Jimmy, tell us a bit about it?

It looks very original, still has painted headlight rims, but the front looks different colour to the back? Is that right? Where did it come from? What are oyur plans?

What are the ID plate details? That will show what it should look like.

Lots of questions hey :-)

Cheers,

Craig.

G-DAY
          OK i picked the ute up about 10 months ago just didnt want to start till i could spend time on the ute .the front of the ute was coated in grey paint and back half is the original green colour. Rust in most of floor which ill cut and replace with new floor panels and around tank floor will be replaced. needs work on some of the subframes. But from what i can see sills and door sills look ok . A bit of panel beating to be done .So the work on ute will be going for a full restoration. :) be doing all the repair work myself .
