Newbie Flattie owner as of yesterday

Jeepfreek81, PM'ed ya........

Its complete and runs.

 

I vote for putting in a stock drive train.

Good find....keep us posted with the progress.

 

Here are Better Pics...








little bit more holes then I thought, but the frame is still solid and the body and stuff are too... only holes are lower t-gate, pass floor and tool box bottom

 

What was some previous owner thinking when they put a sweeping needle speedo in that dash??!!!

Considering it has the side steps still on it and not rusted away, it can't be that bad! Mine are long gone! Weld it, fill it, drive it! I might have a fender in my shed, dunno.

Needs round taillights! (mine are hanging on to the rustout) As you can see, no side steps left, lowers are repaired & bondo'd by P.O. Home-made windshield by P.O. (I am installing original this year)

 

one step is there, the other is gone, but it looks like it was removed, not rotted off. Between the buick speedo and the maverick tail lights It looks real funny.

With fenders and a drivetrain she would be rolling... but the soft rubber brake lines need replaced as they had cracks, and i thinkt he master cylinder is seized, brake pedal wouldnt move.

 

Love the Chevy Vega tail lamps! Its got potential, I say keep her stock.

 

ahhhhhh, VEY-ga! I couldn't place where those are from! I see you need motormounts too! We may have some of those too down here!

 

Vega? I was thinking maverick. It has potential but someone tried to smooth the back with bondo where they bumped something, though it is not bad. They filled the body lines too though, thats where itis rusting.

it needs EVERYTHING under the hood, mm's to battery tray. Though I can make one of those if need be, or rob one from a Junkyard YJ to get me started. I priced some fenders and stuff through willys overland.com and the fenders were the priciest thing it needs for the most part...

 

Plenty of good used fenders, hoods available all over the net. Likely a better fit and price to boot!
