    Update on Jims ute

    I picked up my ute from the panel shop this week. Thanks to Jason at Stick this for supplying the correct stripes for me.
    I currently have the dash facia out being repaired because past owner had installed after market radio.
    Still trying to locate an original radio for it.

    That look's beautiful, the stripe's finish it off perfectly. Alway's liked the centre roof aerial, they are well suited to these vehicle's.

    Cheers.

    Radio is in and operational & the clock is ticking away. All the wiring under the hood has been fixed up & plastic wrapped to tidy it up.
