The ute basically as it was when I got it in Aug 2001. The wellside was blasted and the rust cut. |

You wouldn't believe there was no film in the camera I was loaned on the day I got the ute. But this is a mock up with the panels sitting in place. Its as it was (no lights or back fitted etc) |

Basically just the rolling chassis and cab. It looks like a beach buggy! |

From the back. The floor was coated in black tacky stuff and the carpet underlay was pushed into that. It took abit of scraping before blasting. |

No wheels. The cab is unbolted ready to lift off. The front suspension has been taken off before the cab can be as the shocks are attached to the firewall. |

The chassis which, at this stage can be shifted like a wheelbarrow. I pulled the diff etc out of the back end after this. |
