G'Day Craig, been interstate and only just found this thread. 
 
Yes its my mates old car. I knew the owner before Dom also and talked Dom into buying it from him ;-)
I wish I bought it from Dom instead of Ben but thats hindsight for you as the $'s that swapped hands for it back then was chicken feed.
 
Some good times were had in that car. It was defected when two fellas from school crashed and passed away near Doms house, police defected it whilst Dom drove past the crash site one morning after it happened. It was very loud though. I could easily hear it coming from half a km away. It was also quite low in the rear when air shocks were let down.
 
I'm still in touch with Bens older brother (also from school) so I've kept tabs on the car. I went and looked at it a year or so ago with the intention of finishing it off but it never eventuated.
 
Goodluck with the defect and bringing it back to it former glory, I'm looking forward to seeing it back on the road.
 
Cheers,
Rhys

Hopefully its not too hard , I have most of the bits required just some hard work, although now another car to house ! Need a bigger shed and more friends with spare room
 
Ben has spent a heap of $ on it up till now so I think its worth a gamble, still really rust free and straight
 
Love to see a pic of it from days gone if you have any
 
Still keen on that seat you have too for my other car if your interested
 
Cheers for the reply
