Half repaired






Il do the other half as soon as i can, work is super busy at the moment...

Just acknowledging what everyone is saying here. It's very skilled work technically. Not my cup of tea. You took the words right out of my mouth Billy. Neither is Summernats or the show car scene but I don't bag it, on here at least.
I think Harv's point is that there is a general rule on this ...

this should be like facebook and have a like button harv so i could like your post :thumbsup:
people if they don't like something should just quietly appreciate the work gone in until they have done something better as an example of what they think is correct :ebiggrin:

quite possibly the single biggest waste of time in automotive history. 11,000 + hrs
impression was built in 12,000 hrs, and look at the lines on that car.

the proportions are all wrong, the idea to use a late model (R33 skyline) cab to begin with is $*#@ stupid. followed by the most horrible color ...

I removed the original paint from the boot lid.








Its not too bad, there's one decent kink in the middle of the skin, but i should be able to shrink that down.
More to come soon...

Good luck with the project and look forward to seeing some pics. Sounds like your going to be busy for the next 3 months. It takes me 3 months to get organised to change the oil on my ute!

Hey man!

no, not going to lean the pillar forward, its just ...

Hey Fellas,

Thought i might throw something up for anyone that wants to see. Going to be picking up my sedan from Bootlegger in the next few weeks. He has so gracefully kept it sitting there for me for some time, and it is so very appreciated.

Plans are to build a custom cruiser, something i can ...

but Obviously Cragar doesnt know what his talking about, and you would have thought if spray chief was so bad they'd be out of business a long time ago... I know if i get something wrong the first time i use it then i always blame the product.
