were you able to keep the hooks on with the lid down, or did you cut them off

Hooks have to go, i have set up some internal stainless tie down points to secure ropes/straps with.

is that tailgate the one they sell on ebay?

Same sort, it came from Wetherill Park Panels in Sydney.

hey mate how much were your superlites and where did you get them from? Im after an identical set for my sedan.

$230 each, Beurepaires in Bathurst NSW, Gareth was the man to deal with.

Hey man, Lookin' good!

All I can add, is, keep an eye on the screw thingo that holds the air cleaner cover on. I've always had a problem with them vibrating loose. . .

Keep the pics coming!

Cheers, its about to hit paint and panel with the help of about 25 eager young boys in Automotive class.

OK, next installment, handed it to the boys for disassembly, they are restoring a VB commodore and the Datto at the same time in our workshop. Plastic bagging all bolts, nuts, fittings, and what do you know, NO RUST!!. Main reason i grabbed this ute was because i was certain it would be free from cancer.
