    Project Rhodi

    Hi All, herewith my next project, a rebuild of a Series 2. Purchased on eBay and shipped up from NSW to Brisbane. The vehicle is an ex-army Command Reconnaissance 88" vehicle. Not in too bad a condition since it is 53 years old, with the panels relatively straight. Have been flip flopping from restoring to rebuilding and have decided on a combination. Will replace the items that are always problematic with aftermarket ones. Anyhow look forward to sharing the good and the bad and getting some good ideas from my fellow members.

    And a few more hours and this is where i am at......

    Surprisingly everything came off nicely, no hacking, cutting or sawing required. I think those challenges are being reserved for the chassis.
