Re: Father Son project
It’s alive , engine back in the car and running . Sounds like a drag car , will be a shame to put the rest of the exhaust system on . Hopefully it’s posted so you can see something

Re: Father Son project
We are a little bit undecided as to which tyres to choose , price may be a factor if we can’t pick a winner . Red wall is just red electrical tape at the moment and is a little bit lighter than real tyre and the goodrich is photo shopped . What are your thoughts ?
when are you going to finish it?

Re: Father Son project
Nice work Ratty. I like the red even tho white is more the era. I don't think the BFG letters suit, as, to me, it looks it into that 70"s-80's period.
With all the chrome and stainless fitted up it will look a treat.

I agree. But that's just one blokes opinion.... red stripes just don't look right to me. The rest of the car is bloody great!

Re: Father Son project
Red tape is the best in my eyes.
Hope you use top quality tape cause I reckon the cheap shit will fly off.

There is a bloke in Ballarat who does painted walls, any colour you want. From what I hear they are fairly hard wearing, & can be touched up. Reckon the red looks good with the red interior.
