Hello all just bought a 1985 G LWB

Europa import


I bought it on ebay, but ended up trading the guy a car for the G. Has some rust mainly the rockers (they are toast) getting new ones ASAP. Anyone have experience with replacing them? Lot of welding or are they bolt in?

Get the inners to. If the outers are gone the inners are probably toast to.

Re: Hello all just bought a 1985 G LWB

Other than the rust issues, you bought a nice G. I'm sure you will have lots of fun. Keep us posted on any restoration stages. Don't be afraid to post/ask questions here.
