What if this was built 2 years later? Would I be in SM contention?

As is; it's my parts carrier, spare bits holder, start-up and run-around-the-back-paddock-in-the-snow-ute.
I bought it unregoed for the tyres and the motor and the odd HQ pieces for the van as one does.

What I know....
  • It was what looks like a deep green (then yellow, then grey, then yellow)
  • It had a full instrument loom in it
  • Maybe it had air-con
  • A strange heavy bracket professionally welded to chassis rail (front right in engine bay ??)
  • Similar heavy brackets/ mounts welded to back end of chassis rail (not quite right for exhaust mounts or sway bar)
  • Orignal looking floor shift cut-out
