What sort of condition is the parts car in
Looking by the front end you swapped it can't be too bad.
Or was the front end holding it together

Hi all, its been a while since I posted any progress on my wagon but I'm happy to say things have been moving
. I started looking for someone to replace my sills back in December but got sidetracked over the new year. I finally bit the bullet and put it into a panel shop in February, and as one thing leads to another, the project grew and grew! So after 6 months, I've had the sills replaced, all rust in the floors, doors and tailgate has been cut out and replaced with customised panels. There's also new rubber seals in the doors and tailgate, and I had a 2-pac paint job finish the work. So yeh, I'm pretty happy with the result!
I've got pictures of it all in photobucket -

Enjoy!

Cal .. yes mate, I'll be paying this off for some months to come I think! But I reckon it's worth it
J - I like the white walls, they're on the list 'things to do', along with quite a few other things, hehe.
Ang yeh, that was me heading up West Coast Highway. Was a nice day for a drive

You have to be happy with how that came out
And now bits won't fall off when driving.
Amazing what a bit of new metal and some paint will do.
Great stuff.
