Love the start of a new project.
So much to think about and plan.

Wheel's finally made it down from the hood (jhb). I'm thinking get them sorted in a matte black, just need to find someone down here who walks the walk and doesn't bullshit (as is often the case with companies down here)

Re: Przybylski's Speed Shop Single Cab
Thought it be good to give it an update.
Car is still sitting in pretoria waiting for police clearance. Pretty annoyed now, feels like it's dragging on. If anyone has any contacts there, I'd be keen on knowing.
Have been collected parts like mad. These include wooden slats for the load bed, SA kit for Bugger to do his stuff, vintage badges. 2 cow hides for the interior, a nice banjo steering wheel and a reconditioned set of twin webers.
now if only I can get it over to Bugoff to do his magic, I'd be a happier man

Re: Przybylski's Speed Shop Single Cab
The parts you are assembling sounds amazing! Love the safety star.
Can't wait for some more pics.
Why not try the wheels as they are first? They look pretty tasty from where I am sitting...

Plans are afoot to get it into Ferdi's yard, thanks to Bugger. In the meantime, this arrived at my address in London.

Re: Przybylski's Speed Shop Single Cab
The rear will be converted to a swing axle setup, the front is another story. I'm struggling to find someone who can narrow a bus beam here in SA. I'll bring dropped spindles with me from the UK but ideally want to have a 4" narrowed beam up front to tuck those porsche rims in nicely

Not a good idea to play with life and limb components if you don't have a good idea of what you're doing 
If it's too low, you're too old
