This is missing the front subframe (Camaro/Nova style). These utes had leaf spring rear suspension instead of the coil springs used on sedans and wagons. The one-tonner pickups had a full chassis with the cab and front sheetmetal mounted on it.
This is a new subframe, but after it had "the treatment" from my dad. Outside painted in black Hamerite, inside received a thick layer of Tectyl ML. The state it was straight from the factory was abysmal; very thin layer of paint, that had chipped away in places. Rust was already setting in, but with the coat of Hamerite, that shouldn't be a problem now.
