Thank, s for the welcome , the plan is to make it to the Nats, Hervey Bay not to far away to drive, it would be great to meet you guys. I feel like I know some of you already, having read almost all your builds and most of your post.The ute is in need of Radiator (in now being repaired, it's the original core)
Rear Exhaust pipe brakes checked over, last Rego. Last Rego 1987. I have just brought the number plates 61 EKU (thanks Dave)
