thanks for the blessing Simon :)

I thought it was on a suitable chassis and I knew if I had it wrong, you  would put us right

The real problem seems to be finding a good donnor without paying over the odds. At least if we go for the Rino Ray's option we know we are getting a good rust free body which should have some sort of guarantee on it. I know it's alot to spend on a vehicle which is going off-road, but it is also a safety thing, not just cosmetic, a few dents and scratches you can live with, the ammount of rust ours has it is likely to collapse if it gets knocked too hard (!!!) and as I use it as en everyday vehicle it does need to be relatively resilliant (spelling).

Stick a blitz body on it... loads of fun :-)

fram:
That's another thing we were thinking of. The problem is we also need a practical vehicle that has room in the back for two fair sized lurchers. It's a bit of a squeeze for them now......supose we could just put their leads round the tow hitch!!!!

I am a new member and found myself reading your posts on bodywork problems. I am in the last throws of a full overhaul on my 1986 SJ413. The rolling chassis is done and Ive just turned the shell on it's side on a trailer.......... WELL theres rust and more rust. So tonight I started building a complete new floor pan in box steel and galv plate......wish me luck !!  :shock:
