my ratty '60 single cab
frenzix - December 14th, 2004 at 09:12 PM

Scored this sweet rat the other day..the usual sills are gone, treasure chest floor is no good, front nose etc. The tray floor is ok and the dropgates are fairly solid. It has some original signage on it.. i noticed some under some paint... not sure when i'll get around to it but plans are to IRS, nice rims, rustwork, nice motor, and leave the paint as is, might rub some back and preserve. Don't expect me to get around to this one quickly though... still gotta finish the 55 one day after we finish the house.
I will post better photos when i have some.

cheers, Tim

okrasa power - December 16th, 2004 at 10:44 PM

Getting hard to find now


frenzix - December 18th, 2004 at 08:11 AM

mikki, i think i'll put the 1776 in this and ratify


frenzix - March 3rd, 2005 at 09:31 PM

All the pieces of this puzzle are found.. the 1776 the brms the safari's the repair panels the IRS gearbox the ratty bench seat the ratty passenger door the lights and tailights and all new rubbers. Now to get started on the rust and the IRS'ing. WATCH THIS DISGUSTINGLY RATTY SPACE.

Not to mention my range rover's gearbox shat itself which is the clinker for me to get this happening as a daily driver. $7000 for a gearbox reco.. pffttt right!
