As some of the peeps here may know I've been hunting around for a VB10 for some while. Thanks to Lag I came across a fairly good shell just down the road form me. IT a 67 wagon that needs a full rebuild. It will cop a full rotisery rebuild. Plans are to run a A12 (this could change. I do have a spare CA18DET in the shed), Sigma front brakes, with JDM style fender mirrors and some JDM old school rims. Will probably drop it a few inches or if the Mrs gets her way I'll air bag the suspension. So aiming for a 2 year build. There is rust but nothing a bit of sheet metal, grinder and a MIG can't fix. I pick her up next Friday and the work will begin. Pics soon. :D

No worries mate bang them up. I have started just don't like having the camera in the dusty shed at the moment. I have started the panel work. Drivers door is done and ready for primer. Will do the guard tomorrow. Will then prime them both at the same time. There is more rust than I thought there would be but nothing major. Will get some pics up in the next few days.
