Hi everyone, I picked up an old 1302 pan the other day and I am looking to make a cheap backyard basher. I am looking for the front section of the body so i can mock up the correct location for the strut towers.

So basically just the body cut at the a pillars, and then also cut below the door sill so the whole front section if you know what i mean. Can be 1303 or 1302 etc. It would basically just need to be the firewall and strut towers.

Obviously the shitter the body the better, dont go cutting up any good supers! This is really just to mock up the correct location of the struts and then a roll cage will be built and tied in eventually.

Let me know what you got!

I am on the Sunshine Coast. Send me a txt 0403927276 or PM me on here.

Hmm, I'm not to keen on shipping costs just yet... I should mention I have a ute so I can come pick up within 200km range or the Sunshine Coast or thereabouts....Brisbane, Toowoomba, Ipswich, Gold Coast etc etc

Hi

If you cant get hold of the body sections you could setup the struts with a level to get the correct caster & camber and then make the pipes up to hold it in that place or do what the Holzl boys did.

Ok that sounds more like it!Thats only 20 minutes away from me so thats nice and easy. What sort of condition and price etc...

I checked my PM but nothing is in there? Maybe there is a problem with it or something, but either way my phone number is 0403927276 , sms or call etc, or I will try pm'ing again and see if that goes through...

Thanks!

VWO_60, sorry I am using the internet at my friend's house at the moment! My PC at home died this week. I left a message on your home phone, I understand if you have other things to do then thats fine... Whenever suits you is fine for me,

VWO_60... apologies for the stuff around but the ute with a towball i borrowed has fallen through and so has the mate who was going to help me!

Unfortunately I dont think I can pull it off today. I appreciate the offer for the body and am still interested... I will just have to organise it better for some other time.

If you are interested I am willing to pay you for just the front section cut as it means i can come and pick it up and wont need to organise a trailer or mates to help with lifting.

I could bring my own grinder if that helps.

I understand you want to get rid of the whole shell from your property but there is a financial incentive for just the front part if you're keen! Name a price and I can come round with the cash $$$
