I bought this off ebay a week or so ago and after a reality check with a new bub on the way I realise that it probably wont suit my immediate needs, so will offer it up for sale at a bit less than it cost me.
The ute didnt come with an engine, gearbox, steering wheel or rear seat and the seats that are in it would need replacing. It does have a substantial amount of rust, particularly in the rear floor and doglegs and front bumper support and sills but is not terminal and the chassis and outriggers appear solid.
The metal around the windscreen and roof and all the usual difficult parts all look solid and the roof lining is serviceable.
I will put it back up on ebay in a day or two but thought would offer it here first. I will put more photos up as time permits but if anyone wants anything specific let me know.
Cheers

I was having timing issues with trying to co-ordinate times when I would be out with the car so I didnt pursue it, but I will be bringing the ute back to Camp Hill (Brisbane City) in next day or so if anyone is interested. Since these photos I have cut out the rear floor (under the rear seat), which took a fair few hours and done a fair bit of sanding back - needs a lot of work but isnt too hard.

Looks like it has lots of potential. Another project? Hmmmm.
