As the title infers I would like to see pics of peoples wagons.
I'm pretty sure I'll finally be the owner of one by the end of the weekend

.
A mate of mine has had one sitting around as a unfinished/ not started project for 10 years or more and have finally harrassed him enough to part with it.
It'll be a big job, as it has been totally stripped.
So I was hoping some of you wonderful gents on here could post some pics for insipration.
Cheers
Sam

Good score there Jay, looks like you got a good deal. Look forward to seeing progress pics when she is all cleaned up and on the road. Welcome to the site mate, but be warned it's very addictive

Hi Jay78,
Welcome to the forum.
Looks like you picked up a good one there.Seems like its been shedded for most of its life going by its apparent overall condition.
Amazing whats still out there when you start looking.
Cheers,
