im starting a complete rebuild of an 1986 sj410 van that i bought a few weeks back, i hope its ok to stick up pics and info as i go, so far iv bought and stripped it and have the chassis,axle wheels and other bits and pieces away to get sand blasted and painted. The body isnt in too bad a shape and is gonna be welded in the next week or so. iv had to replace the doors bonnet and wings with good used ones. comment away, thanks
