never forget the ute , looking forward to getting it ready too cool to have sitting in the yard .
Already been looking at rust repair sections for gf panel .
wheel bearings done engine out , seal changed and genny changed over bad bearing made it feel like engine was solid mounted , might be able to get fuel sender earthed out too and exhaust leaks welded up.
i like fatty's ha so many ways that can be taken ... aww thats what she said. better stop too tired . If the one i rebuilt for travellinbob didnt burn to the ground I'd be driving that around, yeah should be good to catch up on sunday, the samba coming?

As I said at the show, Klaus, that Panel looks damn sexy.
I love the wide-5s on the back and I'd keep the red oxide on those rear panels.
It looks hot.
Top work all over.
Cheers & God Bless

drove it for work today and had a clogged fuel filter on the freeway at peek hour , all good . , pretty happy how it came out will finish fixing doglegs and give them a spray then work on doing some sign writing and ageing it a bit , back will stay red for a bit may have to spray roof for work reasons so it looks clean but old. (rub thru to primer) And sort out front beam might steal narrowed one out of dc and also drop spindles that should be here soon . mmm might get some sprintstars. thanks for comments , and wayne penrose for getting me a blueslip inspection done with such short notice and for passing it even though its all mech sweet ,
yeah i says as jeff and brenden gave me a hand to change engines 3 times on sat before nats , I now owe you jeff as your old 1500 runs sweet but you had a drive so I think were even ha .

dig your bus , gotta check your build again to see whats powering it, already checking out a larger cc engine and interior, a little bit noisy.
found out that it leaks a bit out back gotta finish welding roof so i cant see daylight thru it.

just a few updates , rear bumper from kuch bit of work needed but on .
then took it down to the farm good trip except for a short in the choke wiring , needs a little more power to make it fun up hills .
bogged and blended doglegs and lower front doors , but yeah all good looking at sorting some rims and discs for the back and big cc motor.
and either steering rack conversion or raising steering box.
luv driving it.. amazing how much attention an old shit box can attract too.
