Hey guys,

I know it's not Bellett related but it's Isuzu and becoming very hard to find so figured this was the right place to ask :)

I've just picked up a long wheel base, 1980 Isuzu KB Diesel that sat in a paddock for 20 years... The frame is good, the motor seems to be OK, although I have to rebuild the diesel pump which is a pain...

The tray is shot which doesn't bother me but the bonnet has fallen apart which does bother me.

Does anyone have a KB sitting in a paddock somewhere that I can pinch the bonnet from? This car is white but as you can see from the pic, there is not much white left on that bonnet!

Thanks guys,
Ross.

you new breed belletters are unbelievable you want something you ask and if you have it you ''give'' it... with that attitude the belletts /wasps etc will survive ..when you chase a part and you know they are out there in drawers or sheds and you get nothing from the plea you become dissalusioned with the attempt to put ''your'' car back on the road the hoarders will hoard till they die and as so many times those hoarded parts are ''tipped'' sad as it is lets start sharing the ''bits'' lets get all our cars on the road .....correct me if I am wrong I just sold and gave away some rare bits /magazines ......hopefully you will .....will you ???

Call it Karma or what ever but my theory is we want all these cars on the road and if we can help
do that with something that would just be sitting around, its a no brainer :ugeek:
Parts, knowledge (25 years on I still consider myself a learner!), what ever we can do to get these cars going :D
The Bellett/Isuzu Family has always been at the head of the class for this!
