Plans are to restore it to its former glory (one day  :P)

 Car was retired into this tired old shed about 30 years ago by the farmer. The farmer died and the son took over the property and couldn't maintain it so decided to sell the farm. So to have a clean up before he sold the farm, he had a clearance sale and sold everything around the property. Part of that everything was this FE Ute.
 It is pretty good all over, with rust in the usual places but very straight with great guards and subby and rear floor around the tank and the tank is pretty good aswell. I don't know when i will get around to doing it, but for now it can sit in the shed for a while until the time and money come around to do it.
 Cheers Scotty

Congratulations Scott - so which family member gets to drive this one? Maybe your son - he seems to treat them with a little more respect than you and your dad!  :P ;D
