Very nice!!! How long until we see it at an event? :thumb:thumb:thumb

Nice ute, love the colour. I noticed that you took the tray off, have you put a new one on yet? what are you replacing it with. Just curious as i just pulled the tray off my ute and im still to decide what to replace it with.😎

Kombi Dad · 1 Jul 2003, 9:40 pm

Shouldn't be too long. It is all but finished though I havn't a picture of it at present. Only the deck to go. Engine (Pobjoy 1380) already fitted. Brakes done. Seats done. Lining done (thanks to 242). Just killing me to get the deck done.

Thats right Geoden, do you still want the roof section u bought off me?

Kombi Dad · 12 Jul 2003, 8:18 am

The colour is original. The paint identification label was still in the vehicle so a colour match was easy. The vehicle ride height will be standard unless I chnage my mind. The tray will be hardwood with a stainless edge. No gates at this stage as I just can't get them. I have thought of wooden gates but initially it will be a flat top. Getting it on the road is the current aim.

splitkombimad · 26 Jul 2003, 10:18 pm

nice ute! i reckon leave it standard height, my 62 ute is standard height with ball joint beam i.r.s and 77kombi running gear and it is a very practical every day ute, thats if you want to use your ute and have a good ride!
doing the tray would be a bastard of a job how r u gonna make another one?

It came up a treat, good work.

frenzix · 28 Mar 2005, 1:56 pm

bruce is this the one we saw when we went up to surfers near tweed?

looks nice

SKEWtYpe3 · 29 Mar 2005, 2:31 pm

it one a place at the nats !

VWENVY · 29 Mar 2005, 4:39 pm

Very nice single!!
I love the timber floor, looks like a shmik fit!

Kombi Dad · 2 Apr 2005, 7:18 am

No. It is not the one that was up near Surfers. I have been restoring it for 4.5 years and finally had it registered just before the Nats. Before I started the restoration it was in a farmer's shed from 1984 until I picked it up. Now is a daily driver, with care though.

byronbus · 2 Apr 2005, 10:51 am

As dad said said it isnt the one, that one was two tone...nice yoot though

winerot · 2 Apr 2005, 11:29 am
