Appreciate the comments. She will be on her wheels next month. Looking to do the interior next including a new wire harness. Cheers

Bloody Brilliant ! Getting in and out will be a ritual with the knee knockers as low as they are .
True appreciation of this lies with those who have a vision and dared to be different themselves. Keep up the good work on your Mild FB .

Got the braces off, now a rolling chassis and starting to look cool.

15 inch Chrysler Charger wheels, the rear axle is a combination of 3 different f*rd models providing us with 4 wheel disk brakes with the same Chrysler stud pattern.

I think you need to change its name to WILDFB not MILDFB!!
Any progress?

Some progress... We installed a new REBEL WIRE hotrod 21 circuit wiring loom, mounted the fuse panel under dash and made a new gland under the drivers side mudguard so will be hidden in the engine bay. Also fitted a VY commodore wagon 1600KG towbar, a little bit of rework was necessary and will bolt up to the bumper support as original, as well as bracing to the body forward of the fuel tank.

finished converted Commodore VY 1600 kg towbar
Serious Chrysler disk brakes front,
No need for a "Bare metal" re-spray, I think if the paint is still good after 50 years then why get rid of it, just blend the scratches with a bit of 360 wet and dry (wet), then Hi-build primer putty, its all grey now and looking good.

Getting some nice days to paint

Be interesting to see this beast finished ...

What colour are you blokes thinking of painting it?

Hi Guys, thanks for your interest, we will paint the standard FB yellow/white Colour scheme, yellow roof with white flash. We intend to enter the car in the 2016 Kustom nationals in Philip island in January. It will be unfinished but we will assemble what we have and make it as complete as possible, then trailer it to the site, you are all welcome to praise or scorn as you see fit. We welcome all comments as I realize it is fairly unusual. We fully intend to drive it to the 2017 nationals however. Graham

Looking Good , keen to see further progress .

nothing like a nice rear end!

Looking good

More progress, she looks all muscle here. good access with removable guards and inner guards, why don't all cars do this?

Car will be on show in January at the Kustom Nationals at Philip island, unfinished but drive able. Come and have a look.

We will be here and Philip Island Kustom Nats 8-10 Jan.
Car is drive-able but not finished, check it out, hopefully we can get a run around the track...won't that be cool.
