    My first ever car was going to be a hz ute but didn't have enough money ,(still the same now)the bloke had a hq panelvan that was sad but straight and he gave me that for a $100 ,started sanding it down , never finished it and found a hq ute , much better I thought .it came a heap of new bits and all new rubbers so started on it bought a 253 n 4speed from a mate put it in and drove it on a drum and no front panels straight out of the extractors cool then got offered the ute I got the eng from painted it then had it until for my first regoed n finished car will try and find a photo then try and put it up
