he obviously wanted something different, and how much more different can you get than an EA 'tunna it could look a whole lot better, XR front, bigger wheels, lowered, etc etc i reckon it looks pretty orrite, and a great basis to start an awesome project... |

There was a company called The Aussie One Tonner company that did these. Commodore and Falcon one tonne conversions. Don't know if they are still in business.

Looks alright to me
It has to be a damn sight better than a XF ute.

I like it and I know which I would choose if I had the choice between that and an XF/XG ute. I have seen a red one very similar to that driving around the Frankston area in vic.

the panneled in sides at the rear chassis and not having a window after the doors are the only things that look "a little bit" iffy about it.....
