HQ Belmont Panelvan Rebuild

[hogvan]

Sweet ride, love the wheels and LS1, is that a HQ quad headlight front or later model, did you paint under the body whilst you had the chassis out from under it? great work so far well done

Thanks mate, the front is off a hq stato, I wire wheeled the underbody to bare metal and used kbs rust seal then a thick layer of body deadener. I have heaps more pics.

Ahhh thought so. How do you find it...sturdy enough? I had one supporting a BBC & T400 and was very underwhelmed with it. Maybe it didn't like the extra weight of said engine & trans.

Great pics....thanks for sharing

Convo pros are a great wheel choice for HQs

I haven't test driven her yet but it seems like it's well constructed, the ls motor would be a far whack lighter then a BBC so hopefully it doesn't bounce round under there

Is that other motor you have sitting in the shed a 308 and for sale by chance?

Sorry mate sold it, was a 253 from a papaya vh commo, my project took a different direction.
