haha, i don't think so mate! i will be keeping her for a while after this BIG expense. It's guna be even better than before!

Nice work Simmo.

A CA had always been my plan for the ute, but I couldn't justify the time and expense......

I'll buy it back off ya when you're done

cheers guys, i got the hardcover off ebay! it came with all fittings and struts, quite impressed with it myself!

i noticed a few posts ago you asked what else you could take out of the engine bay.... i would say to get rid of that massive relay box, you should only need half of them if any (put the ones you need in the cabin aswell)

who did you get your hardcover from?

mmm does look very nice...

its been a while, update

gearbox tunnel is fully welded in and the gear box painted. New freshly painted hardcover on! here is some pics

not too far away now!

THROW OUT NOTHING
until car is finished.you may want bits of the body harness, plugs, relay sockets etc nuts, bolts, rubber grommets.......
you get the picture
there is a little grey plug near the fuse block that is for diagnostics. if you use factory ecu this only takes a couple wires to have it working.
dazza
good luck

yeah ive noticed that, maybe take the battery out and put it in the tray?

hey guys just lookin for some advice, i stripped everything electrical/ mechanical etc out of the half cut but im sure i dont need the half of it! iv had a look at quite a few datto engine bays with the ca conversion and most of them are quite clear!!! what can i do without? or where have people put some of this stuff?
