sleepy92 Posted January 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 (edited) Crispy - i'm doing my conversion at my mates place on the Gold Coast... will be driving it back down to newcastle after i'm done, so if you want to check it out as i pass Evans Head, let me know KE30_KE35_KE55 - i'll check out the chassis rails as soon as i'm back on the job next week... Unless i find an immaculate body, i'll probably just rust-cut and dent-remove this shell, then get it prepared and painted. probably not in the near future, cos i'm spending my $$$ on the drivetrain first edit: Pictures will be up later this week Edited January 31, 2009 by sleepy92 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
