They can be tricky to find and I know some of the "usual suspects" who stock that sort of thing want $800 so keep an eye out for anyone cutting up a bus (doesn't happen too much these days). Where in Adelaide are you?

In Goodwood mate, hopefully moving to Seaford soon. A bit more space needed

Im in Bellevue Heights, just behind flinders. Feel free to pop around for a look if you need any measurements or pics for reference.

Been on the road for a bit over a year. It's not showroom by any stretch, but I replaced the bottom 7 inches all around. Still patina. It's been good
