Here's a little update after getting all the parts together and seeing what i can use, and then the panel work begun. The bonnett is complete waste of time and money, the surface rust has taken hold and it also looks like the kid i got it from, paint stripped it, but left the stripper on, and has gone to crap, so i'll need a new bonnett. Paint stripped the tail gate, and started work on it, it's a new one, but has had some panel work done, so i'm guessing it's been damaged from stock or something. Any way, i have started to repair it, and file finish it and hope to have it done, by the end of the week, but i'll see how i go.

I have a 308 (304) out of a VL coming next week, it'll be soon stripped down, acid cleaned, and a heap of goodies to go in, but i'm in no real rush to get the motor done, there will be a 355 crank going in.

Been looking around at a brake upgrade, and i'm thinking of using some Wilwood calipars, but not sure if they'll fit, wait and see i guess.

here are some pics of my tailgate.
