bit more info
it was bourt on ebay we were exspecting it to be for parts but when it got here we realisd it was far to good to brake and started on head gasket and found ther was nothing missing it even has an under tray
it had never been welded and has all its trimes so we started the rebuild
its done 150k and the cross hashing is still in the bores

rebuilt the hubs 2day still need 2 paint drive shafts so will fit in next couple days
