New Project Time:-

Always loved and wanted a tonner, so one came up. And i bought it.


Good Points
-Solid Chassis
-V8
-Chev Rallys
-Caprice Dash
-Caprice Front (with trollface over riders)
-Registration

Bad Points
-Rust
-Rust
-More Rust




Plan
-Decide if i reregister it for another year and drive it around until i've built somewhere dedicated to do this
Im thinking against it at the moment, as it's extremly clunky to drive around and what i would spend getting it roadworthy would eat away at rebuild funds.

-So down to the nitty gritty.
Quick Rundown of proceedings -

Cab Off
Tray Off
Strip Chassis Back
Get Chassis Sandblasted and 2k it in black
Replace all bushes etc during rebuild of chassis
Motor Rebuild...or something
Replace or repair panels as required
Respray - Colour Undecided. Opinions Come at me (Original colour Jasmine Yellow)
Build flat tray, with wood inlay. Possible semi tub into tray
Interior Reupholster
Sound System


And now for pictures.

Bahaha, yeah. They had the money waiting before i even walked inside. It's great they dont check.

Felt bad for my neighbours, pulling into my driveway at quarter to 1 and scraping it the whole way in, like i did going out of the carpark....laying rail like a boss and all that.

Nice!

I hear the best thing to do from here is to write the "to do" list on the windscreen and paint it matte black.
