Bought 9th March 2006 I came aross this vehicle in a local paper. I thought it'd be good to have for spare parts. The body was pretty good really, but as nobody wanted it I had to wreck it.

My friend Brent, who is doing up a Ute / Pickup took the chassis as his own was too rusty to be worth repairing.

Brent and I took every moveable thing off the car to save for spares. Spares are very handy for cars as old as these.
