Time for a bit of an update...

Got the brakes all working - still the original drummies, but I'll put the new front struts and disc brakes in once I pass rego.

Engine, gearbox, starter motor etc pretty well together now. I'm gonna borrow my neighbour's engine crane in a couple of weeks to put it all in. I've cleaned up the carby a bit and I've just got to figure out what connects to what with new hose. Painted the manifold, so once that and the carby are bolted on in she'll go...

Interior is still gonna be a pain though, everything is $$$

These guys seem to do reconditioning too:

They reckon about $400, which is cheaper, but still more than I wanted to spend...

Apparently they don't do it any more - they put me on to the crew who wanted $700

ITEM:
I'm after a dash and/or console to fit a 1200 ute. I've got a dash but it's all cracked and buggered. I'm after an original or fibreglass copy in good shape, or a recommendation on where I can get mine fixed for cheap (I got a quote for $700 the other day).

CONDITION:
Good

LOCATION:
Canberra, ACT

CONTACT:
PM please

I'm trying to figure out where I can get a fibreglass dash made up for my 1200 ute, or where I can get my cracked and faded one restored. I rang Classic Dash in Sydney and they wanted $700 for a resto! Somewhere in ACT or NSW would be awesome...

Cheers guys

What sort of ute is the bench seat from?

Hey man check out http://www.allclassifieds.com.au/ac/ac0032?vcid=122936684

From what he said he's happy to negotiate quite a bit

Awesome - emailed. cheers.

I'm also after a tow bar (I want to be able to tow a box trailer) and a new dash if anyone can help out...

pretty major surgery!
