This vehicle was found in Queensland Australia. Two vehicles were combined to make the one you see.
You may note the metal side panel on the body is made from the GPA deck panels and the floors and frame are also GPA.
This vehicle is still driveable. No offence taken with sarcastic comments!

Too bad it does not have the back end of a Ford GP to make it the most appealing restoration project "down under".
Thanks a gain for those great pics

Hi Rick,
I think you will need to do a little body work to make that GPA sea worthy.
"Great Buy". :D
If you get board with it you know one OZZY that will be happy to take it off your hands.
Best regards
Richard
