Hi there, only new here and first post.
I am looking to recover a FB Wagon from out bush soon, it has no rear springs or diff assy, I do have a ute I can remove these items from and take with me to recover the vehicle.
My question is, does the ute and station wagon share the same springs and diff as far as mounting to be able to drag onto a trailer?
I am currently getting parts and peces together to build a Kustom ute.
Current inventory includes the following items, some I have some I am yet to pick up.
And target is someting like this.

Hi there Nathan, yeah still in the air at the moment, but I figure it will cost nothing to amase the parts for incase it does go ahead.
I have to get my wifes Valiant Charger done first, just ordered rust sections from Craig Vane.
But I have 7 acres and about to confirm an order for a 12mx16m 4.6m high shed (Waiting on quote from concreter). So I have the room to let them sit in a corner for 12 months or so.
I have always wanted to have a crack at a Kustom, I had a 52 Chev ute but was too scared to cut that up (it was a pretty good body), but with these cars, they are just sitting out bush doing nothing.
