Re: Father Son project
Time for another update , it is raining outside and I could walk out to the garage but then you wouldn't get any progress pics .All the body and panels are now polished and hung with panel gapping done to the best of our ability , which wasn't too bad . Work has begun on mounting all the lights and stainless trim around the car
when are you going to finish it?

Re: Father Son project
Time for an update . Most of the exterior trim is now in place and filling in a bit of time with some interior work . Headlining is nearly complete with just the 4 corners to stretch up and glue into place , saving the best part till last 
. Underlay and carpet is now in and also pillar cover and seat belts , just a few more little filler panels to make up and cover with vinyl , The original filler panels were no good so went to the wreckers and got an interior panel from a commodore tailgate with some curves and cut them up , that worked out perfect and covered them all for the sum of $5 .

Re: Father Son project
Bloody magnificent job there Ratty, headlining looks great and should be schmick, love the contrast between the carpet and the seats very cool and the trim on the outside just breathtaking buddy. You should be extremely happy and proud mate an excellent build, thanks for sharing with us build starved regulars. Your efforts are greatly appreciated I just wish there were more fellas like you on the forum. Thanks again.
