yep! i think my blood pressure has dropped back down to normal now (well at least till it hits the street )
can't wait for the paint to harden off so i can give it a buff and get rid of the couple of spots of clearcoat overspray.
cheers, luke.

nice job Luke.

[Stygian]

Good stuff Luke, looks great. Wish I was at the stage of putting chrome back on...

[Rusty EK]

Well done , looks good , must feel good to get to that stage

[Devilrod]

coming along though.
cheers, luke.

Looks great Luke, but the tedious part is now to come. Puting it back together takes time and patience. I found out obout that, you can't hurry things. Cheers Graham

mmmmm burgandy ek

very nice

[matches]

got a bit more done,

kimmy thinks i take up too much room with the car

front and rear windscreens are in (does anyone know if fb and ek front screens are different?). side glass is in,




interior is pretty much finished, just got to save up for some scuff plates.
cheers, luke.

[EKjimmy]

lookin good luke. did you do the screens yourself? i've given up on my rear one. neeearrrrlllyy got it but its got one little leak. friggin things

[matches]

nope, one windscreen mob tried (put the rear in without any sealant and couldn't get the stainless in right, chipped the hell out of the paint, couldn't get the front in at all so they walked away from it) then another guy put them in for me (he told me that there is about a 8 mm difference in windscreen height between fb and ek, measured the ek screen and fb screen i have and sure enough there was).
cheers, luke.
