Could be a change of plans and going down Saturday now due to Sunday looking miserable. Won't know for sure until Friday and depends how the front end alignment goes....

Ok couple more pics courtesy of Nekro. These were taken at John's cruise night. Car still needs a good wash and detailing but wuth Stage 4 water restrictions I'll settle for driving it!!

As you can see I only have a tube grille in at the moment (Curtain Rods! :shock: ), when I have finished a few things I negelected to do around the house over the last few years I'll make some brackets up to fit the over-riders for that toothy look, maybe...... Oh yeah and a little bit of striping front and rear.

Sure is nice to drive! I've also picked up a Nasco locking fuel cap minus key but at the right price, free!!!!!

Top class Devilrod. Love the customising. You should be stoked with the result. Will we see it at the Nationals in Forbes?

Nah actually Pete (Striper off the HAMB) will eventually do it. Whodaky's is a little to fine for a custom, I just want some fat basic lines.

Blacky the centre caps are actually old Chrome grease caps I have had for years.

SRV , I shortened the front gaurd side trim and put it on the door. Simple and clean.

As for the FB/EK Nationals, not sure I've still got more to do....

SWEEET AS!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D
Cars like this give me a horn :oops: .
I love going to a rod and custom show where there are seas of '32 fords and yank tanks, you spot the custom holden and zoom in. You end up taking more photos of that holden than you do of all the other cars put together. :lol: My hat goes off to you Devilrod it is one sweet EK.
