Yeah the grey one got my brother to pick it up for me so I havent seen it yet but he tells me I will get alot of parts of it for the money

Well this weekend is the weekend we will drag her out and get the her running, (fingers crossed) give her a bloody good clean out, and maybe put the replacement tailgate on, (if all goes well) got a small army of helpers organised so we should be able to make a good start

Shameless selling opportunity! Michelle, if it turns out that your motor is knackered, I have a turbo diesel motor here in Newcastle that you can have for $500.

Well I'm back from a long weekend of playing around in the dust and the cob webbs So after messing around with oil levles and checking a few things we rounded up a couple of batteries and hooked em up, Started no probs at all Dad said she sounded great considering she hadent been touched for so many years, (you know cos I wouldent know ;P) has a bit of a dicky clutch but we worked around that for now, Dad said after pulling the master cylinder apart that I may need a replacement there and possibley the slave as well.
Any way after fixing the brakes we took her for a spin around the paddok she loved it!!
We then replaced the tailgate and chucked the sunnys I got off the parts car on, looks good so far I think, we then got out the angle grinder ... Well I let the pics that are coming explain what we started, please note tho that we havent finished we ran out of time and putty this time round, the flares will cover any putty we poke in there, we still have to sand it back again and add some more putty to sooth it up some more
P.S. Pics are coming
