Thats awesome

,So the house still stands even afyer the motorway just missed them .
Maybe if anyone is out that way ask the old lady or man , I guarrantee they will still be there

Also with that FECK Holden this difference in door height had to be dealt with ,although the other way around .

that 'fk' looks pretty amazing-Wouldn't be a particularly easy job seeing as they had to change everything from the front doors forward.
As for removing the vertical slats in the grille...how the heck do you get the horizontal ones to stay in place after the verticals are gone? I'm guessing you'd need to make a bracket or weld/wire/tie/superglue

them in place?
Pulled mine apart a while ago and realised it's not quite as simple as taking out the verticals

I just cheated and painted the verticals black
