Hi Tony and Tim,

Many thanks for that. For some reason I had in my mind that you had a wagon.... Yep will give Rusty a ring :idea: I'll probably have the kickboard and rear cardboard matched to the grey of the door trims to it all fits together in terms of colour.

Can't wait for Wangaratta either!

Thanks Tim. I'll just get the trimmer to paint them so they 'fit in' to the general grey colour which varies...

reupholstered front seat with original insterts and close match new vinyl and original vinyl on the back
original trim on back seat
original door cards
reupholstered front arms rests with original vinyl
reupholstered bolsters with close match new vinyl
reupholstered rear cargo with close match new vinyl

so the general theme is nothing matches... :ebiggrin:

Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and
oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital
ingredient in beer

Spotted your wagon this leaving the motel next to my house this morning. Looks and sounds even better in the flesh.
I was driving out of my driveway in my FJ but you never even noticed! Anyways congates on the build.

BTW i noticed a few FB/EK's at the motel over the course of late last week. Was going to come over for a chat, but each time I wandered over people were no where to be seen, and I wasnt keen on knocking on random doors.
