Hi just brought myself a mini pickup project (big project) was looking threw eBay and this popped up and I have allways wanted a pickup so I went and had a look and I had to have it even tho it's a wreck ino it can be saved with time and money put into it. So this morning it was delivered and after work i started cleaning up and sweeping the rust bits haha. ATM I'm finishing my mk1 project once this is done I shall make a start on this but I could do with some help on what to keep whats rare and what panel should I tackle first? Is there a certain panel that needs welding first before the other panel goes on? Abit of input on how you welded yours up would be great😀 Enjoy the pictures thanks Tom

Ha, what is the plan for it, I am the right age to remember ones like this as a daily driver van earning it's keep, as much as I love a tuck and poke and a hayabusa lump up front and one in the back for ******* and giggles I think it would be nice to preserve it's awful interior and BL era style?
