Lookin Good, which ryan (take it from the wheels you mean Slo).

 

Make sure you take lots of pics when you remove whats under the fuel filler, I'm curious how much rust there actually is in it.

the wheels are mine came on sharki, but yes slo and i have taken the filler out already was alot the metal all broke when tryin to pull it out haha, well wasnt really much metal anymore but ya kno, voted for a shaved filler and have it in the boot will photoshop a pic later so you all get what i mean but will be good i reckon!

 

EDIT:

 

something like this for the boot with a piano hinge or something to a trap door for easy access to the spare!

There is a fair amount of rust in this beast. it will all have to be rust converted before any new metal is welded in. Its gonna take a bit of work but it will be on par with the work thats been done on the 38.

has pretty much stopped progress on this for a while as Ive just started at trade-school so spent a fair wad getting setup as well as tafe fees, stupid system my boss has makes us pay then pays us back when we complete as well as the Silvia having had some issues i had to throw money at to sort out on top of normal everyday expenses, not easy on a first year apprentice wage, but once things smooth out a bit I'm sure there will be plenty! For now i am worried about other stuff and not so interested but i will be again once i can afford it i am sure.

 

 

just an idea my dad and i had floating around, not sure (rims are huge to cover the redwalls, not for any other reason)

Yesh. First year wages SUCK! I am now third year, and money still sucks. But weird thing is, you can make yourself live off a first year wage, and maybe have a tiny bit left over by the end of the week. Though when you are 3rd year, you barely have anything left ha.

 

Cars can be hard to hold interest unless you are pure grease blood ha. I work on cars everyday and at the end of the day, you just want to relax!

 

 

Good luck with it!
