Geez Josh, that's a fine-looking Wasp!

I always knew that Wasp had something awesome in it just waiting to bust out!

10/10!

The Bellett hubcaps look good on there... did Keith do that modification? That's a lot of work for no reason, but I guess if you've got no Wasp hubcaps, it's the next best thing.

I wonder if this means that original Wasp items won't fit on there now?

Again, looks great!

Dave

Thanks B and Dave,
The guy Kieth got the car from did the mod, basically welded blobs on the buttons the Wasp hubcaps fitted to! :o
The original caps will no longer fit but I the can grind them back To Fit the original style caps :geek:
Will prob get some early luv rims to swap around too although they are a little wider ;)

Good job Josh.
We are going to have to have a "Year of the Wasp " at the Nationals some time down the track. They were missed this year.

Thats a nice job Josh, amazing what a REAL good clean does! I reckon it is fine just the way it is now. Dash is amazing!
I'll look forward to seeing the metal next year. :D

Looks great Josh, well done! If you want an alloy valve cover, I've got one kicking around here too.

Looking forward to seeing Bluey on a cruise one day. ;)

Cheerio,
Duane

Upgraded Gauge cluster for the Wasp, all (near) correct period Yazaki Gauges :D
They replace the VDO cluster already installed.
Took 6 months to find them all but well worth it :ugeek:

Hey is that an old-school thing or a repro item?

Re: New Home for WASP65

Not Repro, It was available in the early 70's :ugeek:
And its fully operational :!:
The 23CH CB in not legal to use though :cry:
They were more common in the US, quite a few brand made versions of it and even a few car makers like Cadillac
had them as standard equipment :geek:
