Cheers for that ill get the hang of it when i get some progress

looks like you have got your work cut out good luck  

Been poking around all day rust hole along the bottom of the bench and the back passenger side arch is rotten  heater matrix has a leak and important swapping the engine out because the current engine hasn't been run in years and is all coked up

need a set of doors a tailgate and set of wings if anyone has any for sale message me a price

stripped out the interier and started to repair the bodywork there is only a few rust holes drainage spare wheel bench and rear arch , should be easy to repair im starting to strip down the pant and just waiting for my pierburg twin choke carb to arrive so i can start her up pull the lump out and give it a fresh coat of life

Would you be willing to sell that driver grill badge aha?
Cheers,
 Jack
