think it might be a tad optimistic Steve to think any paint on that ute is salvageable
Styagain, this is the first time you've looked in on a Steve Jackson resto isn't it. :lol:

Watch and learn young buck, watch and learn.

Looks like someone has been in howlong?? Did you have a look around at all of rex's parts and panels he has some amazing stuff. he has another yard full of old holdens on the other side of howlong as well. im guessing whatever you paid for it ended with a 75? every time i want something its 875 or 1175 or 3075 its his favourite number.

Umm, no it's not actually, I've even loaned parts to Steve for one of his previous projects... I'll concede the possibility of resurrecting the paint on the instrument cluster - all else looks pretty gone to me.

I like the term "young buck" though, it's nice to hear when you're staring down the barrel of 40 years old...

I wonder what Rex would want for that X-series Falcon ute?

Hi FEfc, Mini Mark picked the ute up for me, I didn't go with him. Nothing else he wanted to sell except a very beat green wagon that needs a rear quarter. Sad they are in the rain.

Andrew, F O R D S are his main passion, I doubt he would sell a wheel nut :)

Looks like damage from hitting tree stumps when paddock bashing or shooting to me.
