Hi all,
This is my first build thread, I am bit new to this, so take it easy on me.
I picked up this Hx ute from a guy in Sydney, from a member on this site actually, some of you blokes mite remember it when it was for sale in the cars for sale section.

Had it for almost a year now and thought it time to make a start on it.
It had a 253, trimatic, bango diff, acrylic paint (7 out of 10 job) not bad interior good wheels and was low as ......! well low.
Plans are to strip back to bare metal, cut rust out, new 2 pac paint, build a 355 stroker, trick up a turbo 400 and slot a 9 inch diff behind all that and then we see how much coin is left to see what happens next.
Already made a start with the rust, tell me what you fellas think. Its got the usual suspect areas but not to bad. Cowels good, roof gutters good, doors and guards all good.20121231_143215.jpg20121231_143133.jpg
