I have managed to get this from Tom, took a while, deal is I have to weld up his single cab. Now this Dual Cab is badly rusted and basically only has 3 sides but I’m up for the challenge

Good score Ian, I know it’s a lot of work but I bet there are a lot of envious people on here

It actually doesn’t look that bad if your only looking at it from the drivers side. Have you got any of the as found pics?

I don’t have any pictures, maybe Tom has, he has been a bit shy on telling me where and how he got it, I wonder if he will chime in and fill in that part of the story, he’s Tomrat57 on here, I think he has posted twice in 15 years

Dragged it out of his back shed today and moved it up to the shed with concrete to get it on my jig, going by the chassis number it’s a May 61 Dual Cab, and has oval taillights. So at a guess it would have been a CKD kit that would have been sent here and assembled here in 62 going by how long it took to get here, hence the oval taillights. DPU number is 1206
