    The Boys Series III SWB

    Gday All
    Bought this for my eldest boy about 6 months ago. Its been a slow process so far but its getting there. So far stripped down but not chassis. I am of course jumping from 1 area to another. Putting dual Batteries under the rear seats using a Cole-Hearsy system. Extended the roll cage in the rear. Putting retractable seat belts in both front and rear. The seats in the rear are SAAS racing type seats which are hinged so we can get to the batteries. front seats are out of a mitsubushi magna, tracks underneath are an easy conversion to the original seat rails. Covering roll cage with insulation. Covering insulation with vinyl so it looks neat and tidy. I am having to rewire dash. We are also in the process of recovering the dash board and glove box panel with vinyl. motor is in pieces as is the gear box.

    Will update again soon.

    Thanks
    Bazz

    Thanks Guys
    Half the time I am working on it myself (Dads are sukers some time) which I dont mind. The Boys are wrapt. The oldest boy has just turned 16 and is worried that we wont be finished by the time he gets his licence.

    Thanks

    Gday Guys
    A few more photos. Finally got bash plate bent up today. As I said I jump from 1 project to the other. picked up checker plate to line doors which will be the next small project. Making up jack stands out of scaffold screw jacks when completed I will post pic's, cheap solid option.Got to replace all the brakes and wheel cylinders, front 2 are leaking so bugger it do all at once so not dicking around later. The SAAS seats are pretty tall and not much head room looking at the roll cage, once roof on it is about 4" clearance. note the hinged seats this was so I could get access to the batteries. Seat belts still arent bolted but that will be soon.

    thanks
