Right, I've tried to find a way of keeping this project going but have now realised i just cant do 4 all at once so this has to go
(Roofrack not included)
Build thread here PLEASE READ = retrorides.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=readersrides&thread=100666&page=1
Its a Series 3 Van that was once a 2.25 diesel, it will need welding to front dumb-irons(have a spare front end that should yield the nessesary metalwork), central crossmember and rear crossmember. The engine and gearbox mounts have all been moved/modified for an Oldsmobile 350 V8 and TH350 gearbox to fit in but nothing major has been cut so easy enough to put back to standard. The bulkhead has had quite alot chopped out for the engine to sit back as far as i dared but have most of the cut out metalwork still so could be carefully reconstructed back to standard. I have repaired the top corners and bottoms of the a-pillars already but will need tidying up before painting.
If you read the build thread it will give you a better understanding of what you are getting and what you aint , it isnt 100% complete but there is enough there to build up a rolling shell.....just need to add an engine of your own choice ;D
This will need trailering away, its currently only sat on 3 leaf springs(fourth included) but still ok to move around. I can loosely assemble the screen and roof onto the truck for ease of collecting if so required.
Offers in the close region of £200 please, I'm taking a hit on this as it is so cant let it go for much less I'm afraid. V5 is present and in my name.
PM me if you require any more info
Thanks
