bushes etc, while dismantling the car and inspecting everything we deemed everything to be more than serviceable.
Its a great bit of info and tip for dealing with restoring these models.
Good work mate, love watching your build, wish I could find another HQ sedan or wagon somewhere, it's almost impossible over here in the west. Keep up the awesome work!
Thanks BAD Q , yeah there getting rare and hard to find decent 1s also , and thanks for the support , glad our vids are getting enjoyed , HQ 1 tonner vid coming out shortly also , so keep an eye out for that :)
@@nexgenrevamp2976 Yeah even if a reasonably priced rust bucket comes up but not paying 15k + that they are wanting ha... Awesome keen to check that out nice one!
@@BADQ yeah there really getting up there on price and in crappy condition also . im always on the look out for decent old cars
good work guys, just found your channel, what paint stripper did you use for the panels? im stripping down my 82 WB and are up to the paint stripping stage so some help would be appreciated 👍 cant wait to see the finished result
Hi there mate.
To be honest I think it was just something ordered from a parts store (Repco perhaps). Nasty stuff though, I do remember would burn skin and eat clothes 100% gloves territory.
I do remember used the stripper to take off most then a lit of thinners to clean up panels afterwards.
Cheers for the question, will add anything if comes to mind.
Loving the videos! Keep it up 👍🏻
Hi Kylie , thanks for the support , hopefully have another 1 on the sedan next weekend . also have 1 on the hq 1 tonner coming out soon also
Hi Guys i definitely want to see the full rebuilt please as the HQ going to like amazing when finished
Hi Ricky , hopefully u have subscribed and will get notifications as the new vids go up . we cant wait either , im sure it will look amazing as we have a great crew working on it . Thanks for the comment
@@nexgenrevamp2976 yes i have subscribed to your channel awesome
Great episode, well done boys 👍🏻
By the way what is the music that you use in this episode? It sounds great.
Hi Big Al ,thanks mate , glad u liked it , its coming along well. the music link is in the description , thanks for the support :)
Loving the build as I’m currently about to start dismantling my HQ. When’s the next video on the build?
Hi Ibosh its been a lot of cutting and welding panels pretty boring stuff but will have a vid up soon showing that and also once installed , and possibly some paint prep
, glad your liking it thanks for the support :)
I don't know if it's possible to do with the original chassis rails but the Castlemaine Rod Shop have a rack and power steering arrangement on the chassis rails they make for HQ to WB.
Hi Kev thanks for that , we actually have a rod shop 1 on the black tonner we are doing , the vid should be up in a few days , and thanks for the message we appreciate all the ideas we can get
@@nexgenrevamp2976 With a rack and pinion steering, it wont be like driving the Queen Mary with the old steering box set up. With how I survived learning and getting my Ps in a HQ, it's a miracle I'm still around!
@@kevkoala hahah me too
I just finished restoring my HZ Premier after 5 intermittent years, don't have videos, have plenty photos, bit late to put then up i guess
hi jim , yes same thing happened to me with my hz sedan plenty of pics though . maybe make a picture vid to show how you did it
@@nexgenrevamp2976 Ill have to learn how
