F15A in June 08 "Just Cars" magazine

I really dont think its value for money:

Rust is a no, no in any resto. Pine trees have nasty acid which eats mild steel over time. (Pretty bad things to park your vehicles under at any time)

Given that it is an asking of $1700 & it is a long way from anyone, the price fuel at $3 a KM to freighting it to somewhere like Melbourne might ensure it sits until the scrappers visit, or Fuel gets cheaper.

Hmm straight guards, two headlight rings, a steering wheel and tool box I could maybe use... well I guess I would salvage them above all else.

Ian F. PM me about Drawings for a Tray..... I may be able to expand your knowledge.

There are lots of very rusty V8 hulks around. Interestingly he wants to restore one of the rougher trucks he has. He often goes to clearing sales to save complete wrecks from the scrappers which you'd really have to wonder about...
The F15A is by far the best one there.

Plushy,

I have some diagrams which would help you to make a tray. Sufficient dimensions to make something similar.

Like anything its based on time & money. You may want to source an old Holden 1 Tonner tray (HQ era) as they are very close on dimensions to an F15A tray. It can fill the gap until you can find or fabricate something better. There is about 3" difference in width. Or overall an inch and a half each side.

PM me if you want a drawing & I will find what I have.
