HOLDEN REVIVAL WITH DIY RUST REPAIRS , PARKED FOR YEARS CLASSIC CAR SURVIVOR AUSSIE 1 TONNER UTE

This episode we are back working on or humble hard worker Holden 1Tonner, we found the tonner parked for almost 2 decades at a closed concrete plant near the town i grew up in, Last episode was your classic "Will it run" but this time its a few steps further with some rust repairs , floor pans and lots of work inside to get the classic survivor Holden 1 step closer to back on the road running and driving.

The Tonner, from factory is quite a parts bin special: HZ with HQ front panel. Guards must be HQ as well. HQ, HJ indicator stalk. Didn't get the multi function column stalk that HX onwards has. Unique Holden letters badge on the front, instead of the lion badge in the grill. Basic, easy to repair bumper, grill, and indicators. The indicators look like the same as on a 6x4 trailer. Ineresting comparism with my FG Falcon cab chassis, which is basically the same as the FG sedan, from the front doors forwards.
