Rack and pinion steering, 4 link rear (maybe an IRS rear end) Some wild engine/box/diff combo. Build it to enjoy it.
You better go buy yourself one of these 1:18 scale models cause it's what you've got.

cheers mate, if i cant find the original chassie ill keep the hq one and would like a ls1, manual, and a 9", ill do what i can without modifying the body too bad, yeah ill have to get one, itll look like factory when its done so itll be cool to have a mini ute
