Picked up this mid last year. Was meant to become my daily driver for a while and the wife would drive our FJ Cruiser. This lasted a few months of which I really enjoyed driving it. Eventually it was time to take it off the road for a couple of weeks to do power steering and disc brakes. I started tidying things up while I had the front end off and this ended up snow balling into a full body off rebuild. Story from start to current will be posted below.
Details
1977 HJ45 Ute
2H 6cyl. Diesel (out of a 60 series)
5 speed (out of a 60 series)
Rear housing from a 60 series
Has all the front end gear to fit 60 series p/steer and disc brakes
Plans were to loose all the stickers, bullbar, and mirrors. Fit stock bumper and mirrors, and just get all of it looking as factory as possible. Then look at turbo'ing the 2H too.
