    Ideas For D2 project

    As some of you know I picked up a wrecked D2 and am tossing some ideas around as to what to do with it.
    It was involved in a light role over. Basically it runs OK has done 79000kms and is a V8. The biggest issues are a damaged roof and drivers side rear quarter. Are these hard to replace. They look like just spot welds. The front guards, bonnet and drivers door also need replacing but that is pretty easy.
    What other options or bodies could I consider?
    Just looking for some ideas.
    Oh got the keys for it today and it fired up straight away and drives fine.

    The rear panels from the rear door back unbolt and are removable, all the screws are behind the inside trim.
