Just keep after it and it'll come together. It looks cool enough now patina'd so if it were me I'd get it all running and right before i painted it. Again, nice work!

Takes a lot of stamina to finish a project like that. They wear you out, every time you turn around you have to fab something, modify something, tweak something, etc.

Probably the biggest hurdle is finding a decent tailgate shell. Most of the Australian examples are rusted out. What are the front seats out of ? Great build! Alan Jones
