was very simple to chop that far... i was going to ute it and kept it for that but it just got to rusty and i bought a newer ute so thought why not whilst i was cutting it up

to get this far

removed hanging panel removed body bolts... pulled wiring disconect fuel lines etc cut cut cut .. 3 discs and a 9 inch grinder

should have undone the fuel tank straps as they bolt to body had to do that with it half way off


rolled it onto ute by myself.. dropped off out the front of metal recyclers casue brighty didn't want it...

giggled my ass off when brighty told me he picked it up from metal recyclers :D
