I rekon I'm getting the raw end of the deal though, he will own it and i get to pay for it. He helped me for the last year on mine so
i guess i owe him. but if he ever sells it i want half.
It is a bit rough around the edges but all seems to be original, including the engine, 4 speed and diff, Interior is brown( He wants Black!)
We allready have some doors, will have to replace the rear beaver panel, Boot looks good, floor pans look good, few sus spots, guess we will see what we are in for over the next couple of weeks.
Day 1. Kick Dad's car out of the way.
Gona strip it with paint stripper, it only seems to have original paint on it, shouldn't be to bad.
Gona try and make it Factory Stock.
I want to see how much rust is in the rear of the car so stripped the quarter panel, no bad, a old repair above the wheel arch, the bog was about 1-2mm thick, about 15cm round. the bottom of the panel has about 4 rust holes about 5mm round, i will bead blast the outside and inside and weld them up.
The beaver panel is in pretty bad condition,we will have to replace it, are rare spares ones any good? I thought i read somewhere that they are only curved one way and not such a good fit? Check out the way the factory one is finished off. Nice.
Bit of patching in the tail lights, not to bad.
