pain in the rrrs stuff laying around

hey mate hows the A40 going i had a A30 panel van a few years back hard to come by

just sitting waiting patiently has the torana front suspension fitted and all steering connected torana diff and red motor fitted with firewall done just gotta make front floor do the rust and plumb up the brakes
a couple of times now it's nearly become a drag car tubs and small block

Tempting , Mick...but we need to see the odd one on the road..most have fallen by the wayside due to the "Rust Monster".

could have got another one the other day for $400 still a slightly different body to mine still haven't seen one with the same body as ours

Nice i thought the same thing about mine turning it into drag car but she was way to rusty, i found picture of it i had it when i was 16/17 i think... ended up giving it away

[Harko]

WOW thats a little oddball .

Rat yours is worth a little effort if not now a little later on

[Mick]

unfortunately browno when dealing with cars that you just don't see rust is something you have to deal with mine's pretty rusty aswell, but things like when you talk to an older guy would have been in his sixtys and he's been into austins all his life and his dad was into austins and he said he'de never seen a van but he had 2 two door austins, you start to think you have something pretty rare, i've seen pics of 4 other vans in australia and none were the same as mine i have seen a van like yors strangely enough it was at the same place i got mine (different year though) orange swap meet

it won't be going anywhere harko, i've talked about getting rid of it and the missus is the one that said i don't care if nothing else gets done to it, it's staying right where it is

[Harko]

awesome.

[browny]

cant wait to see it done
