Nice looking Ute , looks like she has been really well looked after , floors and tray area look good , don't look like there was much cancer in there

Hi Rusty, Your right no rust. Originally from Broken Hill I'm told. Didn't know how lucky I was 'till I looked at all the cars posted here!

At first I thought it was gonna be another one of those big engined V8's...but it's nice to see a custom painted 'Grey Powered' cruiser for a change.
What's the completed car going to feature?? I like it now! :wink: 8) 8) 8)

G'day Scotty
No v8 for this one, although it crossed my mind 6 years ago before I started. The grey will just be getting the usual twin carbs ,extractors and head work. Possibly a camm once I've driven it a little.
Thank you for the interest.
Tim

Thanks Devilrod and Sunnytim, in between me buying the car and it's condition today there has been a lot of work and there has not been. Bought a new house had two kids . Looking at all the work the majority of the people on the forum do to their cars, and what they do to keep them alive makes me feel like a pretender. I bought the car from the side of the road in melbourne 7 years ago. I stripped it' painted it and sourced the parts to make it . Nothing to it. No repairs, no rust.
Thanks for the interest and the nice comments.
Tim
