WTF ratbox - did we have a seniors moment there

Had one in my younger years (untill I flipped it) & what a bag of shit they were to drive.

Its now gone from Syd Ottley family butcher to ratbox's backyard butcher

only firm plan so far is red motor and associated suspension upgrades sort of been down this track before had a sedan with V6 chev torana suspension and diff, wanted a red six in that one to but got talked out of it not this time

could not believe when i heard the guy say offers but i'de be happy with $500 gave the other bloke 30 seconds thinking time and said sold i'll take it for 5

hard to actually tell what people would have paid after it's sold, you know put up or shut up but heard figures different people saying they'de have paid from $2,500 to $4,000

Another A40!
Bet you wont be painting this one PINK.

Its a rare body style, and different to a couple of others I have seen over the years

harko bit different body, is the chassis from the ute/pickup that was around a while back

Mick

The van Harko posted is a Pommy built body
The ute and van bodies that we got in Australia were over 95 percent made here.
State dealers had regional body building buisnesses create the required ute van or convert bodies.
This is why there are slight differences from State to State.

The chassis posted is under a sedan

RB, you could turn that into something really nice. But it also looks like a lot of work.
Have fun.....

Nice colour/s already...........

Harko, it's amazing how they look so good, especially when there is hardly and car there.
