Work has started on Isurus during the strip down we found a wasp nest

And lots and lots of rust which I am not supprised about but we have to start some place. :?

Al and his fantastic team are doing the work just as we did with Longimanus. :D

The roof worst luck is gone so a lot of work needs to be done on getting a solution to this and making it strong (race strong as I plan to drag this on a few occasions as well as use it as a shark work ute).

more to come soon :wink:

Question how do you make a nude SC :oops: :wink:

answer rip the shit out of her and lay her clothes out for all to see :twisted:

The reason for this depravity is to sand blast her and then put her back together new and like a hot 20 year old 8)

Good luck with her Ian and Al and keep the pics coming....!

So are you doing a full resto then? :lol: :lol: Serious stuff indeed. Reminds me of that guy sticking stuff like that to a wall.
Phase 2, find a donor schwimmwagen for a transplant, use the tailgate as the swin up dive board add some rod holders. Done.
Imagine what you would do if you knew you couldn't fail.

Back from the sand blasters with lots and lots of work to be done to bring this one back to life but in the end it will be worth it.

Looks like you need to find a donor roof for that one.
You should try and find a barny roof for it 8)

Al has been working on the roof problem but if any one has a donor roof can you please pipe up ?. After longimanus and my son's bay $$ are short but any help would be very much appreciated. Yes Leroy a barny roof and back window would be grand ??? We can even work with a DC roof and cut it down so any donors around please pipe up or PM me or Al

Thanks guys

I may be able to help with a single cab roof. I have a REALLY rusty SC to pick up that also has another SC front cut sitting in the back. I am in Canberra though so it may be a bit far away, though these things can normally be sorted through DSK, so let me know if you are interested and i'll try and get some pics.

Could you use the front roof clip and rear roof clip from an 11 window to make a SC roof. Remember seeing a single cab from Finland where this had been done. Let me see if I can dig up a photo.

Cheers

Marty, any help with a possible donor roof would be immensely appreciated - we ended up picking one up off ebay but it wasn't a full roof (cut just in front of the b-pillars) being off a dual cab.....if we could find one that had some rear corners as well that would be a huge time saver.

Steve, we did think of using the rear corners off a small rear window bus being wrecked but Ian wanted to stick with the sharper corners of the single/dual cab.

cheers guys
Al
