Ok it's been a long time and sadly nothing much has really been done.

I have just started getting stuck into it. I will post some progress pics when i get a chance.

I have started work on the the HR front end and i have a guy coming to give me a quote on the rust repair.

Hopefully it will be ready for the nats if it is it won't be pretty but it will be there :D

Yeah i think it's in pretty good shape compared to some others i have seen.
Rust repair guy didn't want to do it :? so now i have to find somebody else in the Canberra region. Does anybody know of someone who would do the rust repairs for me? I also bought a new one of these
