well the story goes. last monday afternoon i drove past this vs ute for sale. and saw this ute has potential. after checking it out further it was a series 3 manual. so i spoke with the bloke and it had been a water damaged repairable write off. so i decided id buy it and see how i go.
picked the ute up on friday morning and it was thick with brown sludge all over the car. i pressure washed it and then washed it with a sponge. and the paint come up pretty well then proceeded to pull the interior to pieces and its apparent ill need to replace the body loom as the water has affected alot of the wiring.
after speaking with dan he said we could put the l67 into the ute. so the following afternoon we decided it was time to get cracking and pull the l67 out of the wreck out the back. saturday night saw us with the motor and box out and the auto box disconnected.
sunday morning pulled all the bits and pieces off the ute and made way for the engine to come out of the ute which was seized from when the ute obviously went for a swim, hence the name "beached az".
sunday night we have the ecotec out and the getrag disconnected.
now all thats left to do is refit the l67 and getrag to the ute replacing bits and pieces as we go.
