my long term project 56 ragtop baja (FOR SALE)


This is something ive been working on here and there for a while.This is a long term thing:)
So far it has....
Irs pan, absolutely rust free converted to manual
1600 kombi box and conv kit and spare box
1800 type 4 motor and upright kit, sand aircleaners
external oil cooler
front adjusters and raised beam, beam stiffeners
larger type 3 rear brakes
kombi cvs with h/d axle shafts
sway away spring plates
2 inch lift kit professionally made with corect floor curve
oval body with factory ragtop to be welded in
saas front seats(need recover)
centerline style 15 inch mags
some guages,
bubble rear windows
new 1 piece windows and regulators

Body has all bottom rusted, not for the faint hearted, body is sitting on pan now.

Well this one may have to go also to make my move easier and could use the money, im thinking its all worth $4300 ono, wont separate, take the whole thing or not, steve

You can hear them whimpering in the wind....

Rolling on the ground, curled in the ball, thump in the mouth....
Poor purists :lol:

Why not a split window ? :yes:

You might have to import one for that. Or a nice Barndoor Baja Bus with a V8 shoved in the back blazing up the dunes! Smiley

i could always weld the centre section from a split bus into the oval window to turn it into a split but the lower grille is still different, and the ragtop on a split is bigger so the purists wont believe it:)

You really gotta get a watercooled engine in there if you want to upset the purists, and maybe paint halloween pumpkins on it too :D

Cheers Steve. I was wondering as I have two different sizes available, the one Nils has and a smaller [stock] size that sounds similiar to yours. I was interested to see how yours fits the wiper panel as I have done a heap of work to get the ones I make a quality fit. Maybe a pic if you get a round toit [yeah I know they're rare:lol:].

Cool Steve, thanks for the pics. That one piece is similiar to the 'stock' width style I supply. Thanks also for the ebay lead, but looked too crappy for the price.
Dont worry about Nils giving you heaps, his baja is going to be so full of bar work he'll be rebuilding the 1600 before long as it'll be soooo slow. :lol:
