Wussy little bumper.......



I'll give you $5 if you mail me the ambi doors. I'd LOVE to s***can this window gate.

Cool find.
 
typical oldschool spec aus bumper home made with 10 t of steel
the interor was a little mouldy but pretty good nic considering i like the oldschool steering wheel in it and dash, one rear door was bogged to a t and stuffed the other only had a few rust spots in the window seal bit.i have only every seen 3 licenced on the road driving 55's before very cool ride i think
 
shoot, just put some gas in the carb and she'll light right up!
:p
 
78 or 79

If it has the A/C in it get it. It's worth money. Those headrest are worth some money. look on the front and see if it has frame extension where the PTO winch would have been if it does get them as they are worth quite a bit.

Get the rear emblem as it looks nice.

And the steering column. Good for 60 pwr steering conversion on 40s
 
yea it has the power steering box in it with the hoses hanging out to must have been a top model but i thought barns doors were the basic model???
 
That's just sad! When it was first left to rot, it probably would have been a good parts rig. Even now, I see like trollhole, loads of things that could be pulled off & sold to pigheads! ty
 
yeah like the sunvisors...can't be worse than mine (considering I only have 1:hillbilly:)
