My ute in the early 60"s
A picture might help!
I was handed the keys in approx 1997 at the age of 17 (It was going to be a 18th birthday present) but I,m not complaining.
It had 12 months rego and was all mine!
more shots
and some more-
The rebuild begins;
I,ll keep you posted
back from the sand blasters
A quick clean and detail underneath!
In primer getting ready for colour
Back on nearly all fours
The mighty 138 "BIG BLOCK"
The painting hay begun
keep the pictures coming looks a great ute
cheers fatboy
Finally in colour
Getting back together
Looking pretty respectable
The 138 "BIG BLOCK" finally in place
On the down hill run, the wallet very empty
This shot was taken about 16 months ago
This one is hot off the camera today.
I won't go into much detail of the rebuild as I am assuming as a new member there may be a write up in the "sideplate" issue? if not I will give you Guys & Girls more detail

Graham

Great looking ute Azza! I take it the sun visor is gone for good ?
Fantastic job!! Well done and congratulations.
What did you use for the floor in the Ute back?
Yours looks good and I have to replace mine soon.

Hi all and thanks for the commets,
The sun visor I still have, not quite sure if I will put it back on.
It also had a tonnau cover but have not decided if I want to drill holes in the body to refit it.
The timber in the tray is normal everyday $25 a sheet plywood primed and painted.
I don't know how long it will last it has been in there for 3 years now with no problems, The plywood that came out originally had seen it's day but the quality of it doesn't seem to compare to what you get today!
(goes back to the old saying "don't make it like they use to")
PS.... You may have picked up a name of "Jamie" on the email address, That is my lovely girlfriend's name, My name is Aaron.
Great looking ute, well done!!
