    Looks like a late series 2a shorty. Wide lights, proper hinges, metal 'dash'.
    Body looks surprisingly straight but i'll bet the rust isn't just superficial.

    Home made brackets, by the look of it.

    Late 2a LWB, Wide eye, single wiper motor, Hex nuts on windscreen retainers instead of older wingnuts, was a 4 cyl, originally. (provided that's the original box).


    I'll take the tex-magnalite......

    You HEATHEN!

    Yer looks pretty ratted to me. Chassis will be rooted, holden motor has probably chewed the box and its had a hard life on the beach so diffs will be well worn.

    Worth stripping for ancillaries and parts and sending the rest to Sims though.

    Nope.

    The military clips sit at the front edge of the bonnet. These look like the S1 clips, with the little "butterfly" retainers on the bonnet.
