I know a chap who used to look after it for a previous owner many years ago. In fact, I was offered it quite cheaply at one point but turned it down! Very interesting car If it is that car I expect you know most of its history anyway?

That's a different Scottish Kev, 1071KEV, (who also looks after my moke )

Aha. Thanks Al. I was getting confused Interesting car isn't it

hi what is the rest of the car like some people do some weird things to cars a friend bought a holden ute which looked ok a few weeks later he hit a bump in the road and it broke in half behind the cab the sills were rusted out and filled with cement like mortar the previous owner was a brick layer so why not
this is a true tale cheers roger mcnab

something weird going on with the 61 floor it has no separate sills ie the floor at both sides attach directly to the outer door step it is a complete continuation of the inner floor ,registered march 61 , but has a non transferable registration on it which leaves me to believe its an earlier shell and at some point given a new id

that's the headlining out and what a absolute night mare that was to get out ,so much so itl not be going back in as the frame is now twisted and bent god knows how your meant to fit a new one

Took my headlining out recovered it and put it back in no problems . Both parts should slide into the middle one at a time and as the roof is a bit wider there it should drop down quite easy . What problem did you have ?

had a closer look at it tonight someones modified the frame and had silicone the edges no wonder I had problems getting it out
