Re: Father Son project
Looks beautiful Ratty, your doing an amazing job.
I especially like the rear on shot, the trims and tail lights against the wet looking black paint looks killer

Re: Father Son project
Thanks for looking in and comments guys ,much appreciated . Newbee the whitewall tyres are just some second hand ones from the tyre shop just to get it rolling , must be old because they are hard as a rock . Two different brands one is Pirelli and other Michelin .
when are you going to finish it?

Re: Father Son project
Have been busy whilst on holidays , pity that is now over . Still a heap of little jobs to do that soak up lots of time . Ride height is set although I anticipate it will drop a little bit more once it hits a few bumps and everything settles . Still waiting on a few shiny bits to return and a few other bits then hopefully back on the road

Re: Father Son project
Top job, hope you have soaked it with rust proofing, you don't want to go through those panel repairs again
If it has tits or wheels, you can expect trouble.

Re: Father Son project
Yep all hang on panels and concealed areas soaked already and when it is finished it will go up on a hoist and inside all inspection and drain holes underneath will get the same . Shouldn’t rust again hopefully .

Re: Father Son project
Beautiful looking car. Are the wheels staying as is, or caps/covers going on?
