I thought you were selling this car, did you decide to keep it?

I had the same 66 back in 1995
181 front beam and reduction box gearbox with LSD differential
There was a body lift between chassis and body
16" split wheels with Firestone tyres


Image may have been reduced in size. Click image to view fullscreen.



Then I build a 67 panel split T2
front beam and rear axle were removed and the split chassis was bolted/welded to a 72 bay window chassis.

My last off road, a 74 181.

Playing in the mud was fun, wish I have kept the T2 Very Happy
