Ha...! I will try not to leave you guys hanging any more...
Will get some more pics within the next few weeks and post em up...
A stupid mistake on my behalf, I got the trimmer to install lap belts across the back seat. That was'nt going to fly for rego. They want lap/sash in outer seats... More time, more $.

I am going to get Kevin Humphreys to take a look at it as the car will be down Central Coast way getting the suspension finished off so hopefully there will be no dramas...

Some Updates...

Yes, a while between drinks I know. Some updates for you all...
Had the rear-outer seatbelts re-done to conform with appropriate laws. Kinds sucks, the black on the white, but theyre seatbelts.. what are you gonna do?

A shot of the dash, Mooneyes Tach and gauges.. Had some Peterbilt cabin switches sent out from the states, all with a different coloured jewel in the end.. will get some better pics of these if anyone is interested... A bit over the top but it matches the other stuff... matching diamond jewelled cigarette lighter as well... kinda cool...
Image
Had the exhaust done... Originally the extractors were a 2-piece item, i had them re-joined to make one, then split into 2 flowing through 26" Smithy's Glasspack mufflers for a nice crackle. It sounds hot. Will organise a couple of Samson Fishtail tips to go on there soon...

Dad fitted the new filler neck. It's now one of my favourite parts of the car.. Smooth as.. Its a stainless Deck-filler from a yacht.. comes with a simple key to unscrew the cap and the cap is chained to filler body.. No more leaving fuel caps at the servo...
