Again Hi, It should have an old set of wheels on it over the weekend. I can then move it around and outside (photo with it's cousins) so I can get to the floor (shed) and give it a bit of a tidy up. More to follow. Rusty

Hi again folks. Doing a bit of welding on the many "Bullet" holes in the guards and where the bonett latches. Guess what was in the left head light peak, about 1/2 a metre of fly screen and 2 tubes of black crap. Guess who needs a head light peak, and a guard. Here's some pics.    Cheers Russ

Hi all, Have the head light peak for the left guard plus a spare. Right guard is not to bad. No holes in the guards at all now,except the peak L/Guard. I will put up some pics once I take them. The guy I got the peaks off is also making the lower corner of the guard as well. He said he has been inundated with calls for them. So keep an eye out. Cheers Rusty

Pete, What stewy said. The ute has the same tank as the wagon. Same floor pan as well. Anyway, lot of rust (out) and work went into these and there not done yet. Will replace the bottom corners when they are available, here's the guards. Right one     I'm pretty happy with the way the head light surround (Chrome bit) fits as well. The left guard is much the same only it needs the peak fitted. That's another story.   Left one  Cheers Rusty

Done a little more on the ute today. Here are some progress pics. Put a bit of colour in and around the engine bay and it's starting to look a bit of alright.  And a bit more over the dash and instrument cluster.  And started on that mudguard.   More pics as they come to hand. Nice ute as well Matt Cheers Rusty
