Thanks man,Bought it from an old lady in ventersdorp 2years ago,got it back decided to just do the body over at panelbeater that i know,got it back from there decided would powdercoat the enjin as it didnt looks nice to the body - so stripped scrupped powercoated parts did the carb new coil fuelpunt service etc,basiclly everything lol,then the interioir didnt look good so had it re upholstered again including rooflining,stone chipped the chassy imported the radio from america put on the spotlights,took to electrician to do all the wiring over,now at mechanic to redo brakes clutch and pedals,got surfboard for free from friend and that is it,got thenoriginal owners manuel and with slips and original key,took 2 years hopefully this week after 2 years i will drive it again!cant wait wait
