Jeep rear lights and interesting graphics.
Ready for home.

Interesting layout.
Work started by sanding the paint.
New steering components.
Suspension parts and driveshafts.
plenty of chequerplate.
Donorcar yields correct seatplatform panels.
And seats.

A whole lot of UJ's on this car!
very useful donor car.
Lots of useful parts here.
This one yealds a hardtop and seat, but is moved on to a new owner who gets it back on the road in no time!
