Yes not much rust at all -( have more pics) just striped and painted due to old paint was flaking off and it had some over spray on the rubbers -just did not look right -that how I bought the car with 138 grey and drums
Now replaced with all new door rubbers ,weather strips ,bailey channels , and window rubbers .

Hi MJ, It does have me :)

An NZ Tag is gold, I have only seen two tags on this forum and not the Subframe number. All part of the research.

Hi guys it's was a south island car for most of its life so therefore minimum rust .Now in Auckland for the past 10 years or so and I have owned it for last 7 years .it took me about 4 years to restore .back on road about year and half.
passes all 6 monthly checks without any hassle ( compulsory checks in NZ )
runs good on long trips . likes to sit around 55 mph.

Love the wagon FBX2, as Steve said above mate .........

Could you take a shot of the body tag (right hand side engine bay) and chassis number (left side inner guard -engine bay). Curious about its history. Heres the thread where ours are listed
