It'd be worth having the swamp drained and a road put through if it happened:smile:

This is a good example of what's been discussed I wonder if it will be restored rather than just used for parts as the advert suggests.

MMMMMMMMMMMMM what a floor pan the ball joint beam was added to the pan in the early Eighty's when it had a front ender. Now on the lookout for a King pin front axle drum to drum.  shaun pan.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.

Hi Rob No its a friends car just doing bits to it.

The deeper we dig the worse it gets but will be nice when done and it will be used as an every day car and not just a hanger queen :d

I was tempted to bid on the Oval a few posts up to restore, but I bottled it.

I bought a 59/60 RHD Golde ragtop the other day though, its prob worse than the Oval was, but I intend to restore it 100% stock to show quality. Its going to be a long project... If anyone has any front quarters, and a front scuttle / front clip / A posts... could you let me know please?

The worst part is the front A posts forward:
