So here are the pics of the bits I bought off Ralph last week!

Just waiting for the van to get moved to the unit then I can start stripping it!

All parts are in good order, one wing needs a bit if repair but it all looks good! The parts in the pics are probably worth more than the whole of our pickup lol

Work has finally started! I have started to strip parts. I have not been able to work on it due to other projects and weather!

Now that the weather is picking up Iv been doing a bit each night.

So far the grill, skuttle has been removed and I am starting to disconnect the engine. As I do not have an engine crane I will be disconnecting it and literally dragging it out. Has anyone done similar?

Did you disconnect the gearbox or just drag everything out?

So here are the pics with thanks to tapatalk!

As you can see it's in a poor condition, the floors are ruined, holes in the wings, holes I. The inner wings, side steps are ruined, the bottoms to the seats are ruined butt he backs are actually fine!

Engine looks horrendous, probably best just being replaced. Underneath the van is solid! Chassis seems ok.

I need your help and advice to get this project on the go, if we can't get bits for it my dad will just get rid of it which is a shame as it really would be awesome when finished!

If anyone knows where's best to source parts or knows anyone Selling bits please let me know!

What do yous think anyway? Too much work? Is it a lost cause?

Hello,

I want to buy this one on avery good price please let me know if you wanna sale .
