G'Day Kirk she's a 68 roadster full matching numbers 75k original miles she was still running the original tyres when I bought her and one of eighty built in 68 (327/350 hp -muncie rock crusher box ) and the Stingray (one word title came out in 69) and she cost me less than a new Commodore     Cheers Neil

lookin at all the mods n stuff on view (slobber slobber drool drool..merlin,yor castle looks like me mate hairys place down vic, luv it) ... a question popped into my mind upon georges comment of a 4X4  beddy.. i have a mitsi L300 4X4 .. would it be possible  to fit a beddy body onto that chassis??.. or any pitfalls that may be encountered.. just a thought at the mo but.. from little things big tings might just grow   ;) any n all thoughts, even neg ones, would of course as always be gratefully accepted... ;)
I,d rather sell my...mum,....than my bedford!!

I would think the wheel basew would be to short aswell as for the diffs being weak i had an L300 and stuffed a Leyland P76 V8 in it and i couldn't kill it .and not from a lack of trying either ended up selling it to a mate and it went hard for at least 5 years before he taught it to roll over & play dead  ;D :o
