ProZac Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 If you can figure out a way of getting it to you, I've got a pretty good condition cab down here I wouldn't want much for, doesn't seem to be rusty really. I've robbed the headlight mounting panels from it as it was a twin round headlight one. PM me if you want to investigate further :-). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tortron Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 honestly i have already replaced at least 50% of this cab. theres no more original mitsi rust left (im sure theres some in the lower rad support but meh thats easy). if i had sandblasted/dipped this cab when i first got it id be all over a different one, but i think im on top of it now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tortron Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 unless you wanna cut all the cab mounts out for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about the 55th of May lol. But here is a bit of useless trivia. These were pressed in Palmerston North at a company called Coachwork International. They were the only company in NZ to have a press big enough (400ton) to emboss the lettering on the tailgate. They stamped all the major brands wellsides back in the day due to local content rules. Mildly interesting... or not 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tortron Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 55th day of the year..... It's how many manufacturers date their stuff  But yes that is mildly interesting Apparently NZ trays are different in a few ways than other countries. All in ways that involve less work being done. An Aussie guy keeps saying it's not OEM and I keep saying yes it is NZ made their own for the above content reasons  NZ trays have a folded rather than pressed/beaded cab end panel (others have one that's like the floor of the tray) The panels Infront of and behind the wheel wells are flat, others are pressed like the centre floor Inner tie down rods are welded in, others are bolt on We have flat/folded wheel tubs, USA has rounded ones Our fuel flaps are below the swage line, so are flat and easy make. Aussie and USA has theirs on the swage, so another panel to press.  All the stuff is the same dimensions tho 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rb drifter Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 My rear panel is one fold, numberplate mounted with rivnuts. I like it but it's obviously been redone at some point. I also have a shaved tailgate and checker plate floor on my tray. Swapped the shaved tailgate out for an original one because I like to rep mitsi haha 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
