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!  The original caps will no longer fit but I the can grind them back To Fit the original style caps  Will prob get some early luv rims to swap around too although they are a little wider  Josh

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.  Cheers, Matt.

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

Not Repro, It was available in the early 70's And its fully operational  The 23CH CB in not legal to use though  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 Josh
