Hey crew! New 60 owner in Perth, Western Australia! Just bought it as a cheap 4wd but i must say I'm now inlove with it! Such a beast and so full of character. Its not the fastest or the most comfortable to drive but its definitely the coolest! Stock dngine and 3 speed was surprised how well it went in the sand dunes.
Anyway i need a few little things to make it a pearler namely a drivers window winder mechanism and window wipers if anyone has some spare please let me know.

Cheers guys yeah i picked it up from Geraldton just happened to be in town at the time haha. Yeah the gearbox crossmember is pretty rusty but thinking of giving it some love and maybe even a barra turbo conversion my mechanics looking into it seeing as I have an fg turbo wreck sitting there at the moment but still not sure what to do with it yet.

Just checking, did you ever find a solution for the window wipers? I have the two exterior wipers. I am searching for a source for the interior side wiper.
