 Post subject: Sprint VA15234 DL
PostPosted: Fri Mar 04, 2016 12:51 am 
We finally got to pick up the Sprint in October 2015 from Millicent in South Australia and the journey was a great weekend away and the Jeep with it's new heads preformed great not missing a bet , as for the Sprint it is now under restoration .
Since starting to resto I have found lots of rust , mostly the fire wall and cowl panel , the nose panel also accident damage to the nose and radiator support panel and front guards lower rear section , at this stage I have cut out the rust in the top of both door pillars and lower windscreen pillars and replaced the cowl panel with a better used item once the rust was repaired as the old one was to far gone and I am working on the fire wall above the gearbox and to the left of the gearbox tunnel .
Cheers will post pics soon .
Larry

Maryborough hasn't been the same since the drive through bottle stop on Victoria Street got demolished. No, I've never been but isn't Google street view an amazing thing!

Good luck with your restoration!
