Thanks guys,

Tim, the seat insert has been redone in material, the door skins are dinky di, i'll post some more pics shortly. And thanks for the colour info mate,

It is the ebay sale Bootlegger, picked it up for 20k, which i feel is pretty good.

Under the car is sweet, floors, sills etc. Its had a respray & apart from a couple little marks on the bonnet, its quite neat.

Got the radiator out today, no wonder why he was running hot on the way home last night, the radiator sounds like a giant marraca when you shake it!
A quick once over, new shocks and cooling system (hoses stat radiator etc) and away we go.
I need a couple other odd things, glove box lock - speedo cable & maybe speedo - Bonnet rubbers - I'll bang these items on the wanted thread.. along with some stuff for the ute.

My first car was a HX panel van, 3 on the tree, brought some memories back driving home on Roe Hway i can tell ya.... 3rd gear - left leg over the bench seat, gutter grip and of course' ' ' ' back door up & Lovin life :thumbsup:

i put an offer on the van and received a counter offer but declined and decided to use the capital elsewhere.
