Resto project from downunder
I just realised that it's 12 months since the last update on this project! I'd like to say that it's now completed,but sadly that's still not the case. Due to work and family commitments as well as buying a couple of pickups from the US and spending too many $$$ on "Cool Breeze", there has been no progress on this until last weekend.
I finally have the engine and K frame back in after making a mobile cradle to carry the complete assembly (something I'm sure will come in handy many times over the next few years) and have started refitting the completely rebuilt front suspension.
As soon as I've restored the dash it'll go into town to have the vinyl roof and hoodlining fitted, then the screens can go back in. I purchased a vinyl top from Year One in the US for about $170 including postage.
