Now your mate with the spare parts, do you think he would sell me the upper tailgate ?
After one with no rust and with the glass intact if I can find one.

Cheers.

I thought about re-registering but wife says no.

Re tailgate, what colour do you need as there is one on eBay?

I am now a permanent resident of Sydney.

Thanks Dave. I'll have to get your contact details.

BTW, I never did ask about the trophy your FIL wanted to give me to remember Bucko.

I have it here, I've been keeping it safe.
Happy to drive up to your place and drop it off one weekend.
We're in the Dural area.

Doesn't matter what colour Ron as I would re spray it.
Good condition and if I could afford it !!!
Everything else not important as my interior trim and stuff all good.

Ah, yes. tailgates aren't cheap. Contact Bundalene of this forum. His son was stripping P38As and there may still be one left there.

Alternatively, try Anthony at AJG Spares in Esk, Qld http://www.ajgspares.com/

They were stripping a P38A (maybe more than one) - the spring conversion set I bought came from them.

I can't convince my wife to let me register it - even for 6 months. She reckons I'll never do anything with it.

I always tell myself "I'll keep this one while I fix my other one."

Perfect excuse to register this one for 6mths.. Get the EAS all micky on your good one.
