Me too, I thought the chopped wagon was on the move again.

I'd say Mini's enjoying that Cadillac cruising rather than being stuck in the workshop (can't blame him for that) :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hi guys, still waiting on it to be sandblasted... Then the dummy fit up.
Yes I am enjoying the caddy but am thinking of selling it to finish the wagon off

I seemed to of lost motivation over the last 18 months on the chopped wagon... But looks like i found it again this week and cleaned up the shed to drag it out.. Ive done more on it in the last 3 days than the last two years lol.. Yesterday i took the old diff out ad got it ready to put the shortened commodore one in. Then i put the subframe back on well sort of cant line two holes up.
Tomoorow i will finish that then put the hadfield front end in. Hopefully i can put the chassis kit in on Sunday. Cheers

hi mark be sure to take it to a trusted blaster when you do , avoid flat panels and harsh grit or pressure.
ive heard so many times blasters stretching the metal or warping or shotpeening ,

this is one car thats going to attract its fair share of attention when your done.
