Nice car,good to see another one treated right 8) Was the roof originally red? it's really weird to see you guys going outside the square if it isn't.

That last pic I see the guys have been using nappisan on the white surfaces, no wonder it looks so bright and clean :lol:

Keep up the good work

Thanks Andrew, it was either Red or Grey with the Red and Silver trim.

Can't wait till it's finished.

Canadian hell drivers - maybe these cars were the ones fitted with the mythical Canadian blocks ?????? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Had a bloke tell me the other day he had a Canadian block speedway motor in an FJ years ago - apparently you could bore them out 250 thou :roll: :roll:
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

I'm guessing that the guys at the panel shop are happy you chose them. The quality of their work looks great! Good plug for them too Steve, not often you find shops willing to work on our old girls.

EK looks good, can't wait to see it sign written!
