Looks to be a nice tidy project to play with.
What colour interior are you looking to go for?
Nothing wrong with BBQ gas, can be pretty reliable if setup well and maintained. Shame about how much room you lose in the little boots with a tank in there though.
Keep us updated.

Friday 20/4
this will be the last day I get to drive the patch mobile :yahoo:
as the windows will be coming out to repair the last bits off rust
then a block down remove all handles lights bars grille mirrors etc
then hit it with a few nice coats off Epoxy
interior colour I like would be red but would consider brown/tan
and grey
